a great dedication Andy, with meaningful commentary on generationally inherited consequence of capitalism\'s rat-race mentality, where consumption of ease with speed, is prioritised above actual quality of \'what\' we consume and much more importantly: \'why\'?..
historically, society overtly worshiped art and creativity, now in this age where everything must be reduced to insignificance if it doesn\'t fit with that \'Netflix and chill\' mentality, we all have greater access to masterpieces and we simply ignore it, diminishing genius to one-eared craziness to fit a narrative of dismissal for legacy\'s we can\'t surpass..
even those few with enough culture and opportunity to appreciate, bring their baggage of stereotyped prejudice and choose to see \'what they\'ve been told\' rather than witnessing and appreciating the skill and beauty that\'s survived centuries, I mean devoid of context who can argue the breath-taking talent of Caravaggio\'s brilliance? such a waste

A fine write Gold.
You know the piece I wrote, similar to 4\' 33\"? It\'s called \'24 hours\'. A silent piece, where I don\'t sing for a whole day! It\'s Number 1 in the charts!
They say \' Record that song every day, Orchi\' (to keep me quiet). lol.

Imagine If You Will.
L. B. Mek said:
\'Imagine all the people
Living for today\'
\'You may say I\'m a dreamer
But I\'m not the only one
I hope someday you\'ll join us
And the world will be as one\'.
your words took me to John\'s lyrics of prayer for unity
and then I imagined at what he would see if he was around
I sighed, wrote these words and moved on, knowing
his legacy of perseverance shall ever remain
if only in write\'s like yours, my friend..
a reassuring read Andy

Sadly folk don\'t look at paintings. How often in a gallery do you see people walking round and never stopping to actually take in and enjoy what is in front of them. I guess most have a closed (I know what I like mentality) and aren\'t prepared to consider anything that falls beyond their narrow remit. A sort of Trump mentality.

A nice tale of the macabre to accompany your music. I believe I will be especially careful if I ever see another \"Vacancy\" sign. A well written tale though. Kept my interest right to the end. (Np pun intended.) Very clever. - Phil A.

Oohhh, scary write Gold. Was the programme \'Tales of the Unexpected\' by Roald Dahl? He\'s a weird one - creepy and strange I think.

Cracked that one , Andy - can I borrow your window when you are out croqueting?
And thanks once more for introducing me to music I wouldn\'t find on my own.

That is really beautiful Goldfinch, like the blurring of the concepts of nature and music toward the end!
I\'m going to be slightly tedious and analytical here (the scientist in me), but this made me think about the inherent music of nature, and I don\'t mean the sounds. I mean the patterns and the rhythms and the tone.

I\'ll meet you halfway Andy and agree

before they become: our yearned-for yesterdays..
wonderful music/video choice btw,
