The Poet's Progress

Life teases me
And again it pleases me
Content to be
Discontent
In this way my life is spent

The poet’s progress is very slow
Word by word he must go
Line by line
He writes in rhyme
Or didn’t you know?

Not a good day today
His words wouldn’t come out to play
Not a good day today
His words wouldn’t come out to play

Time and time again
Through water and the flame
In beauty and in pain
The way it changes, but remains the same
I laugh I cry
I hope to know
The sky above the earth below
Something inside, a love that doesn’t show
On and on and on and on we go
With no end in sight
Living in the day
And dying in the night

Not a good day today
His words wouldn’t come out to play
Not a good day today
His words wouldn’t come out to play

With lies and eyes
I look for truth
I’m looking for you
With lies and eyes
I look for truth
I’m looking for you
---------------------------------------------------

In Formless Rhythm You Remain

You are the changer, you dance the change
In formless rhythm you remain
You are the changer, you dance the change
In formless rhythm you remain

Liquid fish in quicksilver mind
The ever-changing is hard to find
In fluid self, your not yourself
Spinning on a balanced sphere
Swinging time upon the wheel
Feel the change, the change revealed
Unlock the door and break the seal
Your change is complete, the change concealed.

Angel, I heard your interview with Jason Woodbury on Aquarium Drunkard's "Transmissions" podcast today. It was truly remarkable and touched my heart. I bought this album immediately afterward and am so grateful to you for this nourishing music in these strange, trying days. I hope I can time my next trip to Chicago to be able to see you perform live. Thank you! mfeltes
