New Minstrel (The Exanimate Few)

Extravagant and clean and practised, oh, so very well,
they pose and fall and knead and climb, unclothed yet practical.
The ceiling sets the scene and I am reminded not to go.
I’m at the mercy of this posthumous woe.
Never seen again.
Still reticent though yearning, they’ve decided not to go.
Touched upon, within and without; betwixt the very air and soil.
The pouring out of need, as though these swollen stones could flow.
Friends and fiends, like swine, were bought and sold.
Never seen again, the handsome mass of hosts has done away with me.
Buying empathy for the promised lot; a flaccid apathy tied in rotted knots.
Obliging agony is so often not what it was meant to be; is so often wrought…
Never seen again, this handsome mass of hosts does pleasure me.
The new minstrel plays as both of them take leave
across an empire, mapped out in Plasticine.
Never seen again. Never seen again. Never seen again.

Thank you, MTC. Strictly speaking, it isn't really a This Caustic Autumn track. I recorded it on my own, but though it was close enough that it could make its way onto this page. I suppose the description on our homepage here could stand to be updated. TCA seems to be on more than a temporary hiatus. I believe we have disbanded. However, the Eugene Hammond project I've been working on, though exactly what I want and need it to be, is not entirely fulfilling, and with our without the name TCA behind me, I will be dishing out some more of this brand of music in the coming months. "The New Minstrel," is from an EP I've got just a bit of knob twisting left on before it comes out on revolving door records. I have more up my sleeve beyond that, as well. Thank you muchly for coming by to check out the fresh post. When the new stuff if complete and fully ready for the light of day, I'll post another track here, and a link to the rest of it.
