In response to (naviarhaiku470)
Music's everywhere
the sea, the wind, the rain, the
storm, the raging fire.

... I kept thinking of the Native American folk tune
Oh Great Spirit,
earth, sun, sky and sea
you are inside and all around me.

Same energy: Music= Spirit.

Song by Leonard Cohen.

Hallelujah (with Richard Fairhurst)

I don't really like to explain what my songs are about simply because I hope that listeners have their own personal connection to them.  However, if you look up the definition of an Incubus you'll see that it's not very nice, and so, for this tune, I feel I need to explain that I'm using an Incubus as a metaphor.  What for I'll leave you to decide.  Thank you for listening 🎧

INCUBUS
© Joanna Finnis (Produced by Oliver Lodge)

You will never love me
You're invisible
But I feel you everywhere
Hoping I don’t care
It’s how you survive 

Feeding off my soul
Killing everything thing I love
And still you hide
Deep deep in my mind
And crawl beneath my skin 

I know what you seek
But I’m not that that weak
I will fight you taking over me
Satan in disguise
An Incubus of minds
 I'll keep you falling out of love with me
  
Seep into my body
All dignity
Try to take it all from me
Twisted games you play with me 
You bring no peace

I will always fight you
Saving everything I love
And still you hide
Deep deep in my mind
And crawl beneath my skin 

I know what you seek
But I’m not that that weak
I will fight you taking over me
Satan in disguise
An Incubus of minds
 I'll keep you falling out of love with me

I won’t let you love me with your lies
I won’t let you love me with your lies

Incubus

Among the four great masters of Japanese haiku, Kobayashi Issa was the most prolific: during his lifetime he wrote over 20,000 haiku, hundreds of tanka, and several haibun. If you want to find out more about this prolific author I suggest you check out this database of his haiku.

A bit of melancholy just before the end of the year. I like it so much, even though I'm basically a cheerful person :-) . Just as I like to say Dr Jekyl and Mr. Hide. Mostly the less positive events and news evoke emotions in us. It will sound like a cliché, but as a person gets older, he has already experienced more different events and therefore often thinks about the situation in the world, disputes, wars, etc. And although we are one planet in the Universe, one blue ball, one animal species, so animals often treat each other better than humans. But that's just the way it is, I can only state it. End of philosophizing, have a wonderful new year everyone, as you wish. We will "hear" each other again next year. I look forward to .
