THE RAVEN
The dark bird caws an aching creak, jarring
high in the branches of my twisted hazel

Light drips thickly - like warm blood or hot metal -
from the anvil angles of its beak, cuts short
breeze, divides still water, and settles
deep in the silence of the little pond beneath

It is not the tawdry light of the mind
where still limbs, still torso, still breath pull close -
become justified - where truth is vulnerable to age

Nor is it the light of secret gardens, of mists
unsettling and godless clarity eclipsing everything

An illusive bat mapping shady new worlds
by shriek and wail.  The old owl's careful murders
These fears swoop in the cool of night

But this raven comes with the light.  Hopping and strutting
Gently tip tap tapping.  Its black glint encumbering
ornamental cherry trees, beach and oaks with ease

And it brings the white-hot light of fear.  The clarity of danger
The fat weight of doubt that lingers near
The crack in peace.  The spark of both death and change

From the very beginning of our relationship, my wife Jo had always wanted me to write her a love letter. We have been together for 34 years and, in that time, I’ve written her 3 love songs, which she often says are very special and mean so much to her - and yet she would still remind me that she’d never had the love letter she had always wanted.  So the idea occurred to me that I would write her a love letter within a song.  I wanted to make it a surprise, so had to write it in secret, which in itself was no easy task.
Once I had something I thought worked well I decided, although possibly difficult, to play this song with it's personal expression of love to someone who I knew would give a totally honest opinion.  That person could only be my brother Gal.
By the time I sent him the secretly made demo, I’d convinced myself it wasn’t very good so it was something of a surprise when he said he absolutely loved it.

Even as I was writing the song, I always had Gordon in mind as the best person to work on it with us.  He’s such a sensitive and tasteful player and the arrangement he produced, along with Gal’s drumming, proved the perfect vehicle for the kind of ‘love letter’ I wanted it to be.  Without their consummate skills, none of the following could ever have happened.    

The original plan was to play Jo the song on Mother’s Day but I’m afraid excitement got the better of me so, on the very day Gord sent the final mix, I decided to reveal the big secret. I suggested she listen on headphones, hoping that would help give the kind of immediate intimacy and connection I wanted her to feel.  Watching her listen, I was feeling more than a little nervous but as the track continued, she grabbed my hand and started to cry and continued to do so after it had finished, telling me that she now had her love letter and that it was the most special thing ever.

It was something I’ll never forget and, as sentimental as all of this may seem, I make no apologies for this love letter to my beautiful wife Jo and the perfect moment it gave to both of us.
(Terry Reeves) 

Dear Jo 
When we first met love at first sight I never knew
I had never felt could you to feel the same way too
Two long years to get the strength to tell how I felt
The fear inside you would smile and make life melt
Life was far too short to keep a secret to myself
When I explained you didn’t leave me on the shelf

Dear Jo, Dear Jo Dear Jo, Dear Jo
Dear Jo, Dear Jo, Dear Jo, Dear Jo,

Dear Jo 
A lifetime in your arms can never be complete
Do it all again my heart would miss a beat
Hanging by my fingertips showing I want to stay
Every single second and every second single day
A chance to tell you how much I love you I always will
Creation of a love storm, from the start we made it real

Dear Jo, Dear Jo, Dear Jo, Dear Jo
Dear Jo, Dear Jo, Dear Jo, Dear Jo

Dear Jo
We were meant to be with each other there’s no doubt 
Some tried to separate our love by loudly shouting out
Our love never about anybody else just you and me
Knowing that the end result didn’t need an apology 
Heads up looking forward three children by our side
Memories are for you and me our time machine will glide

Dear Jo, Dear Jo, Dear Jo, Dear Jo
Dear Jo, Dear Jo, Dear Jo, Dear Jo 

Dear Jo 
You always wanted me to write you a special love letter
All the words you deserve are so hard to put together 
No time to apologize for the difficulties I have caused 
Not the plan I promised and like you I am so confused 
I said many times I wouldn’t change a single thing
All my love is yours you gave my voice a chance to sing

Dear Jo, Dear Jo, Dear Jo, Dear Jo
Dear Jo, Dear Jo, Dear Jo, Dear Jo  
Dear Jo

In his final days,my father vividly saw things which obviously weren't there. He was otherwise sound of mind,so this was very odd. That's when I found out about Charles Bonnet syndrome.

Charles Bonnet syndrome causes a person whose vision has started to deteriorate to see things that aren't real.

The hallucinations may be simple patterns, or detailed images of events, people or places.

