What is a song?

  What I have But this woe in me When called to write It’s poetry I never write What I see For what calms and moves Is melody But a distant star Oh so far Over strange lands I travel far And the things I capture Are not what I see For that is a trade Of photography If what I taste Was not preserved For decades upon decades Upon scholarly word I would know far less Than what I state For with my words I alone can’t make A sound to the eye Would any try That doesn’t move It’s a tempest lie A distant sound From another’s lips You know they like it When they move their hips A calm or mood In spoken text When it’s learned with the ears You must confess I would do some justice With poetry For what taste and touch Can never see In what I write I never see For what world exists In melody?

The Mainstream and Narcissistic Culture

That it had been an unspoken tradition, that decade after decade, generation after generation, that a calling of youth would take to emerge from the shambles and dusty cellars of our cities, to assimilate themselves in debauchery and rebel from their parents.  Almost like a ceremonial dance of passing, they would take following with the devil's music.  Young adults and teenagers from urban, rural, and suburban areas, like maturing mammals, find themselves in a reassessment of their conscience.  They are beckoned by heed, hypnotized though alluring melodies, feeling compelled to new math and relishing in a medium that preserves their stories.  To them a calling and sure sign of their salvation.  Their individuality.  Did I say it yet?  Their Rebellion!  But from what again?  I mentioned who they were, and I also stated that music was the vessel and the embodiment of their spirit.  Yes, music.  From it, they could recharge.  Rege...
