Balkan Dance Trance

In a dream I looked up into the dark purple, black night sky and saw a transparent jellyfish. Its upturned rim was lined with soldiers. 
" It will be a silent start to world war three" I thought....

A Silent Start To WWIII

Sensual Theorems

Mandarine Impressionist Chantilly

This is kinda dark.

Lyrics;
The empty eyes
Had seen the future
A silent heart
Had found the past

Off into the distance
An engine roars
The sound is fading
Very fast

Dead end alley
End of the road
Dead end 
is all you need to know

Yellow light darkly shines
And dimly reaches ground
Dumpsters tethered to the walls
Where treasures for lost souls are found

Moon is new
Stars beam through the dim light glare
A cool breeze
Stirs the dirty air

Dead end alley
End of the road
Dead end

The empty eyes
Had seen the future
A silent heart
Had found the past

Dead end alley
End of the road
Dead end 
is all you need to know

Dead End Alley

In The Belly Of A Scarecrow

Made it to the island
Checked in to our room
Just you and me, the ocean breeze
Double hammock under the palm trees

Cute little kitchenette
Gonna cook up something good
Some rice and beans a la Caribbean
Double espresso, feels like amphetamines

Sand between my toes
Just a little day drinking
Sea salty hair, i just don’t care
Spending days right here in a beach chair

Get up when you want to
Got nowhere to be 
Let’s wake and bake and lie awake
Walk hand in hand out where the waves break yeah
Just you and me

Checked in and checked out
Lovers at the ocean
Day in and day out
Smiling in slow motion 

Gonna get ceviche
Found a little place
Just down the road, get it to go
Take my time, I’m in vacation mode

Taking in the sunset
Everybody coming to watch it
A tiki bar, under the stars
The sweet sound of Mexican guitars

Checked in and checked out
Can’t believe we made it
Finally chilled out
We’re deactivated

Never wanna go home
Just you and me

^v^  HIGH ON A MOUNTAIN  ^v^
---------------------------------------------

Hey Babe!  What brings you here when so many seasons have gone & disappeared?
Thousands of suns & moons have drifted out of touch!
So are you gonna tell me now, we've really changed that much?

We were high on a mountain and we thought that we could fly
When the whole wide world was wondrous
Can we hold on to that time?
We were high upon a mountain and we thought that we could fly!

We all have a story and we've found our way
But are we still the people that we once were, today?
So tell me, tell me now - what, what do you see?
Do you see the angel you always saw in me?!

We were high on a mountain and we thought that we could fly!
When the whole wide world was wondrous
Can we hold on to that time?
We were high up on a mountain and we thought that we could fly!

Pretty boy you've got silver hues now!
Distinguished eyes distinguish truth...
Did your wings grow wide?
Did you fly again?
Did you touch the sky - did your dreams transcend?

What's your poison Babe? What have I missed?
Do you set the stage to show your hand or will we reminisce?

We were high on a mountain and we thought that we could fly!
When the whole wide world was wondrous - can we hold on to that time?

High On A Mountain

Nuff Said…
Dedicated to Jason Hines, aka “The Speaker-Breaker”
Thank you my brother for always pushing for another verse, another track, another production…
Celebrating you, 🌹R.I.P. my brother…✌🏽💚


Moves you make——I catch it from the corner of my eyes 
Catch it from the corner of my eyes
Just a little too late but wisdom states 
You’re not really here you died———————(when we’re here—-time flies)
I catch it from the corner of my eyes
I catch it from the corner of my eyes
I catch it from the corner of my eyes

I can feel you ——I can see you 
is it really true ——reaching out like you do 
No shouts —no cries ——when angels speak
No truth —-no lies ——to compel the weak
Have a safe trip ——have a safe journey 
As long as we remember you—-you’ll never be lonely 
————you’ll never be lonely
you’ll never be lonely

Started something—-I’m feeling it everywhere 
Ghost or spirit—-between here and there 
I’m zoning in——— it’s becoming quite clear
Matter of fact—-it make me feel——self-aware 
Everything smooth—-now it’s all ——slow motion 
I’m still here——————is that a blessing?
Caught between the drama—-the lights and the shadows
No more fear—————-another lesson 
Heaven and hell —-you believed with a passion 
Sitting back not your style—-was a man of action
Answered the call your reassigned —-a new mission 
No time for goodbyes—-there’s never satisfaction 

