Once upon a time, I had the dream for a band. Who's to see if
that band will ever exist? I had an idea oh, about fourth grade,
to have a band with everything that we played in our little elementary
school concert band. Saxophones and trumpets and whatnot, which now
ends up being the swing revival. If only we had been good enough
and grown enough to help start that. Sigh. I could be rich
now. Of course, I was in my high school heyday during the grunge
movement of the early nineties, and had, as most did, an obsession with
Kurt Cobain. So I fell in love with the guitar and had alternative
dreams in the band 'Organic Plaid.' Cheeky enough to poke fun at
the movement that had made an establishment of rebellion.
Needless to say, that hasn't lead me to fame, especially considering
I can't really play guitar. Coincidentally, I'm as lefthanded as
Kurt, and being as it were, they found his corpse on my birthday.
Much fun.
But now I think I want to play bass. And I realized that Paul
McCartney, while a genius in his own right, has a funny face. I'll
have to find a picture of him that really show off his "Hunchback of Notre
Dame" twisted features. Downright gruesome.
Anyhoo, I wrote some lyrics with a tune in my head, that I'm bound
to forget by the time I get around to learning some strings.
Read them and take them as you will. Check out some other poems
that I didn't have a song in store for. Rather just some demented
and otherwise pathetic thoughts.

Kiddie Pool
Well. two new ones. Was inspired after going to a thing
at the HUB. Was free stage night for songwriters. Some good
stuff. Though these ones are a bit on the odd side. Not like the
rest were anywhere near normal. Feeling more creativity soon.
Maybe I should mark the joke songs like Blink-182 does. Ehh, you
can figure it out.
(She's Got A) Fire In The Hole

New one for today. Have a few more in the works.
Mystery Box
A couple of new ones, accumulated through my travels. Some are
kind of sing-songy (which means they're lame)but that's okay.

Let It Out
Well, tell you what. Not that anyone out of the normal loop will
ever travel here, but if you do, help us with the name (since me bandmates
can't decide on one collectively). We've narrowed it down to four:
Dark Water Closet; Anderson Rider; Redundant Redundant; and Eleven Foot
Pole. And we know there's already a Ten Foot Pole. So we may substitute
Seven Feet Under.
Well, Let me know what you think. Mail me. Dave
