Crossing The Teign With The Window Down
it was love at first note
the wind and the bass solo eloped
straight out of my car
[I was crossing the bridge at the time
but this is their story not mine]
seven miles out bopping on the sea
the notes rearrange as they please
delighting the dolphins with their atonality
It's always interesting listening to what other people make of your work. There was some confusion as to the identity of those eloping. I hope this version makes it clearer. Here is another revision. You can read the earlier draft here.
the well at the world’s end
she had walked to the edge of her world
it took as long as you’d expect
and was as difficult as it sounds
at the world’s edge
she found her holy well
truth be told
the people who drew their water
from it everyday
saw it in a different way
but kept their own counsel
grant each of us the eyes we need in this life
Again the changes hopefully improve clarity. Plus the layout is tidier. Thank you Secrets.
Here's some reggae. I was listening to Merger's one and only album yesterday. Wondrous stuff. Here's them live on the BBC.
And this is the full LP.Until next time.
