just clocking off after a late session
working on a new one
'the fourth of july'
a stirring anti-war piece
an appeal for pacifism and gentleness
in the face of chisel-jawed militarism
oh it's a heart-rending tale
certain to yank the emotional strings
(if you'll pardon the pun!)
been having some fun with the arrangement
toying with spaghetti western ideas
military tattoo trappings
synthesised bugle horns
synchronised acoustic guitars
united in gleaming arpeggio
an electric rush
stopping short with a brief acapella section
which brings things to a hushed climax
the whole piece ebbing and flowing
like the river of life and death
i hope you'll appreciate it
when it eventually takes its place
in 'the all seeing i' pantheon
sweet dreams
the sweet dreamer
