nothing but text!!

hello! I started by recording Andrew's piece, but got annoyed at my own piano/vocal limitations so stopped. Then I started a piece for voice+not sure yet solo instrument that just ran into the obvious 'what is this solo instrument' limitations of writing - only so much you can do when you don't know what you're writing for UGHGHGHHG so I only wrote as much as I knew. None of that is worth publishing so I feel, so I'm publishing a poem instead.

I hope I am kinder to myself in the coming days and weeks - I want to be writing music, I'm just not used to it just yet. I hope the days are treating you all kindly.



OPEN YOURSELF AND YOU OPEN YOURSELF TO
THE WORD
THE WORD IS NOT NECESSARILY DEFINABLE
NOTHING IS STRONGER BY BEING DEFINABLE
BUT INSOFAR AS YOU HARMONISE AND IDENTIFY
AND SING ALONG TO THE DEFINITION
THE IMMUTABLE GREEN OF TREES
THE IRREPRESSIBLE SONG OF SONGS
YOU ARE STRONGER FOR THEIR SINGING

THIS IS POEM MADE TRUE BY ITS CAPITALISATION
AND EMOTIONAL BY ITS READING
AND LOVED BY ITS BELIEVING
