I reach way down into my past
Feel around for the stuff that lasts
Found these scars and photographs
Some love I lost
And plans I had
I’m keeping’ my hand on this gospel plow
Raise something up from this shallow ground
This time
THIS TIME - new song, simple solo version. For Judy.
This time is a wheel of fire
This time is a forge
I'm keeping my ear on that gospel choir
This time's a train
I'm gonna get on board
This time

Forsythia dogwood
Spring in Baltimore
They're comin back for more
Another year
The elephant's baby
Is showing at the zoo
Birds red black and blue
Sing in my ear
They stand in line
At the corner shrines
For Spring in Baltimore
It's that time of year again. Can Spring be far away?

You tell me we’ve seen better days
As we watch it all slip away
I know it ain’t no lie
It’s like we’re livin’ in parallel lives

Who do you figure gets hit this time
Hope it ain’t yours and
I hope it ain’t mine
The rancor builds and the anchors squeal
Smoke of sacrifices in the distant hills

"See through These Eyes" - a solo version of my original song from the album Ghosts And Roses.
No matter how lucky you've been personally, if you live long enough you'll witness tragedies among your beloved. This song embodies a few of those true, tragic stories.

My original song LORETTA, written a little less than two years ago, from my album "Ghosts And Roses" available on all the streaming platforms, here with overlaid video from the studio - more tech experimentation - fun stuff.
So far I haven't heard anyone suggest a cultural connection between the acquittal of Daniel Penny and the popular outpouring of support for Luigi Mangione.
I think there is: in both cases perpetrators are seen by many as being protective or noble roles in reaction to perceived threats or injustice.

I've been doing some videos of my favorite songs, originals and covers. The technical processes are evolving. I'll be adding more to this playlist as time goes on.
