UNDERGROUND



I could be blindfolded 
and dropped into the deepest ocean 
and I would know where to find you 
I could be buried a hundred miles underground 
and I would know where you are

GLOW 23



mohali/punjab in november
is like late summer in ontario

countless street dogs, cows everywhere
eating garbage

a whole lot of poor people
we have no idea

Roger Stone

source music: Vangelis





inspired by the documentary
A Storm Foretold
Directed by Christoffer Guldbrandsen


















STONE COLD
backstory


I came for the American dream bro
and yer not in it



After seeing the Danish documentary
A Storm Foretold
I got something quite profound
It is in fact spiral architect Roger Stone
who is the MAGA wizard/punisher


It's round 3 in a tie game. Strap in
We live in a Marvel Universe 
once again











This time, our emperor's mentor
 and spiritual advisor is on the rebound
Perturbed passed over & pissed cause Roger didn't GET
what he DESERVED the first time around



Interesting delusion, seclusion, intrusion
and such are the entitled
me more - you less
Make America Great Again - FOR ME



FOR THE PEOPLE?
FUCK THE PEOPLE!

so
Buckle up and grab a Bud
It's going to be a thrill ride

ALONE




He said he was from Glasgow
or was it Belfast? Fak
I can't remember
begging the more
serious question

Why am I



A L O N E  
summer '23 - volume up















optimized for night vision


there's one song every year
ok maybe every 3 years
(and sometimes 3 in one year)
that truly tears me to shreds
 I remember being 9
when it began

first 'michelle'
by the beatles in '65 

'windy'
by the association 

'daydream believer'
by the monkees soon after

'nights in white satin'
by the moody blues
all in 1967

so many more
later


timeless masterpieces
that never get old
every time hearing them
it's BAM - nailed it







more recently this thing
by ray wilson that I keep listening to
just resonates so it's on repeat here
all the while thinking, how could it be better 
w/EQ, automation, overdubs & pictures

a more visceral version


.


alone
