inherently we all
try explain ourselves,
contortions and rationales.
twisting and bent
just to reverse.
this is not
what i meant,
says the women
yapping about michaelangelo.
funny but true.
we're sent into
this hurlyburly with
pathetic gear. our
tongues flap and
sputter between our
teeth and yet
it feels like
we're not heard.
for all of
the screaming and
yelling, one's voice
is a pitch
below a whisper,
when you really
think about it.
sometimes that's how
i feel about
the june star.
recognition and art
are not the
same thing, desire
for compliments fished
are not real
compliments after all.
are they? so.
here we sit.
e.p. ready to
go? must call
tim about that.
andrew grimm solo
effort ready for
deployment. must rehearse.
must must must.

We are all trying to figure things out. That is what life is. Hopefully by the end we get it. But I think we will probably just leave it for others to continue.
Peter Gabriel said in an interview that any artist who proclaims not to care about recognition is lying, no matter how hard they strive to be true to their vision of their art.
But performance is the ultimate in translating art(or logic)to others so that we more forward as a civilization, even after we individually expire.
I like hearing your band play and reading your ruminations. I think you are a unique, clever and talented person and I am glad that you don't mind sharing. Does that help?
