I get the feeling your new album is about to drop.
Exciting, to say the least.
I hope that you are well, and that things are easing.
Love,

[Verse 1]
The Road rolls on—through velvet night,
silvered with calm, caressed starslight,
—Echoes of winds’ recall: what’s known
...sparse profession in paths o’ergrown;
[Chorus 1]
While shadows stir and moments flee,
joys resounding in harmony.
In the too-hush of twilight’s glow,
through mists, our truth gleams bright below.
[Verse 2]
Beneath the strong oak’s tender sprawl,
sweetness leans on memory’s call,
Golden leaves rise up, swirl mid-air,
your-quiet colors all I swear.
[Chorus 2]
Where stillness stays, and speech delayed,
still, light breaks forth and draws us near.
In the soft hush of twilight’s glow,
through mists, hope gleams up soft below.
[Bridge]
The hush holds dear what hearts won’t say,
still warmth resides in breath and skin.
A spark remains where words refrained
—not lost, not dimmed... but drawn within.
[Verse 3]
The air breathes low a wistful sigh,
bless'ed the grace of even’s sky.
Stars-apart, in their realms’ repose,
to meet what silence won’t compose.
[Chorus 3]
Yes, light breaks through where truth holds sway,
Love, in chords that do softly ...make.
In velvet hush of twilight’s glow,
through mists, hope shines forth from below.

_Alpha_Black Flame
[Verse 1]
Since it came over me, ain't been the same
Like a long-ago friend, returned, reframed.
Constant pressure for me to Grey
----------Dark chorus of severi-ty
...and all I can say is: -- 'I like me this way.'
[Verse 2]
"The Plan" and much more; the path has grown clearer
Am I entangled, with my dark quantum sister?
Does apotheosis now hinge -- upon her answer?
[Verse 3]
I'm all-in, -- regardless, my friend;
Could never return, without Everything
Let my reach exceeed my grasp, --if -- needs --be;
Yet, let me see, -- nay, let it be me:
-- The Black Dawn: --Setankhaten.
[Verse 4]
Together (or apart) let my hands find the tiller:
Reforge the Mythic, let the days blur together
The survivours of Sunder, all left better,
While great ruins crumble --and, smoulder.
[Verse 5]
Four seasons all in turn, let Bison hunts return;
the Continent wild, civilisation re-conquered.
Let liminal rites, adult Humans-make:
Ruins, their trial-space --rank,
Tokens they collect there, for fablesake.
[Verse 6]
That SET gave me this Gift while my blood
yet flows: too much is left unsaid, and undone.
:: My fellow Americans, and my Human friends:
We've so much to accomplish: -- it just never ends.
[Verse 7]
Our need for deep change: -- we can't stay the same:
The Red Reign, is companion -- to the Black Flame.

My older, but not eldest, sister received as a gift this LP when we lived in, West Germany.
I, 5 then, must have heard it once then, but it wasn't until we got back to the States that I would work up the courage to listen to it with its 'werewolf' snarls and eerie music.
This is my musical touchstone.

This was more of a technical challenge and I feel I achieved the sort of sound I wanted.
The lyrics are of my amazement at flying alongside my Love.
Love,
Sorry for the delay. Message received. :D
After that response, I have been hard at work.
I like the lyrics to the second song, and your etheric voice on all the tracks is very interesting. It makes one want to listen more clearly. I also approve of your departures from the traditional lyrics -- with the drift in pronunciation over the decades and centuries, some of the rhythm and rhyme has been lost -- your choices served the story while preserving your craft. ❤
I hope you were playing on the third one.
We need more of your guitar work, honey, even if that means playing your own backing tracks. I know you can loop live, so, really its not being disingenuous for you to be your own strings section, even on your solo shows. You've got the chops, babe.
Loving you is easy.
Here's to the Right Time,
Kyrinn
May you see a beautiful day within, Darling.

'MONDAY, LOVE'
Six ways from Sunday
Ain't it the truth
Hard livin's easy
-- got truth on my side
I mean Lovin's so easy
But you're so hard to find
A weepful of Mondays
I'd cry them for you
Stay up all night Sunday
just to be there, it's true
Mondays don't matter when
you ain't got no 9 to 5
But darlin' let me tell you
Your smile makes it worthwhile
Saturday nights go slowly
just thinkin' of you
How at sunfall all dreams
could simply come true
Friday-even light some up
and ease into each other
Our hair's been let down
Babe, let's make our big play
Six ways from Sunday
Ain't it the truth
Hard lovin' woman
ain't hard lovin' you
But where in the world
can we the, time, find
to be somewhere together
at the same time?
To be somewhere together
at the right time.
