NADA ZIBS - PULL UP 2

Goldregen

method: There was this poem I'd written. I asked Jeff (stonerjazz) whether he knew what it sounded like. Jeff returned a full-blown, elaborate acoustic ballad.  Mesmerizing! Just for fun and contrast , I weaved in some shoegaze. This is this song. Headphones are recommended. Thank you, https://soundcloud.com/user-911083679 !
narration: Basically, this is a second part to Vinyl Ventriloquist ("people are busy / completing first lines / ...."). People of similar age and interest will hear some allusions and few quotations. The working title 'amrita' refers to the Indian legend alluded to in the last verse. That milkmaid entered the poem via an idiom in my native language: Milchmädchenrechnung. 

poem / copyright jo richter:

the milkman who used to collect
and replace empty jars
a figment of folklore now
of pageants and rural farce

streamed into raw senses
tuned in to see to forget
there is nowhere to head to now
but right into your head

far away, some milkmaid counts
her hoard of subscription fees
to gather gem regalia
that match the icy queen‘s

and all around the watchtower
wild weeds rise and bloom
swirls of living, breathing colour
where feral painters roam

the mountain king bequeathes
fluid shards of liquid glass
to his river daughters
lunatics dwell on the grass

and orpheus, oh orpheus
sings and plays the lyre
while a tribe of nanobots
dances round the fire

out of their caves, a race
of intrepid homunculi swarm
to join the merry carnival
to feel the bliss, to risk the harm

milky oceans churned by gods
give birth to shapes and sounds
while mythical milkmen undetered
still make their morning rounds

Leave of absence - with stonerjazz

RPR08_02

I know your heart is aching
And I know the pain is real... 
I've seen you in your darkest
Devoured by the flames

We live, we love and we die together
In joy in sorrow in night in day

In this infernal night, we are waiting for the light
Through the mazes of the heart, through the darkness of the mind

We summoned the old
Turned our Mudd into gold

I've seen your deepest secrets,
I know the name of every demon you house
A dark legion fed by guilt... 
A black cloud of raging fear...

We live, we love and we die together
In joy in sorrow in night in day

In this infernal night, we are waiting for the light
Through the mazes of the heart, through the darkness of the mind

Like a flower thirsting for the sun...
You are waiting for the dawn
Everlasting night where all is dark
You are longing for the light

There are times we want to hide inside, in the constructs of the mind, but there are thorns and there's snakes, inside the shadows in the dark

In this infernal night, we are waiting for the light
Through the mazes of the heart, through the darkness of the mind

Nox Animae

Original score inspired by the Andrew Michael Hurley novel Starve Acre

Hanging day

Legends speak of a crystal pool hidden deep in an underground cave. It is said that gazing into its waters will show the watcher their fate.

Few return from its depths, and those that do are loathe to tell what they saw.
