Everything made to date about the annoyance of male angst, even when I knew my resentment was self manufactured and stuff and junk.

Have at.

"I don't want to read aboutcha in the paper Sonny"

"Pah! You won't.  That pompous sonovabitch will get a 
twenty-three gun salute like El Supremo,
and I'll get an unmarked grave.  Just you wait and watch.
Or rather, observe the hole in the news coverage.
By its edges shall you know it."

Dealing With Incarnate Mockery

For my unrequited.

One pole of the bipolar swing even though you know perfectly well this other person was no good for you, is to nonetheless feel the sting of rejection periodically.  Going live the anniversary of Claudius's death in AD 54.

See, But I'm Harmless!

Slightly autobiographical.  Although I will add for Danika's benefit I do understand that revenge is for children and the emotionally retarded, about ninety-seven percent of music is purging demons about the significant Other.

Lyrics:


All the tireless individuation i was doing
While the normalites were screwing
Means that trouble has been brewing for a while

When we get around to settling
The imbalance that's been nettling
There may be a confrontation off the top of the dial

It takes a fair amount of being a pussy
To build a world based on passing the buck
But when the choice is between
Some of the men that you've seen
Is the cagey guy the one you want to fuck


Though it's indicated to be tough
And we wonder what's enough
I should be gentle all the same

But when the gadflies of the swarm
Were causing genuine harm
It takes a fair amount of being a pussy
To shield them from the blame

Lyrics: 

While toiling as the system's minion
I hallucinated an opinion
Of my unrequited's attributes
Pulling my hair out by the roots
For the pain that that begat

If I cannot find the path to contentment
But still get high off my resentment
Well you don't really need that

I travelled the academic crucible
until their proofs were irreducible

Though it wasn't to be seen as particularly advisable
I showed the March Hare's his map was diagonalizable

Through variation of parameters twice
And reduction of order once
I displayed to the assembled greyhairs
that I wasn't an unflattering dunce

At the end of time at school that was set
Thoughts turned once more back to regret

Mastering the yen to be vindictive
Is not altogether quite predictive

Of success to say the least
But that's the sordid nature of the beast

OctoDeka

We're Gonna Make You Do Math

I wonder if I'll get my legs broken for accidentally using this AI art.
She -was- that pretty or even more so in the 90's though.
And that's more than enough of me talking about -that-.

Now That It Costs You Nothing

Partly directed at the male-bashers on Twitter/X (RadFemHitler, et. al.) when they get a little too saucy.

After Foul-Mouthed Parrot was a nine-minute moon shot of sorts, I decided I needed, at length after a bunch of Itch.IO instrumentals, another vocal piece but I didn't really want to run a marathon again.

So I took some of the accumulated lyrical ideas and built something short.

A Fragmentary Modicum Of Sense

It would have been a real marathon to get lyrics for the entirety of the original instrumental, CXLVII for which the link is below:

https://soundcloud.com/doug-stoothoff/i-understood-you-to-have-no-further-use-for-me

 ....so I came up with this ...rather different compromise.

Whimsy #2's (Track XIV) instrumental gives the intro some help between :09 and :14...

Lyrics follow below:

I understood you to have no further use for me
But a day'll soon come when I cease to be

And in the vastness, the echolalia of my mind
Conjures your image, yet I'm resigned

Something tells me chimeric love
Would have fit us like a mismatched glove

Leaving me to suck hind tit
A terminal case of staircase wit
Let's put the shallow shit by the wayside shall we
This love, an ephemeral reverie
A quixotic panoply  

I understood you to have no further use for me
An evanescent spree, 
A serpentine bond, so lacunae

In life's fervid, threnody
To wander, an ephemeral ghost, in this quantum sea
Where once was you, now just me

And in the vastness, the melancholia of my soul
Reminds me of what's now beyond my control

Fate whispers to me, an oneiric love
Would have been a paradox, not a glove

Marvelous Drug, Testosterone (Alpha Remaster)

Submission for Weekly Note Composing Jam #6 hosted by emscottish for Itch.IO February 2025

combining works of (Faridoddin Abu Hamed Mohammad Attar Nishapuri) Sufi poet aka Attar ('apothecary') of Nishapur c.1145-1121 AD
and Scottish poet and lyricist Robert Burns 1759-1796 AD

lyrics:

The sea will be the sea,
No matter the drop's philosophy.
(Attar of Nishapur)

We are busy with the luxury of things
Their number and multiple faces bring
To us confusion we call knowledge Say:
God created the world, pinned night to day
Made mountains to weigh it down 
seas To wash its face 
living creatures with pleas
The ancestors of prayers seeking a place
In this mystery that floats in endless space.
(Attar of Nishapur)


Talk not of love, it gives me pain,
For love has been my foe;
He bound me in an iron chain,
And plunged me deep in woe.  
(Robert Burns)

From each, Love demands a mystic silence.
What do all seek so earnestly? 
Place not so firm a value on self-reliance,
Love’s tide erodes what we grasp so thirstily.
Love is the subject of their inmost thoughts,
In Love no longer 'Thou' and 'I' exist,
No musing upon what effort brought, (me)
For self has passed away in the Beloved.
A form which vanishes into mist.
Now will I draw aside the veil from Love,
And in the temple of mine inmost soul
Gaze on the void’s eternal bowl.
Behold the Friend, Incomparable Love.
He who would know the secret of both worlds
And has the opaque pall unfurled, (me)
Will find that the secret of them both is Love.
(Attar of Nishapur)

Cold, alter'd friendship's cruel part,
Open wounds stung by brine, Love. (me)
To poison Fortune's ruthless dart
Let me not break thy faithful heart,
And say that fate is mine, Love. 
(Robert Burns)

Embers Of A Broken Dawn

A funny track about some discussions on Twitter/X lately, it's frankly on the weirder side like Word Salad and Yes-No Column, Come To Life!

