In another dimension, Nirvana released a 5th album. There is a playlist linked in the Bio if you want to hear it. Cover Art by @art_by_demonbaldwin

In this scenario, Kurt Cobain does not die in 1994. He does have several relapses before successfully completing a rapid detox program, where he temporarily gets clean from opiates, and can finally think straight. He begins divorce filings, and talks to Krist, Dave and Pat about breaking up Nirvana, or at least going on a long hiatus so that he can pursue a solo acoustic album, and more importantly; avoid major tours and label commitments.

Geffen, however, says they owe them one more studio album, along with the planned live double album (Unplugged/Wishkah). So they hatch a plan to provide a compilation record similar to 'Incesticide' (1992), using a few new songs they recorded in 1994, along with outtakes from previous albums, and revamped unreleased/non-album material. The result is a second compilation album, and Nirvana's 5th and final full length album, which is appropriately named 'Formaldehyde', referencing the chemical used to preserve the dead.

The two songs in this post (Talk to Me / Do Re Mi) were never recorded in a studio, they are built from poor live audio recordings (and studio mockup by the great Riot Earth channel). Either one could have been a single in 1995.

Track list:
1 - Talk to Me (Riot Earth Studio Mockup using 1991 live footage for vocals)
2 - You Know Your Right (Nirvana, studio recording form 1994)
3 - Verse Chorus Verse (Nirvana, Nevermind outtake, 1991)
4 - I Hate Myself and Want to Die (Nirvana, In Utero outtake, 1993)
5 - Sappy (Nirvana, No Alternative hidden track, 1993)
6 - Do Re Mi (Riot Earth Studio Mockup, appears on Montage of Heck)
7 - Curmudgeon (Nirvana, Nevermind outtake, 1991)
8 - Moist Vagina (Nirvana, In Utero outtake, 1993)
9 - Even in His Youth (Nirvana, Nevermind outtake, 1991)
10 - Oh the Guilt (Nirvana, Split Single w The Jesus Lizard, 1992)
11 - If You Must (Nirvana, Bleach outtake, 1988)
12 - Old Age (Nirvana, Nevermind outtake, 1991)
13 - D-7 (The Wipers, Nirvana cover, 1992)

“Tome of Stars” is a 100 sonnet journey, equal parts art, therapy journal, and exorcism, both a celebration and an elegy, a single narrative arc tracing the birth and death of a relationship. All poetry by Stargazer. The verse and accompanying synthetic art and music are public domain, CC0, with no restrictions on use. Nothing is monetized. See below for links on how to access the print, PDF, audio, ePub, video, and music files.

The third section of “Tome of Stars“ is “Sporogenesis”, a haphazard chronicle of the years 2011–2020. It marks a shift from the cataclysm of “Senescence" into a period of withdrawal and emotional hibernation, its eleven sonnets seeking to reflect the padam of the collection’s bharatanatyam-inspired structure.

This sonnet marks a profound moment of vulnerability and trauma. Written after the poet’s introspection during the pandemic lockdown, it captures his attempt to explain his past failings in love in the context of deep psychological damage from childhood trauma. The speaker opens himself through a written letter, earnestly believing this revelation may bring his beloved to appreciate fully his love for her. The poem narrates not only the introspective awakening but also the subsequent pain of receiving no reply. In that silence, the beloved’s absence becomes newly devastating, not only as loss of presence, but as an indifference to the poet’s most sacred truth and profound trauma. The final couplet brings this pain into a physical metaphor, ending with the speaker’s torment persisting in the face of emotional annihilation.

Lyrics

In quarantine’s long shadow, time transformed.
My mind embarked on quests through sleepless nights,
Exploring past mistakes, ardor deformed,
Unearthing reasons for our stillborn light.

In dream-wrought worlds, some truths I’d come to find;
I loved you worthy of a mythic tale,
But could not shatter shackles on my mind,
Nor unmake fiend’s corruptions and prevail.

My thirteen pages bled from mangled heart,
Confessed in raw vulnerability;
No lack of love had ripped our worlds apart,
But shadows cast by past monstrosity.  

Long years this open wound, where’s your reply?
Starved vultures rend my flesh. Yet I don’t die!
