hey Killer-another lovely poem...but no fair teasing us with something named "a new song"-for a brief second I thought I would be starting off the dreaded work week listening to you sing your words...perhaps you could whip up a little suitable music to go with this?
may your muse's song be full of wisdom and peace
may your muse-ic be faithful to her song
sing songs of wisdom
sing us to you
sing all our lives to us
stunning...........
Look out! The muse has been invoked!
Lovely. I can say no more than that. Only Lovely.
and of love?
Windbag on and on and on

Covering much ground here Steve, especially liked,
"Sing of Soloman who sings his own song."
Stuff the head
With all such reading as was never read:
For thee explain a thing until all men doubt it,
And write about it, Goddess, and about it.

Yes, do. Do you know the Tale of Taliesin? (the medieval text, not the 70s song) Another bard mixing old and new.
A reasonable version:

Saturn, satan and black satin sheets. Your head is a beautiful and perfect place.
A prayer to the song.
All hail the song and all bow before the almighty creator of song.
I am on my knees with my arms in the air bowing before the divine mystery of song.
Bravo sk, nice to see the late, great Jeff Buckley get a mention:)

Speaking of singing, I've been teaching myself to sing UTMW. I bought the karaoke version from Amazon the other day to help me along. Only cost $0.99. I guess you get a piece of that action. :)
