Don't Be Surprised...

Bitter lovely wrapped up in the danger, pleasure, I'm turning to you...
Soft with sorrow they swim into something narrow, they're held in by the
Sides of coins that I flip into shallow waters, the green and rusty
Faces keeps yours alone but don't worry much about the changing of the tides...

There's no surprise...

"The Elephant" LIVE with the Josh Ritter Band 5/30/09

The Proclivities "Red Faced Girl" opening for Josh Ritter 5/30/09

Cases...

Purity can come from reckless places
Slender frames and round faces
Complicated rhythms in two spaces
Your heart and mine in unlocked cases.

Words never had it so good...

Words, they never had it as good as you. You may think a word has gold in it, but they exist not as a representative form but as a life's pursuit. What we have in common with the larger words is our indulgence! Believe in it. Meaning, good or bad meaning, if understood, won't go lost in the heartland.

I dance...

Try once just to make it, you can distort your body against god's good motives...apart from the science of good will, you have a lot to learn about the work ethic of children, pantomime, discovery, enabling, justified...

In honor of our dear Meteorologists...
