The Jackknife Letters drops soon…
My new album, The Jackknife Letters (which I’ve referred to many times as The Record of a Thousand Miles, due to the great while it’s taken to finish and the Zen-like patience I’ve had to apply to the task at hand) is in the can!!! Official release date is TBA. I’ll hit you up very soon with the release date of the album, first single and video, Lay It Down.
Peace…
Happy Monkey #3: A Simple Return
Flatline whispers
It’s quiet on the lake
Pull the plug
The grid flickers
Darkened down
Like the shadows
Beneath + between
Misty wisps
Dancing across
This fading light of day
Where tall trees
Eat the sun
The light devoured
As night sets in
A soul goes free
Now solace in the fade
No rage
No age
No cage
No stage
A simple return
To a kinder place
Happy Monkey #2
After a welcome delay to compose my submission for the CBC Poetry dealio, here is O2, the second piece from Tales From The Happy Monkey.
O2
The show goes on
From dusk til dawn
The brand new day come rising
I feel the turn
+ soothe the burn
Of all this realizing
The dream it seems
Has swollen seams
Prolific in the drowning
I went to clear
The misty mirror
+ saw that I was frowning
Some brand new lines
From troubled times
Connected to the lifeline
The pictures
In the storybook
Reflections of a lifetime
Hot + cold
Happy/Sad
The tale that lives between
These legs
That carry moments through
The time that lives between
Seeing things
The red bell rings
The sound of the alarming
I reach down
Below the ground
+ settle the disarming
Sifting and the filter
Of the passion
+ the jive
The prospect
Of the project
Of people all alive
May we run
Around the sun
+ settle on the rising
Soothe the burn
Each in turn
Of all this realizing
