Fortunate son.m4a

Much have I travell’d in the realms of gold,
And many goodly states and kingdoms seen;
Round many western islands have I been
Which bards in fealty to Apollo hold.
Oft of one wide expanse had I been told
That deep-brow’d Homer ruled as his demesne;
Yet did I never breathe its pure serene
Till I heard Chapman speak out loud and bold:
Then felt I like some watcher of the skies
When a new planet swims into his ken;
Or like stout Cortez when with eagle eyes
He star’d at the Pacific—and all his men
Look’d at each other with a wild surmise—
Silent, upon a peak in Darien.

John Keats

On First Looking into Chapman’s Homer

Piano and vocal track. Retrospective, nostalgic, dreamy with touches of melancholy. I wrote this music in 1997 (I think), added lyrics in 2025.

LYRICS:
Darkness swells, both keys have failed
Blurry days with him
On ripples echo in
I wonder
When has my heart pounded more?
(through a door)

Camel ashes line the stairs
Follow them to the roof
The walls still reek of rain
Oh my God
Where did the afternoon go?
(endless woe)

Have you seen a witty scoundrel
Cocky stinker looking for me
Looking like me with lost eyes
Tell him I remember him

Coat of yellow curtain cloth
Swathed in wicker air
Living on turnip broth
Authentic
Denizen of Dog-Day Park's
(morning bars)

Unbending hallway
Every door an unending Sunday
Corridor: I’ll haunt you evermore
Tomorrow
There will be chandelier bulbs
(bursting boom)
(.... boom … boom….)

Wormhole of Love's Regret (Prototype)
