Studio8 - Uniting the Arts

It's Crazy
I've already learned this tune in three keys
and I'm not that good a piano player

nothing pleases you
a little higher a little lower
a little faster a little slower

a stalemate over chords and notes
chickens and eggs
mine and yours
never mind ours

and hours on end
you move tiles
maybe you should take up Mahjong
at least its a game with some mystical meaning
but what it is evades me

like you evade me
shun my touch
don't open my emails
or your knees
it's back to chords and notes

and why music is necessarily crazy
if there were no lines, you couldn't step over the lines
or you could walk the line with a cop's flashlight in your eyes
recite the alphabet backwards or the Lord's Prayer
it's back to notes and chords

Music theory is like string theory
in short, there is nothing you can possibly know about music
just as there is nothing you can know about god
the universe is the only evidence
the sound

there is nothing you can know about love
just
the touch
the touch

We can't know god, music, stirng theory but...

What can we know about women?

"Nature herself does not know what she will do next"



Open hearted poem Clay
I admire your courage

thank you

Amazing.

Is this written by the same man who told me tonight that there is no such thing as the key of D?



That's crazy, alright. Yep.

What's a key?

What's a key?

That's what Lrod was saying. He said I was referring to a chord, not a key, when i referred to the key of D major and when I pointed out the key signature, he said, "we're speaking a different language."



Ahh... blues in the key of D for Doreen.

I sing praise in an imaginary key.
My range is minimally imprisoned;
Grateful for the way the quick release
of note and phrase, I suggest you
play the piece in C, then electronically adjust
if you feel you want to, not if you feel you must.

Do what you decide to do
and if my voice can fit,
I'll vocalize with you.

this is awesome poetry clay........i'll reread this over and over and get something new everytime....that's a definite wired prediction....I touched and got touched this weekend and maybe I'm amazed....damn after all these years i'm still learning.....damn if that ain't the only way to be......

thank you for looking
wired and truck and doreen
here is my new themesong:

Crazy

is that a cover for a black blues lady?
