CANNON TOMB 01:47
i'm gonna write a book in the boiler room i'm gonna slow dance with the mop & broom i'm gonna overwhealm myself i'm gonna disregard my health ... in my cannon tomb ... i'm gonna write a song someday i'm gonna write of how you help me stay ...

it's been awhile since we talked i think about that lots and suddenly it hits me all the things that i have lost why has it been so long when people fall from the air i wonder if they care i wonder if they wonder how the hell did i get here before they hit the ground ... i'd feel so much better if i'd return to the center of your eyes ... i'm in a melancholy state of mind i contemplate1 the questions that are lingering as i percolate as silly as that sounds my brain is full of grounds ... st. joseph burried inches deep trying to sell my secrets neat and cheap ...

DYNAMO 02:05
this is a bit concerning on edge with pins and needles out broken, proding and hurting on the ledge pushings not allowed ... hold me tight then let me go nothing lasts forever you know ... this is a fucking headache on knees i beg it all to stop my lifes a shitty heartache the peaks of it are drifting off ... hold me tight then let me go nothing lasts forever you know dynamo ...

groundhog discussion i teared up so proud i love him then kitchen table blackjack highrollers in practice sipping on cider and coffee heavy lovely talking exactly what i wanted to share and be responded then tax education with a glazed eyed sensation kitchen table card games old lamp black and heartache lighthearted letters with numbers suits and the weather avoiding certain topics how do you like your brand new optics.

stargazing in the heart of the darkest night picking things apart without a side discovering it all with whispered facts like the cafe au late on the small of your back ... i could sleep for another night i could sleep for another night and another night with you by my side ... the velvet piano plays quite slowed down covered in layered waves of recorded sound ... so late to whats happening so babe are we staying in ...

when did this game begin has it been all along can i right my wrongs will all this give and take maybe break our hearts the end is where it starts the end is where it starts ... maybe i'm wrong and you're right ... this is a back and forth a push and pull of our thoughts i respect the ones you've got honest don't contemplate quickly make your case no one likes to chase answers asked to wait sitting face to face ... i must go to sleep you keep me up too late ...

his and hers covered in cat furs and the room is quiet hers and his and the cats hiss aside from that and the fan it's silent fabric and lumber can she hear thunder did she see the lightning crack lumber and fabric the rains now a soundtrack is it quiet and silent where she's at ... will i sleep till the morning comes ... i am surrounded by panthers relentless stoppers and they turn into dancers early hour monsters i hear cries begging of thirst looking out for dad more likely just a bad dream not letting go of my hand ... what kind of dreams am i gonna let in to the holes of my skin beaten flat and burried beneath and broken within why do i hear, like animals, these violins gnawing on something under my bed over and over again ...

wake me up calm me down it's a shame that you must go after nine alarms the curtains drawn but we're moving awfully slow the morning stretch the aah's and ooh's the cats have scattered bout half awake and a kiss goodbye half asleep i'm freaking out couldn't i see this coming or would come eventually ... it's tough to say or to admit but i'm veering into need couldn't i see this coming or would come eventually ... my love is a lost and found going round and round and round ... it's tough to say or to admit but i'm veering into need all encompassing it's embarrassing i'm capable perfectly of a goodnights sleep and restful mind but i'm veering into need so wake me up and calm me down it's a shame that you must leave couldn't i see this coming or would come eventually ...

ninth year missing after eight in a row with fingers itching twitching broken and cracking toes and bones a plenty with a few to pick if i needle myself excuse my french but i'll feel like a prick ninth year missing after eight back to back if my goal was to be a deadbeat hell i'd be right on track if i had known that i'd feel quite like this well hell i'd have picked up the slack after eight back to back...
11.
buy a bottle of pills, a photo prescription then a thank you drink when they are done i keep saying yes till i overload until i fill my lungs and my life explodes ... there will be, ramifications ... try and bottle the hurt for a rainy day watch it explode and hope someone will pay expectations are tough my willingness is high i keep saying yes yes yes everytime ...

i sold cathedral to rent provista little brother asked for his sister i need an architect to fix this disaster maybe a builder is what i'm after ... smoke break on the fire escape ... old scarth street regulars all heartbeats and registers in then out, loves a doubt ... smoke break on the fire escape smoke break on the fire escape cough up a lung a love a hate smoke break on the fire escape ... i went from calgary, to malbec twenty to thirty, in a quick sec ...

didnt you doze asleep with elbows on the table neatly wrapped in bordeaux noon strikes and you blink an eye hope shines through dust sunlight where drinks on the table last night flowed ... are you sad and lonely or are you just getting wrecked ... last night why did you sing every song in minor key with reckless abandonment has melancholy hit you are you feeling it weighing you down likely bent ... didnt you doze asleep with elbows on the table neatly wrapped in bordeaux ...

about

the Lambta Da's regina, Saskatchewan

The music's expression is paradoxically less solar and extraverted than the character of the seasons would lead us to believe. More than strength or richness there is an intensity, a sensation replete with freshness and firmness, which is remarkable. This deep and confident presence that persists over time becomes the memory of the music, possibly for always. ... more
