Four You
[5]1A
[6]2F
[7]3D
[8]4A#
Move these around
just as you please
I lead by 4th finger,
hey, that's just me
The lowest I go is
4G, 3B, 2D, 1F#
and no higher than
4D, 3F#, 2A, 1C#
I trust you to amble
deftly 'bout the strings
I call them quadrads
don't know their real name
like rythym guitar
it may sound the same
These are all downstrokes
just strumming with ease
almost a flick
from lefty #1-sies
Yes, for a while I
had a pick' method
3rd string, & 1st string
Thumbed the low E
But then something happened;
and that all fell away:
nothing to anchor my
learning, or better my ways
There's a third style:
I've sent it by dream.
I hope that you've heard it,
not driven insane
Can't reveal it;
It's part of that song
I'll only play for you
when we're alone
That's it for now, Love
planning my day
office dining
bonds to maintain
Just know this, Darling
You are the centre
around which I spin
get me through eve'nings
With you in my heart
And when I'm strong
enough, or just try,
I give you a listen
with glistening eyes.

Check It Out
Low on the neck
Frets one two three
Like a D Major but free
EGB
All of the blue notes
green notes and yella'
occasionally vi'let n'
that magenta fella'
'Til the cross-over
of red and the blue
nestled together
tween yellows n' greens
I climb on higher
as far as she goes
up the unnumbered
dotless plateaus
Then back down the neck
In sad minor tones
crossing the switchback
curveball that it throws
Fret two, fret four, fret six
then fiddle around
with the switchback again
My signature sound

[** ALERT **][life][Ugh...] Flooded out
So...
I am in the process of fleeing my feces-filled basement room for a room on the second floor. My landlady, who is presently in Armenia, is strongly hinting that this situation is the prelude to my finding another place. The only upside is that I haven't yet paid for February.
I have no place to go, and no prospects.

Manifest Destination
However dark those woods appear
Undying blossom, life puts forth shoots
tender, becomes an oak
supine beneath its sheltering arms
Manifest dream become flesh
girl with such fiery life as this
Wandered timeworn I sought
strangers I'd found, -- useless
distractions; all proof I'd yet
-- to find You
I long for that portal, opening
when we no longer have to live
by hope alone
find better uses
for tears, enjoined
Higher, and higher
Higher, and higher
it grows
in You
