Another original. Spoken word, dark folk.

Tried my hand at an original song.
Cover of INOJ’s ‘Love You Down’.
Recorded a couple of covers for fun. This one’s a cover of How to Dress Well’s cover of an Elite Gymnastics song.
My God, I thought with sudden vehemence, so you really are. There are proofs of your existence. I have forgotten them all and never even wanted any, for what a huge obligation would lie in the certainty of you.
-Rilke, The Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge
What is the past? A mutable melancholy, no more lost for having changed than if it had stayed the same.
Sister of stormy melancholy,
Look, a tremulous boat is sinking
Beneath the stars,
To the mute countenance of Night.
— from Georg Trakl, Lament II, tran. Alexander Stillmark
Sister in my wild despair
Look, a precarious skiff is sinking
Under the stars,
The face of night whose voice is fading.
— from Georg Trakl, Mourning, trans. James Wright and Robert Bly

My friend Organ Tapes’ amazing cover of Gwen Stefani’s ‘Cool’.
