The Bold And The Blasphemous

This song is dedicated to our beautiful black cat we named Coco.  We adopted Coco when she was just a few months old and she had the softest black coat of any cat we've ever seen and her eyes were like huge round butterscotch candies.  We adopted her and her brother during COVID in January 2021.  On November 2, 2023, at the tender age of 3, she ingested something poisonous and we were immediately forced to make the decision that would end her life far too soon.  

This song is a mix of hip-hop rhythms, acoustic guitar, synths and classical strings.  The abrupt ending signifies Coco's departure from our family, much too early.

Ghostly Frequencies

An erotic poem that allegorises the final stage in the process to birth the Philosopher's Stone, known to alchemists as the Marriage of the Sun and the Moon or the Peacock's Tail.

Cover art: Detail from The Garden of Earthly Delights by Hieronymus Bosch (1450-1516) 


I know a dell where the willow mint grows,
Where bluebells chime in the midnight hallows,
And bowers of may and honeyed suckle
Curtain the congress of loving couples
As paired collard doves are cooing in swoon
At this, the Marriage of the Sun and the Moon. 

The Peacock’s tail is a courtesan’s fan 
As he dances a slow Bharatanatyam.
The Rose on the Throne folds back her calyx
And releases her nectars into the Chalice
For the bee, so lustful ...and yet so tender
At her grace, at such sweet surrender. 

Deep in this Garden of Earthly Delights
Sleeps Beauty, sometime of the night,
Her perfumed lap that poets eulogise.
All the Love of the world is in Her eyes.
And there, the Serpent is rising once more
To fire up the ways and open the doors.

Lyrics:
Brooding sea, oppressive day, a panorama in disarray,
A resolute light will find the way from a horizon hideaway.
Forever theme, the mystery, the recurring history,
The bitterest veil on what we see becomes a new reality.

All in time, all in time, let the story fully unwind, 
All in time, comes the clue to the riddle of “why”.
All in time, all in time, the biography will fully unwind, 
All in time, see the crack in the cover of the sky.

Climb the mountain, stormy day, broken boulders block the way,
You’re losing your hope, begin to pray, 
- to a summit that’s farther away.
Sudden break reveals a beam 
through the fog blotting out the dream,
It’s guiding the way to the brilliant day, 
that’s just above the grey.

All in time, all in time, let the story fully unwind, 
All in time, comes the clue to the riddle of “why”.
All in time, all in time, the biography will fully unwind, 
All in time, see the crack in the cover of the sky.

Clouded years, distorted fears, oh, no no no.
Waiting ‘til the crack appears, oh, wo-wo-wo.

Instrumental 

All in time, all in time, let the story fully unwind, 
All in time, comes the clue to the riddle of “why”.
All in time, all in time, the biography will fully unwind, 
All in time, see the crack in the cover of the sky.

All In Time

The Dance

Your head on my shoulder as if in a dream
The music box plays as I rock you to sleep

And we danced 
Yes we danced
Oh that dance
That we danced

The years and the distance, no matter the time
Our song it still plays, never changed in my mind 

And we danced
Yes we danced
Oh, that dance
That we danced

And now your light, as it shines in another’s eyes
You dance 

To see you and to hear another song 
As you dance

Forever my little girl

From my seat, in this place, and on your day
I smile, close my eyes, and I’m proud to say

That we danced 
Yes we danced
Oh, that dance
That we danced

We Danced (A Ballad for Caitlyn)

Amiga soledad

Estoy sentado en la cama
de mi triste habitación
y veo tras la montaña
el lento ocaso del sol.

Despacio va anocheciendo
pero qué me importa a mí
durante el día presiento
muy negro mi porvenir.

Mis canciones y mis libros
mi guitarra y su paz
son los únicos amigos
que acompañan mi soledad.

Estribillo

Amiga soledad, amiga soledad,
compañera de almohada
en las largas noches de invierno
de esos difíciles momentos
que la vida nos depara
y que nadie los quiere escuchar.

---------     

Espero que algún día
la alegría vuelva a mí
y poder ir por la vida
sin dejar de sonreír. 

Pero aunque todo varie
y consiga renacer
siempre que te necesite
en ti me ampararé.

Pues de niño me acogiste
y siempre me fuiste fiel:
el calor que tú me diste
conformó mi forma de ser.

Estribillo

Loneliness friend

I'm sitting on the bed
from my sad room
and I see behind the mountain
the slow setting of the sun.

Slowly it's getting dark
but what does it matter to me
during the day I sense
my future is very dark.

My songs and my books
my guitar and its peace
They are the only friends
that accompany my loneliness.

Chorus

Friend solitude, friend solitude,
pillow companion
on the long winter nights
of those difficult moments
what life has in store for us
and that no one wants to listen to them.

---------

I hope some day
joy returns to me
and be able to go through life
without stopping smiling.

But although everything varies
and get reborn
whenever I need you
I will take refuge in you.

Well, as a child you welcomed me
and you were always faithful to me:
the heat that you gave me
It shaped my way of being.

Chorus
