Rises, glowing, into dawn.

I Guess It Was Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day has
Happened to us whether we
Liked or hated it.

Miso Chordy An instrumental on four guitars that shifts gears half-way through. Is it quiet? For a while. Is it angry? Also, for a while.

An instrumental
With an abrupt tonal shift.
What is with the soup?

Is it superb to
Be in a bowl of media,
Or to shine alone?

There is a hair on
My pillow case, gray and coarse.
It is not alone.

A yellow leaf hides
Beneath a thinning snow pack.
Spring will bring its end.

SoundCloud would not let me distribute the earlier version because there was more than 15 seconds of silence at the end. That has been corrected.

Due to unwanted
Silence in earlier post,
A shorter repost.

Yeah. After a wet snow fall, some power lines hit and blew the top off of a pole. Caused all kinds of chaos, so we did a puzzle.

Ski lift transformer
Blew up and stopped everything.
Puzzle time wins out.

Leek and spinach quiche
Are more interesting than
All 'real men' I know.

Diz Grace A rainy morning leaves a person frozen at a bus stop. Are they going down the drain or getting washed free of their past mistakes? Listen and let me know which way it goes.

Not everything needs

The F in Jesus Christ I used to work retail and Black Friday was (and still is) the worst day of the year. No one needs your gifts that badly. It's not in the spirit of whatever holiday celebration you honor.

Black Friday is not
A day to buy perfect gifts.
Sentiment in song.
