Tree Dirt

The Earth The Person

As if an opera 

Through the wind

Dancing 

Pirouetting

Into the ground

Through the dirt

Back into the tree

Through a tragedy,

of a fertile Earth

And chemicals

some Tiny creatures

Death

Regurgitation 

 Self consumption

Then things more disgusting...

As if a nightmare 

Through the bowels

Digesting 

Dissolving

Into the species

Through the limbs

Into a thing...

Much like the beginning 

Of an opera

In the wind

Getting ready

To dance again

I like the song choice, the poem has a lot of meaning for me, and is one of the poems of yours that really give me a story to chew on. Death, rebirth, regurgitation.

I have this on vinyl. That whole live session. It's incredible to just sit there, smoke some grass, and listen to. Jerry Cantrell and Layne Stayley doing live music at the same time is singular and irreplaceable.

That sounds amazing. It's nice to chill out and listen to music like that. I do the same sort of thing when I want to sit back and enjoy myself.

Marantz as a receiver, plus a rega record player (RPIII) plus a rega DAC, plus a pair of Kilpsch RF 7's. That's how you're supposed to listen to music. It's good loud, it's good quiet... it's also, unfortunately, very expensive.

High quality audio is always excellent. I have these bose headphones I’ve had for a few years, and I love them. Sometimes it’s worth the cost. The best thing is writing while I listen to something like metal, rock, electronic, etc.
