Millions of Simple Lights

Меня Нет & Rick van Meijel - Final Awakening

Small prize for spotting the small quotes from Bach's Bourrée II from the English Suite No. 2 in A Minor, (BWV 807: VI. Bourée II) that I played on classical guitar for my A Level music exam practical, having transcribed it from piano.

LOOKING AT THE TWO OF YOU

Looking at the two of you
When we were little we would play
Acting like the three of us
Being grown-ups everyday
Where on Earth have you lot been?
Hope that they’ve got some for us
Knowing that we’ll miss the bus

I can’t hope but - say that the monkey’s gone
You can’t tell me - that you are completely done

We know that the world is flat
We got grandad’s hat down off the hat rack
Three times
Hat trick
Nutmeg
Christmas carols on the green
Easter and we’re on the dunes
Sometimes we are never seen
Up the trees like big baboons

Looking at the two of you
Acting like the three of us
Waving at the pair of you
Drowning like the three of us
Laughing at the two of you
Laughing at the three of us

Should auld acquaintance be forgot
And never brought to mind

Looking at the two of you
When we were little we would play
Acting like the three of us
Being grown-ups everyday
Looking at the two of you
Acting like the three of us
Waving at the pair of you
Drowning like the three of us
Laughing at the two of you

You and I both want to see the world
Even they know there’s nought beyond the edge
Dragons and beasties lurk behind our hedge
Our dog Bessie won’t eat any veg

Looking at the two of you
When we were little we would play
Acting like the three of us
Being grown-ups everyday
Where on Earth have you lot been?
Hope that they’ve got some for us...
Knowing that we’ll miss the bus

I can’t hope but - say that the monkey’s gone
You can’t tell me - that you are completely done

We know that the world is flat
We got grandad’s hat down off the hat rack
We know that the world is flat
We got grandad’s hat down off the hat rack
Three times
Hat trick
Nutmeg
Looking at the two of you
Acting like the three of us
Where on Earth have you lot been?
Looking at the two of you
Acting like the three of us
Where on Earth have you lot been?
Hope that they’ve got some for us
Laughing at the three of us
Knowing that we’ll miss the…

When we were little we would play being grown-ups everyday...

I since found this:

Luke 12
51:  Do you suppose that I came to give peace on earth? I tell you, not at all, but rather division. 
52:  For from now on five in one house will be divided: three against two, and two against three.

Spooky!

Looking At The Two Of You

Nightfall is the sonic interpretation of transitioning from a corporeal state of being to a non-physical condition. Moving through a liminal experience and arriving at an ethereal resting place the listener will be conscious of this nightly experience.

Nightfall

I would like to apologize in advance :)

Sustain poem is part of 'About Sounds About Us' 2019 book of poems.

'Sustain

There is a way to generate 
a multitude of undefined spaces
Sound designs density and sparseness.
It’s in endurance, the iteration of pitches 
processed.
Separate what is spurious and ancillary. 
Disclose the pieces.
Deconstruction over construction.

While I walk
I scan the clumps of dirt.
I wonder about the gram of mud.
Sustain each second
of us.'

「敵」　北原白秋（1885～1942）
いづこにか敵のゐて、
敵のゐてかくるるごとし。
酒倉のかげをゆく日も、
街の問屋に
銀紙買ひに行くときも、
うつし絵を手の甲に押し、
手の甲に押し、
夕日の水路見るときも、
ただひとりさまよふ街の
いづこにか敵のゐて
つけねらふ、つけねらふ、静こころなく。
出典　日本の文学17　中央公論社1973年

“a foe” by Hakushū Kitahara (1885-1942)
There is a foe somewhere around me. He or She is hiding himself or herself.
The foe is following me whenever I walk outside. 
When I walk near a brewery.
When I go to a wholesaler to buy some silver papers.
When I press a copying picture on my back of the hand.
When I look down a waterway in the evening.
The foe is always hounding me. 
My mind never gets rested
