Oblivion (Love)

SONG LYRIC: Spirit Self is little self's Oblivion -- AND WHOLE SONG IS ON THE PLAYLIST -- DON"T MISS OUT!

Make no more fractured conclusions

zero falderal

I am a way through illusions

hero's journey tall

A thousand miles on a hi-wire

keeps a man awake

Go step by step in the true fire

all for goodness' sake

 

No flock, no block, no fatuous grins

Oblivion (Love)

Oblivion

 

You miss the mark if you believe

more than seeing through

You're better off with some tea leaves

than old priestly coups

God's not some stick in the dead sky

graybeard daddy-o

It is the source of your plum pie:

psychic body flow

 

No flock, no block. . .

 

(Instrum bridge)

 

You're wise to deal with your Shadow

sabotaging grace

It's not a threat, just a bad sow

unawakened face

Ain't no recalcitrant demon

just your woolly head

So get a clue, get a beam on

shift your sight instead

 

No flock, no block, no fatuous grins

Oblivion (Love)

Oblivion

No stock, no crock, no ignorant sin

Oblivion (Love)

Oblivion

"You're wise to deal with your Shadow
sabotaging grace
It's not a threat, just a bad sow
unawakened face
Ain't no recalcitrant demon
just your woolly head
So get a clue, get a beam on
shift your sight instead"

Love this verse , reminds me of Don Juan, if you see Evil stop looking at it !
Thats where it gets it power. A powerful statement

And I listened to this one too...

So get a clue, get a beam on
shift your sight instead

Got my beam on...love these lines, you really are gifted with your usage of words, love the message in this one.

[Pax Analog]

Wow, thanks for dustin' off the '08 vintage live! ;-) I guess I shouldn't be surprised SparrowSong is gettin' with the ol' tune/lyric combo! Cool!

[SparrowSong]

My head is filled with music all day long, so it was nice to listen then read...puts a whole 'nother spin on it.

[Pax Analog]

Yes! Which is why I need to reconstruct more convenience re the reading/listening experience. When I used Playlist, I posted links to my own storyworld archive site (the one used in college curriculum), but since I took that site down, the links are no good, & the SoundClick links aren't deep ones, require going to the site first. But anyway, thanks again for your assiduous attention!

Listening to this would be fun! Is this rock too?? suits for rock acc to me

[alan peter kelly]

a few knowing smiles and snickers were raised from their own oblivion while i read this piece...black humour...impactful turns creating reason to read more which is wholly my intention...

[NoneOfYourBusiness akaK..]

stunned into speechless rapture~

[Ruth]

Wow! Pax, this has blown me away friend!
Simply awesome wording, poignant, hard hitting, think it hit the spot! lol xx

[J Carly]

Due to licensing restrictions, I can't seem to listen to the track. In any case, I really love this. I believe it's my favorite, thusfar. And thank you for your kind review.

Interesting choice of words in this lyrical write. It makes me stretch my mind.

It was the title that really caught me. It reads very well (I'm of the old school that believes poetry was meant to be read aloud) but really moves in the musical version. It reminds me a bit of the song "Mail Order Mystics" written and performed by Chris Smither if you're familiar with it � ?

Also reminds me of a poem I particularly like (author unknown) �

"her lips part in tandem with her thighs
and she enters oblivion on her path to absence. "

This is great stuff, Peace, and I am looking forward to spending more time with your work.

I'm confused by some of the lyrics, like "so get a clue, get a beam on" for one, but man, it's original. It's a welcome break from alot of the other stuff we encounter these days. And I REALLY like what you come up with on your gee-tar, especially the chorus...."no flock no......." that progression is nice.

I am trying to hear this as a song and I can place a bass on it, but I am still trying to place the keyboard [as I feel it would have one] and the vocals to it. Interesting.
