about

Solitary reflection sometimes reveals that what was believed to be a true source of meaning is not really what it appeared to be.

lyrics

I toss a stone into a pond
And play a rhythm slowly drawn
I’ve got no beats, no cutting noise
I’m just a word man using voice.

The elemental part of me
Believes in something I can’t see
It’s like a moisture in the breeze
Born of great big distant sea

I watch the ripples of a psalm
And feel the darkness coming on
How do I follow to the dawn
Of a more ecstatic age?

It seemed so hollow to be free
Of resonating artistry.
But now I know. Oh I know,
It's potent to simply be.
To be a man. To be one
Poetic part of hymn.
To be a song on a tongue.
Part of nature’s one eternal hum.
