    Rain

     we have yesterday's rain today, far more than casually unstill! - a near eternal transparent, cotton-thickweave of space falling fastfrom a gluttinous heaven -surrendering, splattering, splayingthe all around with a raw pour ofalmost too willing surrender. .. .. .. a petty pause snatches six...

    • Hoi hoi Chère E.,
      Being Dutch, I love the rain when it pours into the North Sea. I admit you’ve won me over.
      Your lovely write softens my heart and the more than lovely artwork does the rest.
      Please, keep them coming!
      Kind regards, Gus

    • Sir, as Autumn sheds its leaves, metallic golds an’ brass will live their last before collection, storage in bins, bags or covered heaps. Here an’ there working their best in the dark but – preparing to light another season’s spirit and – soul-like soil! 🙂

    • I used to love to play out in the rain when I was a child. I must still be, because I still love rain and will walk very slowly through it when I go to my car from my house or vice-versa.
      Is it God crying? I doubt it…He is probably dousing us with it to cleanse our hearts and souls.
      Nice write, em.

      • Many, many thank yous, dear friend. Rain is what it is, wet but glorious at the right time! Take care of you, sir.

    • Brought me memories of the sound of rain on a tin roof at our old house, and the smell of petrichor. A wonderful write! “)

    • Many, many thank yous, M.E! Enjoy your happiness.

    How it is

    we were a Summer green and bright wed to an Autumn dressed in richer lights I was a simple soul, whilst you, my darling -laughing lips in thanks to Heavenly lore, brought your dry homeland to my island shore  and as you  know...

    • Very pretty, romantic words. Thanks, Emma.

      • Thank your for your kind words. My writing varies so I’m delighted when someone carries words to my nest!

      • What a generous review.. many, many thanks. Isn’t the word ‘Bravo’ super satifactory!

    • It does sound like a town that has been forgotten. You described it well, so sad.

    • I lived there for 17 years. But had to move, the police moved out and glitches moved in. They set up tents and overtook the place.

      • I don’t know whether to laugh or sigh at your comment. It was such a great place at one time. Let’s hope this site is a new and better beginning for most of us from Cafe Town. 🙂 Thanks J.

    • Powerfully penned, Tim. Incredible write my friend. Appreciate you.

    The Great Deceiver

    Fueled by a consuming rage Pointed at every situation  As I fall into the final stage Right before the initiation Locked inside self-torment  Wiggling out of the noose Keeping all the spirits dormant Until madness is busting loose   Pressure building within me Anger clouding all that I see   Face...

    • Oh yeah, this one definitely needs a place on the album! I hope it’s coming along well! The halls are a bit echo-ey without you wandering them as often, my friend

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Willow. So glad you connected with the write my friend. It’s going, though it took a while to get my “Logic Pro” software. Which allows me to mix better and I can even master my music with it. But, I got a song mapped out structurally, I have lyrics for everything but the bridge. Which I just came up with that bridge tonight. Gotta record vocals, and backing vocals next. Hopefully, I’ll be letting you hear it soon. I miss you too, my friend. You’ve been penning some excellent work my friend. Thanks for your continued support, it means a lot to me. Appreciate you.

    • I get the sense of internal conflict, and the rhythm and urgency make it clear these are lyrics meant to be performed.

      The energy builds perfectly toward the chorus: “Face to face with destiny…” I especially like the line “Loyal to the art of betrayal” – it’s a great, concise piece of wordplay.

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Roma. So glad you connected with the lyrics my friend. I love that line as well. Appreciate you.

        Damian
