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

Any feedback welcome ---
This is a work in progress, one track of my new album. It is not mixed / mastered, even not finished... just wanted to share to have some feedbacks because it takes me soooo long time to finish my projects...

Merveilles W.I.P.

Old tune from 2014. Wrote it while driving 6000 miles alone across the country, taking time lapse photos of the milky way and some landscapes in the day while living out of a tent. A whiskey and guitar were always in hand.


Whole Wild World

I've been beat up
I've been bruised
Wasn't born to lose
I've been on the run for way too long

I need a partner in crime
Someone to keep me in line
A beautiful muse for my next song

--Harmonica

Maybe I'll find her in the mountains
Where the water flows free
Wonder if she's even ready for me
With my guitar by my side
And a bottle of rye
What's the future supposed to be?

--Chorus
I will search around this whole wild world for you

I've spent most of my years defeated in love
I've failed too many times to speak of
It's just so hard to forget
I don't have one regret
This emptiness fits my soul like a glove

--Chorus x 2
--Harmonic again!
--Chorus x 2

Oscure presenze (From dark and distant worlds)

A footnote to the recent Wall Gazing EP, Spring seems to be starting to poke her head out, with a bit of hope and optimism with her. Themes of life emerging seem pretty poignant right now.

The title is a nod to April 5th by Talk Talk, which is also the date it will be released to streaming platforms. Frankly Talk Talk and Mark Hollis' long fascination and beautiful exposition of the subject, should be the last word on the coming of Spring, though what can i say, these are special circumstances.