They're only visual and don't involve hearing things or any other sensations.

It's important to be aware that hallucinations associated with Charles Bonnet syndrome are caused by failing eyesight. They're not caused by a mental health problem or dementia.

People with Charles Bonnet syndrome are usually aware that the visions aren't real, even if they're vivid.
There are 2 main types of hallucination that people with Charles Bonnet syndrome tend to experience.

They may see:

simple repeated patterns
complex images of people, objects or landscapes
Simple repeated patterns can take the form of grids, shapes or lines, which can appear in bright or vivid colours. The patterns may lay across or cover everything the person sees.

More complex hallucinations can involve people, places, animals and insects.


There's a great big dog
Outside my window
Why he's alone,I really don't know
I can see him there
Plain as the day

There's a small bird there
On my windowsill
If you look really hard
He's there still
I can see him there
Plain as the day

I think they're trying to kill me
But I don't really mind
I long to be free
To be unconfined
I can see it now
Plain as the day

I see myself with your mother
On a golden afternoon
No wheelchair to roll me
My legs still below me
I hope it happens soon

The Time I Nearly Disappeared

The Turtle Project and me have collaborated on a new tune , Turtle sent me the track and i toplined on it , go hear his work :-https://soundcloud.com/turtle-project
LYRICS:-
Have you been away so long
And don't know how
To pick the phone up
And utter that word "HI"
Have you sat on lonely street
And don't know why
You torture yourself
All the days and nights

I have , I do , 
My thoughts
Get in the way
I've been thinking
Too much
My thoughts
Get in the way

Letting everything pile up
Is my forte
Procrastination
I can do so well
Desire to change is something
I can't find inside
I want the world to change
How can I help ?

So I , I write
My thoughts
Get in the way
I've been thinking
Too much
My thoughts 
Get in the way

Never thought that my fears
Would ever take over again
Even after the things
That I've learned
I'm here again
But I know I can stop
The spinning of this damn
Merry-go-round
Jumping off the ferris wheel
I can land on the ground

I have , I do 
My thoughts
Get in the way
I've been thinking
Too much
My thoughts
Get in the way

A Strange Lullaby (YT video link in description)

I close my POTENCIAL BIÓTICO album with this contemporary revival of a philosophical song I wrote 19 years ago when my grandpa died.

Could describe it as a requiem for guitar quartet, 2 voices, rhythmic base & church bell (you may know the piano version at https://soundcloud.com/esemanolain-ruizzo/sets/piano-sessions-2012 album).

A mostly slow piece with lotta soul and no artistic ambition (but a little ‘Pros&Cons’ air to the end ;).

Letra / lyrics:

Miedo al cambio,  /  Fear of the change,
incómodo trabajo;  /  uncomfortable work;
molesto planteamiento:  /  annoying approach:
no me gusta lo inesperado.  /  I don’t like the unexpected.
  
A lo mejor es que no estoy acostumbrado  /  It is probably that I am not used
a ver las cosas cambiadas de sitio.  /  to see the things moved from place.
Ver a la gente irse al otro lado  /  Watching people going to the other side
es duro si piensas que todo  /  is hard if you think that everything
será siempre lo mismo.  /  will be always the same.

Ay, lo mismo ...  /  Ay, the same thing ...
ah, lo mismo ...  /  ah, the same thing ...
ay, lo mismo a mí...  /  ay, the same to me...
  
No he sabido reaccionar,  /  I didn’t know how to react,
atrapado en mi infantil ilusión   /  trapped in my infantile illusion
de que nada cambia,  /  where nothing changes,
ah, tengo que darme cuenta de lo que pasa,  /  ah, I must realize of what happens,
ay, tengo que salir de esta caja.  /  ah, I have to go out of this box.

a lo mejor es que no estoy acostumbrado  /  It is probably that I am not used
a las sorpresas de la vida,  /  to the surprises of life,
a nuevos planes que no había planeado,  /  to new plans I had not planned,
no me acostumbro a considerar  /  I don’t get used to consider
una opción distinta.  /  a different option.

Ay, distinta ...  /  Ay, different ...
ay, distinta ...  /  ay, different ...
ah, distinta a mí,  /  ah, different from me,
a mi pensamiento,   /  from my thought,
a mi forma de ser,   /  from my way of being,
a mi manera de verlo...  /  from the way I see it...

This album experiments with irregular and unpredictable structures that arise from sequences and textures colliding and merging into rhythmic and melodic sonic explorations that seem non-human-like but at the same time intuitive and almost familiar.
