On the death of David Bowie (By Emma/written in 2 minutes when I woke up!)
So I hear from you all that he has died,
the man that touched so many lives.
He has not left you in your heart,
now it's time to do your part,
keep his music alive through the dark.
His shining light will never depart.
He left a legacy to show,
his wishes for those who know.
Never let your creativity die,
From the starman waiting in the sky.

The Dark & The Light
The Dark & The Light
This cruel winter
claims its marionettes
in a heartbeat.
The dark man
raised from the black rock.
Turning
as the glittering light
cascades over the road,
casting long shadows.
He sees a face
and then another
and then another,
a rainbow chameleon
changing with the wind,
never setting
always fluid.
Rebirth.

bowie (if you didn't know)
rag my workaday clothes on the hobo tree
the messianic alien has descended once more
from the canyons of manhattan to remind all
and sundry just what we’ve been missing
more avuncular, maybe?, than those times before
but lay down the prayer beads and rosary
a wonderful day has arrived
(available on vinyl, download and cd)
less vanguard of the wired new wierd
