The Dynamics of Groove

note book

there is a worn notebook collection of songs blueprints frayed at the edges from hours, days, years spent underneath the machine tinkering with word placement the edges frayed the paper sometimes coffee stained the ink runs where liquid hit the page these songs, while just created, are ancient timeless yes, this notebook is a series…

secret walk

i have a secret walk that is not so secret it has no special door or key or access code it does not require a fee in some ways, it may be circuitous maybe it seems not very direct to those who know that i take it to get to a particular destination it’s not…