But after hearing it multiple times (like most of my things) it improves.

Lyrics:

There is difficulty to a significant degree
When battling people engaged in hoaxing
And we can clearly see
Because Hesiod said in seven hundred BC
Do not let a woman who decorates her buttocks deceive you
By wily coaxing
Because she is after your granary

Bewailing her lack of taro root
A redhead libertarian was destitute and snarked
That she didn't have a favorite prostitute
A contrarian most resolute
But a boon to have at your back during a dispute
Now that we were in cahoots, to entertain her sense of humor
I related to her the past events

If you don't quite have the stomach for horror
Try still to conceive of if you can
The complaints of a commoditized man
That vultures caused American culture
To became a jump ball for Sodom and Gomorrah

When i was younger and very very loud
I was a disgraced propagandist doing his username proud

Her lines were remarkably sultry
I was lost in thought staring at the shininess of her boot
Musing that the first step of any meaningful pursuit
Is to severely underestimate its difficulty

The one-night stand sarcastically complimented me on my range
I said you were the one to talk
But then she recommended as a dietary change
Brazilian Quinoa and Equatorial Donkey Chalk

She was quite amazing wearing fishnets
But when her lasciviousness needed satiating
Nothing quite got her wet like contemplating
Malicious compliance to get the idiots and shills upset

As i got older the fatter became my manila folder
I wondered if she'd gone too far
When she was grinding to WAP in a bar
Then berating me for touching her on the shoulder

The root of their lawfully sanctioned insurgency
Was a deeply felt need of urgency
Their transgressions begat the need to talk sense
But either they were in denial or awfully dense
Like Private Pyle they were too fat to climb over Chesterton's fence

The libertarian drew back agape as I was seized by
Poetic demons, my tongue unbound by whimsy’s cry  

Now peep their quisquilian rout, all clowned in disarray
A pox of poltroons, too shook to gainsay
Brains so obtund, they’d quaff their own toxic drip,
I smack their feckless rebellion with truculence no slip
And big up the gibbet that cancels their weak-ass affray

She smirked, Thy florid rant doth vex me sore,
A bard’s bombast best left to yore’s grim lore

Thus spake Hesiod, neath Boeotia’s dour sky 
Shun maids who cozen with a venal eye
For when iron reigns and kine grow gaunt with blight
Avaunt their guile, lest chaos claim the night

Jump-Ball For Sodom And Gomorrah

Okay this one goes way back because the original instrumental track is only the -sixth- in the line up (VI) released in March 2023.
I assert that fact that the original is so tiny, it doesn't really violate the originality restrictions of the game jam.  Which might be a stretch but here goes.

There are easter eggs in it from Dissatisfaction 4 (XLIX) for those wondering at some odd shifts like Myxolidian scales up and down.

Lyrics: 

Imagine a boot so big somehow
That we have to start licking it now
In case it might exist some day
A fear that just won't go away  

I started life on a diet
Of solitude and quiet
But rosiness did not prepare
For the jungle out there

And once I had thoroughly got their gist
I saw through the plot of my nemesis
To churn out carceral urbanists

Your agency is proportional to the number of people
You can handle being mad at you at the same time
But a contrarian mindset sometimes
Cannot exactly turn on a dime  

My supposed social betters
Took on the workforce fetters
Because they gamed Goodhart's law to the letter
While I’m left to dream of something better  

I was wanting to have my cake and eat it
But the cost made me feel so conceited  
I’m trapped, still living under their thumb
While my heart keeps beating to my own drum  

The consequences gradually got meaner
I suspected the grass is greener
seeing the glass ceiling's pretence
drove the lure of the other side of the fence

One thing that I have found
Comfort is the devil's playground
But colocated with silent grief
Escapism gave me some relief

But Rose-colored lenses
Still don't conceal systemic defenses  

In time regret ebbs and flows
A cycle of longing that grows
Energy flows where one’s attention goes  

It’s not necessarily a race
Rose-colored glasses can’t erase
The truth that I have learned to face
Dissatisfaction expands to the available space
  
I muse on vales, zephyr pure
Far from mire, no rancor’s lure
Ascendance blooms, I endure

Dissatisfaction Expands To The Available Space (Extended Lyrical Version)

This has the second-most drafts of anything I've done (eight) behind William Tell Should've Known, recently with 12 drafts.

This Male Hypergamy Stuff Is Hard

A therapeutic journey into a mix of jazz, classical, and a blend of types of electronica.  And a wry, gradual observation that promotion tends to only go as far as you push it.  At least I make my fellow musicians laugh a little.
