about

March 2007, New York City. The snow is falling thick and I smudge along in wet boots to my friend Luna Uehara's apartment in Brooklyn. Luna has a lovely Steinway grand and a fluffy puddy cat and they both pine for her while she is off at work. I cuddle kitty and muddle around with Joplin and Ligeti until PING in flies this ditty. Time for a two buck slice before hopping the subway back to Manhattan. Lyrics are scribbled on a napkin and it's a good day's song catching.

ps: Ladies, Goodle the 'natal lunar phase' it'll knock you out. Might even knock you up!

lyrics

Lunar Lady oh so bright, be my wishing well tonight
I'll go fishing with my kite if you'll shine for me

Lady whisper in the wind, starry siren songs of yin
Call the tide to come on in and shine for me

Thunder, old man's cough – shake the earth, scare me off
Hear you weepin' up above, cryin' to the sea

Lunar Lady oh so high, when I die to you I'll fly
Be the air that holds you tight as you shine for me
