The above is a draft text that I saved in my phone a few nights ago - an aide memoire for a vague idea for a piece of music, believe it or not.

If it ever gets anywhere, I might post it up on here.

Sometimes I wonder about you????

But I expect Zola understands and will say something profound ....
Like ..... daffodils are really spies.

Naaah it's all straightforward, the letters are chords and the capitals are where the accents are. Come on!

I've been playing around with said idea and it does seem to have a lot of potential, at least to these ears.

Oh, and did you notice that zola replied to your comment on that previous thread?

zola a social thing said...

Indeed Zola understands.
There is a distinct lull in the F's and the C's here.

What kind of blog is it that leaves out the f'ing and the c'ing stuff?

Like fuckin daffodils as if they were not harmless to our greening of society.

Pure folly.

No b flat or d either zola, one wonders what the world is coming to.

Reading the Signs said...

Phew - I thought it might have been one of your more experimental poems. Was just about to formulate a comment to the effect that it was a bit avant garde for my tastes. But yes, post up the music please.

(word ver: oldies - not Blowing in the Wind, is it?)

trousers said...

Avant garde? Yes, could so easily have been - or worse, it could have been esoteric directions for some interpretive dance, or movement and mime. Not that I'd ever inflict such horrors on my bloggy friends...

The prospect of posting up the finished (if such a thing exists) article might serve as an incentive too.

Oh yes and that's a fantastic word ver, signs - and perhaps a sign in itself - but definitely NOT blowing in the wind ;-)

Dave King said...

Intriguing. I have wandered onto your blog from Fire Byrd's. Impressive, or what? I shall return.

Hi Dave, thanks for dropping by, and yes feel free to do so again! I'll pop over to yours soon, too.
