Wow. I have no songs right now… no lyrics. \u00a0It’s weird. \u00a0And terrible. \u00a0I miss them.<\/p>\n
I had moved into writing some visionary lyrics and melodies, snippets of songs surprising me when I least expected them…more spacy songs, more poetry, more beauty. \u00a0Then came the coup of November 2018.<\/p>\n
But now, nothing — except a defiant, loud, rockin scream. \u00a0because active defiance: LOVE in ACTION is better than despair.<\/p>\n
I don’t really want to be writing protest songs or angry songs. \u00a0And I have no words. \u00a0Just those rock screams.<\/p>\n
Is your sleep off? \u00a0As in “not sleeping”? \u00a0Everybody I know is hardly sleeping. \u00a0We’re stumbling around, remembering how other countries fell. \u00a0Remembering all the other despots, authoritarian states, and civilizations that have vanished. \u00a0So we don’t sleep too well, these days.<\/p>\n
And I’m actively seeing clients now, because people are anxious.\u00a0 My job is to help.\u00a0 Some of our traditional tools still work, and man, will we be using everything in our toolbox!\u00a0 Because right now, we’re all in this bizarre reality together.\u00a0 We need help one another as very much as we can.\u00a0 Our ONENESS & LOVE will help us carry one another through this.<\/p>\n
So on the one hand, I want you all to be at PEACE.\u00a0 And on the other hand, we must be VIGILANT.<\/p>\n
War cries are a type of song, aren’t they?<\/p>\n
We CAN do this. Together.<\/p>\n
