Still Sleeping

Gently interrogating,
As I met her eyes 
She was already smiling...

No more a girl, 
But more Girl than Woman,
Much-desired ‘child of the world’, 
Carefree, and cosmopolitan;   

So, I say something rude 
Hoping she’ll laugh at herself,
But this time she won’t, 
And I wish I’d said something else; 

Oh, maybe she’s just too much loved 
And no longer needs to pretend,
Or is it simply an act she always does,
For all her brother’s friends?

There will be dancing on the lawn tonight,
Bodies moved by frantic music in the starlight;

‘No,’ she jokes, she won’t hear my excuses, no,
But I’d much rather we go walking all alone,
And talk of all we know and dance some star-lit dance all of our own.

Bathed in the late sun,
Summer spelled to sleep the tiresome trials 
Of one who dwells the most on what is gone,
And too much on a stranger’s smile;

And in the evening – 
When she came down – 	
Her hair, still wet, close-cut and brown;

Oh, how she laughed with ease
And wore her beauty so lightly,	
As if it were some truth but half-perceived,
Though always known to me;

There was dancing on the lawn that night,
Bodies moved by frantic music in the starlight;

Late it was when we walked out together,
The air was sweet, her hand was warm, and I can still remember
How the wheat stirred in the light breeze blown from the Heavens;
How it felt like thieving Time was beaten;
And when she laughed, that all the world had been forgiven.

Gently interrogating,
As I met her eyes 
She was already smiling…

Always known to me

Woke up in a daze;
So mingles light with shade 
In the stillness of the tomb,
When Morning stands guard ’side my room,
And lifts the gloom,
But bears me away from you. 

So begins another day,
Which as your lingering presence fades,
Will in a vacant heart resume
The weary waste of love unused –
O, and my dearest wish again refused,
Remembering how we’d kiss and waste the afternoons,
Yes! This life of longing is a life abused.

You would rise while I would sleep,
The watch your faithful eyes did keep
Was the measure of a soul
Made generous by the wisdom it holds;
Tender and hopeful and whole,
And so I slept, troubled not by dreams at all.
  
Soon I would stir and meet your gaze,
Where now its lingering presence fades,
Back to the grave your ghost exhumed;
This weary waste of love unused –
O, and my dearest wish again refused,
Remembering how we’d kiss and waste the afternoons,
Yes! This life of longing is a life abused:
This weary waste of love, of love, unused.

Woke up in a daze

This audio piece is an improvisation by Mohammed Rowe & Olivir Haylett, using prepared guitars whilst incorporating various extended techniques. In post production, Oli then took the audio and further processed the session onto tape, transposing it and running it in conjunction with the original improvisation to form this composition. Initially we both recorded a long improv session and then reduced it down to 3 shorter takes, we decided to share this take named “Gasworks”.
Mohammed Rowe´s work include found sound, experimental and improvised music; compositions tend to draw from the immediate environment. Collaborations with artists from different practices continue to enrich his own approach.
Olivir Haylett utilises field recording techniques and tape manipulation; he filters and simultaneously emulates the sounds of the environments we inhabit. Performances are immersive meanders through textural sounds and noises which, through repetition and volume, aim to play the room on the edge of feedback.
