Just some blues fun back on my Korg Radias keyboard.  A few stretches applied in Audacity.

Molded Broken Humans

when you return
don't forget my house!

The Sphinx: "My gaze, which nothing can deflect, passes through solid objects, and remains fixed upon an unattainable horizon."
The Chimera: "As for me, I am weightless and joyful."

For this piece I'm revisiting material I recorded for my project "Polaris" (2023/ revised 2026): https://soundcloud.com/velvetsomethingsuperdark/polaris and a poem I wrote some years ago:

Gegenstadt

Es gibt da einen Bahnhof 
von dem jeder Zug nach Norden fährt.
Mutter ist mal in einen gestiegen 
als sie die Wange ans Glas drückte
sah man alle ihre Zähne

Es gibt da ein Haus 
wo jede Treppe abwärts führt.
Vater ist mal auf einer gestolpert
brach sich einen Knochen im Hals 
seitdem spricht er rückwärts

Es gibt da eine Straße
wie ein verschorftes Knie.
Der kleine Bruder läuft immer 
das Kopfsteinpflaster entlang

Manchmal wacht sie auf  
in der anderen Stadt und 
sieht ihr Kindergesicht 
hinter allen Türen

----------------------

Countercity

There is a station
from which each train goes north.
Mother got in once
when she pressed her cheek against the glass
you could see all her teeth

There is a house
where every staircase leads below.
Father took a tumble once
and broke a bone in his throat 
since then he's speaking backwards

There is an alley
like a crusted knee.
Little brother always runs 
along the cobblestones

When she wakes sometimes
in the other town
she sees her childface
behind all doors

Gegenstadt / Countercity

Made for the haiku challenge 636 of Naviar records

beyond the talus
withering in the valley
- a hanging glacier

by Lisa Germany

This haiku by Lisa Germany is part of the Stay Cool project - a collaboration between Naviar Records and Red Earth Ecology that aims to promote techniques for Japanese-inspired prose and foster international collaboration.

Lisa is a multidisciplinary artist whose work begins with walking, preferably in wild places. Rooted in awe and attentive to the natural world, she writes haiku and haibun in the traditional Japanese tradition, seeking moments of beauty in everyday experience.

A hanging glacier (naviarhaiku636)

For reasons unknown but time will tell...
Multi-instrumentalist, all types of music, all types of methods.
Occasional collaborations with other artists.
Sometimes I post the sheet music if it's piano.
Lately, my favorite instrument is a TE OP-1 Field keyboard.
