RPM 2014
full, the ocean inside
of meadows smelling softly
of butterflies that swallow
all, there inside, it all

when you’re backed into the corner
bears his teeth and growls
and scratches his claws on the floor
it takes a village to decide
how to count the many ways

The first song started for RPM 2014, and the first song finished. The rhythm guitars are a doubled 12-string. The vocals are doubled, when not in harmony. Doubling has become one of the minor themes this year.

This one's by Amber Tatnall; we banged it out Friday the 28th as the last song on the RPM 2014 project. It's so lovely, it'll get a rework soon. But Not Today!

As I stood before them
My lips poured threads of fate
Yet to be proven.
Green eyes pierced me

sliding smoothly into
their holy ears.
And then the spears.
And then the fire.
