Automata Exhibition

This is Third in a series of Poems That Jo Richter has so Generously let me use. Anyone that has ever tried to write lyrics for a song, knows that good lyrics are hard to come by.  When i first read jo's poems, it was and is a cathartic experience. I hope i made a good song out of this GREAT Poem..

OLD SONG

Met the girl that Dürer drew
Spoke in dreams she did to you
Spoke of morphic co-creation
But, alas, she's no relation
Of the mage that has no clue

Took a girl to a ball on the moon
Where Milton's soul served on a dune
Had some bourbon, died of fear
Prophets wailed but dear queen Lear
Had no mercy on the loon

Venus painted on her bed
Sipped from grails of liquid lead
Do you believe, she asked, in rest
Or restauration, no man's quest
Will shroud the beauty of the dead

Was addressed on Stromboli
By a girl with eyes to see
Colours flared and clouds dispersed
On gilded shields for, oh, she nursed
Too many snakes to set one free

Found an ancient photograph
Of a girl engulfed in love
That smelled the rain about to fall
On pastures vain, she'd charmed some shawl
To conceal her just enough

Travelled to the promised land
Where the knotted throngs disband
Love's ancient goddess held a rally
In some lone deserted alley
On a rostrum made of sand

Do you know a place to be
A chalk-cast fresco asked of me
My wings are small, I cannot fly
And all my quiver has run dry
For Ovidus is exiled to Romany

OLD SONG.........a poem written by JO RICHTER (SONIC STRUCTURES AND SILENT STRETCHES)

Yesterday, Tomorrow and Now

The song Saturday Satan, Sunday Saint was written by Wayne Walker and was first recorded and released by Ernest Tubb in 1969. 

Saturday Satan, Sunday saint
Foolin' your neighbors
That's what you think
Readin' the good book
Singin' the hymns
Come Monday morning and it's back to a life of sin

Old brother Brown
All week he steals
Tells everyone
His big business deals
The deacon walks by
A dollar hits the plate
Tryin' to buy himself a ticket to the pearly gates

Old sister Rose (softly with a lilt)
In the very first row
Been a-sittin' right there
Twenty years or so
Never hears a word
When the preacher speaks
Too busy talkin' bout the bad girls down the street

Saturday Satan, Sunday saint
Froolin' your neighbors
That’s all that you think
Readin' that good book
And singin' those hymns
Come Monday mornin' and it's back to a life of sin
Come Monday mornin' and it's back to a life of sin

The seventh day of the week in many religious traditions, and the sixth day of the week in systems using the ISO 8601 norm; the Biblical seventh day of the week, observed as Sabbath or "Day of Rest"; it follows Friday and precedes Sunday.

Saturday Etymology: sæterndæg, from Sætern, from Saturnus, possibly from Etruscan, + dæg; a translation of dies Saturni. All I know is Monday morning it’s back to a life of sin. JTS

A small amount of chaos is now on Twitter

We got thrown off TikTok because the 52 second runtime of our track Big Band Theory was quite correctly perceived as being of 'prog-rock dinosaur proportions'; chastened by this, we are now here instead.