We’ll hold on —-you let go—
No obligation no regrets —-just peace and love——--it’s all
It all a celebration —-It all a celebration—- bro
 
I can feel you ——I can see you 
is it really true ——reaching out like you do 
No shouts —no cries ——when angels speak
No truth —-no lies ——to compel the weak
Have a safe trip ——have a safe journey 
As long as we remember you—-you’ll never be lonely 
———you’ll never be lonely—-
you’ll never be lonely

Started something—-I’m feeling it everywhere 
Ghost or spirit—-between here and there 
I’m zoning in——— it’s becoming quite clear
Matter of fact—-it make me feel——self-aware 
Everything smooth—-now it’s all ——slow motion 
——-I’m still here—-is that a blessing?
Caught between the drama—-the lights and the shadows
No more fear—-another lesson

It’s All Connected

When that title slipped into my mind it was all go and the early verse work felt bluesy with certainly blue notes to sing. The chorus wrote itself around the title with jazz chords. Changing key to the variation was natural enough but quite a long journey back to the verse again.

Art in her Bones

Out on the left - she’s made it her home
Some think she’s weird – and likely getting’ stoned alone
But I’m on the hook - just reel me in
It’s the art in her bones - that makes her what she seems to be
The art in her bones - makes a thrill inside of me 

Sometimes at night- she wakes from a dream
She runs to her paint – got to liberate that scene
Then after an hour - she’s layin’ back down
It’s the art in her bones . . .

She don’t deal with accounts and rates and supermarkets
She’s driftin’ through hazy lanes and blocks of colour
And something someone said three nights ago
She put that friend in embargo
Gotta work it through on canvas - then they’ll thaw in a tryst

They’ll work it out – those ladies of rhyme
They just need the moon – to tell them when the time is right
And me I can wait – for that special night

When she gives she’s layin over us 
Starlight curves across her body real – we’re playin’ seals
Lazy floppy as the sunlight grows
We talk of us as forever – and after that still together
Neath the door’s a gentle zephyr

Hey let us rise – it’s quarter to one
In the café - love our whacky talkie fun
The way she sees things – my soul it just sings

As Foretold

The flood gates have been opened
Darkness grows

Darkened hearts seized by hatred,
Blood runs cold

The restrainer has been lifted
Upon the lawless and the wicked

Deceiving all who perish
Holding all the lies they cherish

False signs and wonders shown
As foretold

The one who opposes all
taken hold

An influence that deludes is
What kills the love of truth

Deceiving all who perish
Holding all the lies they cherish

From the beginning, 
God has chosen you
Through sanctification, spirit
faith in truth

When the lawless one’s revealed
Exalts himself as God

An abomination of desolation
In the Holy place

The Lord descends from the clouds
With a shout

The Lord removes the lawless one
with a breath of his mouth

Just as the lightning comes from the east
and flashes west

So will the coming be
of the Son of Man

As Foretold (Temple Of The Haunted Man and Cosmic Keanu)

Del Wags is the music of Dave Wagoner: a collection of homemade tunes meant to please no particular demographic. Dave is a one- man show of rhythm guitar loops recorded in the basement, choruses born in the shower, lyrics written on the couch, and tracks mixed on the laptop (and the occasional cover). Go ahead, tap your feet.

I played only acoustic guitar and harmonica for many years, playing the same covers alone and occasionally with friends. I never thought I wanted an electric guitar or lots of music gear because I didn't want to accumulate more things. In 2019 by chance I obtained a cheap electric guitar from a friend, and my life changed as this new tool unlocked a creative door. During Covid I bought a looper and a keyboard and began teaching myself to play it, and the creative door flew wide open. I challenged myself to ride the learning curve of home computer music production. I re-tapped into my poetry-writing brain from high school and songs began flying out of me. I haven't been this creative since I was a teenager and it's pure joy.

I'm thankful to have a place here to share my creations, make connections with others, and hear so much unique and wonderful music and sound from people all over the world.
