YOU (POETRY)

You

April 2nd, 2004

Waling through a field of gold.

Thinking about you.

Should've done what my instincts told,

now I don't know what to do.

To me, silver & gold he gave -

but I wanted more.

I didn't want anything save

that you'd walk back through the door.

*Totally awesome. Can't wait to put in an electric guitar!*

((Anything with an asterisk at the end of these are notes I had originally paired with the poems. Yes, I critiqued my own work even back then - and always put in Post-It reminders when it came to musical additions.))

001. I'm Perfection - Not Just a Pretty Face

The above Cover features my sister as the model. I don't think she knew how often this would occur. Cover art above is an interesting photo of my own tattoo. One of the few where my sister isn't what you see. This, however, is the symbol I created for our little backyard garage band which, tragically, never made it beyond this stage. There are a number of demos - complete with cover art - just sitting in a box, yearning for meaning. I figured I would dedicate this blog to my lyrics, videos, and old music. The majority of which, I should mention, have no real music with them. Eve of Destruction , formerly known as Havoc Angel, Tsiehta Anomaly, and Zees Lipstick, was comprised originally of 2 singers, a drummer, and a dancer who could play brass instruments when asked. The drummer, Nikki "Angel" Hart, disappeared from our circle in 2012. Worse than that, none of us miss her. Our Brassy Dancer moved to California. She's now in L.A. trying to make it as an actress...

"Today, Tomorrow, & Yesterday." by Alanda McRae

Wandering through a brain-fog trying to find the words. Following the tune I hear so clearly coming from the birds. The rain falls all around me, still trying to find the trail. Through a fog I cannot see, longing to set sail. No matter where I go, it's the same as where I've been... Driving me insane. Will I ever see the sun again? Does brightness ever reign?

006: Call of the Wild

It's just a thought Merely passin' through my mind. But I'll give it a shot, I'll let you see me shine.... I got a spotlight - just for me. It's outside - shining so brightly... Comes out every morning... Lights up the sky... Yeah the sun is shining like a spotlight just for me.... Sets my soul a-soarin' free. When it's stormin' outside, it's like strobe lights. Strobe lightning on a dance floor Happens every night and it leaves me beggin' for more. When day & night collide with drummin' in the background, Fills me up pride. Makes me feel bona fide. Can't get me down with all this around. Energy. brilliance. oh so bright. Echoes. acoustics. fills up the night. It breathes, it breeds, it shines, it sings. It astounds & does everything. Yeah, you gotta love all these sounds... (x2) 'Cuz, baby, you know they're all around. (fades out) ~Alan...
