Lyrics:

My name is midnight, my name is cold bones and whispers.
My name is night-thoughts, call me the color kisser.
My eyes are streetlights, shadows, mosaic mirrors.
My mind of wet-winds, spitting shiny terrors.

Doo doo doo, you know it’s how I roll…
Superpowers in small hours, you know it’s how I roll...

Next to crumpled cardboard, a patch of alley flowers.
The limping legs that, measure city blocks into hours.
Smoking circles round bus stop pageant contestants,
A bag of brain-juice, to help create and imagine.

Doo doo doo, you know it’s how I roll…
Superpowers in small hours, you know it’s how I roll...

In subway echoes and Broadway battles,
that make the doors slam and windows rattle.
Superpowers in the smallest hours,
reciting rainstorms from the dollhouse tower.

Doo doo doo, you know it’s how I'm gonna roll…
Superpowers in small hours, you know it’s how I'm gonna roll with it...


Superpowers

Dedicated to Tio Flamingo and his family.
Logo property of the Boston Bruins.
Lyrics:
Remember when we
were jamming with Jennie
A thousand songs…
all night long.

Chartreuse in Rio
con Tio Flamingo
The Voodoo Chile
who crossed the Nile
in Boston style…

We’re South American 
when winter is in the wind
strumming green guitars
under Santiago stars.

So the puzzles of the pyramids still loom…
But the black and golden bees buzz all your tunes.

Whoa…

Drink and be merry.
Vodka Cranberry.
Jerusalem…
Just another stop for him…

We’re Super Mexican 
when winter is in the wind
strumming green guitars
under Mexicano stars.

So the puzzles of the pyramids still loom…
But the black and golden Bees buzz all your tunes.

Tio Flamingo…

We’re South American 
when winter is in the wind
strumming green guitars
under Santiago stars.

So the puzzles of the pyramids still loom…
But the black and golden bees buzz all your tunes.
So the legendary trickster made his escape.
I’ll meet you on the next world, don’t be late.

Between Weft And Wind

Duet for clarinet and bassoon, inspired by birds on telegraph wires. All the notes are "on the lines" of the stave - not in the spaces.
