As Fickle as the Wind
2020© by John Schofield
You’re a footprint on a beach
An imprint in the sand
Capricious as a summer storm
As fickle as the wind
Tell me who you are
And what you want from me
I need to know how far we’ll go…

This re-recorded song comes from the 2022 RPM Challenge. I am not really pleased with this new version. I can't quite put my finger on what the problem is, but there is something here that is making me unhappy.
The clean rhythm guitar is…

This one was originally written for the Record Every Month challenge last year. June 2023, I think. I liked it immediately and wanted to see if I could improve on it. I think I did, though marginally so. Even after spending a few months tinkering…

Abortion is wrong
How about not sleeping around, messing around, having sex with the wrong people?
If it is not the right one, don’t fuck them
So grow the fuck up
Live some life and if you find the right person, great

Yeah, I got so much soul, so much so that you just cannot hold yo
And it’s in the safe locked up tight where you cannot find it
That’s the breaks, that’s the key
And you cannot locate me, I’m hard to find

Into the wide blue yonder
Sailing on a sparkling sea
Canvas flying overhead

[Verse 1]
Through you I am, I do all things
All credit to you and to your gifts
And your help which is plentiful
You steer me clear of trouble
You lead me to a place of wonder
When I get a curve ball
You want me to learn from it
And I…

Inspired by a poem by Henry Longfellow:
Slave Ships
Beneath a mighty ocean
Lying buried in the sand
Are the bones of men in chains
With shackled feet and hands
Slave ships sunk in raging storms

[Intro]
The fob, fresh off the boat, finger on the button for self-destruction
Why the fuck did you come over here?
[Verse 1]
You’re a whore
You’re responsible for the deaths of so many people
What the fuck, it’s unbelievable
It’s amazing…

Played around with a couple of new-to-me plugins on my equally new-to-me tablet, then connected a little USB interface to make sure the guitar signal would come through. Fun little 10-minute diversion that turned into a just-shy-of-2 minute "soundscape…

Something new....
Grey
Old paint faded
Dilapidated
Barely hanging on

The cold is peace
And the dark beautiful
Take
