Ahira's Hangar

Nope. Although somebody once set one of my poems to music.

Over the years I've written about 100 songs. The tunes have always been more about the music than the words but I managed to throw together enough to get the band a voice.

Its off the top of my head but here is the first song I ever wrote back in High School.

Tigermilk

I was sitting in a joint
when everyone began to point
They all jumped up and ran away
when one ran past I heard him say...

Tigermilk
Tigermilk
Tigermilk

I jumped up and looked around
you won't believe what I found
There was a tiger at the door
from under him began to pour

Tigermilk
Tigermilk
Tigermilk

Not exactly Grammy material but you gotta start somewhere. Heh

I've written two songs, one Blues the other western I'll have to dig them out one of these years...
Just Yesterday Mornin' and
Cline Corners
Found it on a horse about a century ago
O Cline Corners New Mexico
Where the grass is green
The rivers rise high
Through mountians tall and mean
The blackbirds fly
The blackbirds fly...

COOOOOL!!!

This is kind of neat. I wrote a song based on my experiences writing fiction and lyrics. I've included a link to the actual song I recorded.
dAN suggested the ending for this recording. Seemed appropriate given the way it sounds.



WRITERS RUNNING

SOMETHING IN ME KEEPS MAKE BELIEVE WRITING
SLAMMING WORDS AGAINST A SEE THROUGH STONE WALL
THEY'RE BREAKING FREE WITH THE FORCE THAT WON'T HELP ME
SHATTERED LETTERS CHANGING SHAPE TO STAND TALL

THE WRITERS KEEP LYING
PLAYING AT THE CALL
THE WRITERS KEEP TRYING
LYING AT THE WALL

I TRAVEL LIGHTLY, RUNNING IN MY HEAD
I HURDLE CHANGES THROWN ACROSS MY WAY

KEEPING MY BUSY, KEEPING MY DIZZY
GONNA TAKE IT WITH ME, TRY AND LET IT TAKE ME

I wish I had a better computer, so that I could listen to your song. I like the lyrics.
