I like this. The verse that starts, “Caress your naked thought …” is really great. Strong images with cool and clever wordplay.

Well thank you! I can never decide where I lay on the court jester to wordsmith continuum but I do love playing with words :-) I think I shall record and post some more. Do spoken word pells often get remixed?
Cheers!

Hi there! Dunno if spoken words get much attention but I really like some of them. I did a lot of remixes for ccMixter poets like “essesq”, “titaka”, “MiElle” and “MelissaK”. I liked the words and the timbre of the voices. But often the recording quality was poor. And when setting to music I’d often have to “splice” individual syllables to fit the beat. This was time consuming and my stuff hardly got noticed. Still, I enjoyed working on it at the time!
