about

I flew into the Hawaiian Islands in 2004 to do a painting commission and house-sit for friends on Hilo. It was a looooong way from the mainland and I got a strong sense that the islands were the tips of mountains sticking out of the ocean and that land mass went miles into the dark. The visit amounted to a retreat, writing songs on a white grand piano, painting, dabbling in photoshop and spending time in awareness of deep connection.

lyrics

We came in across the water islands obscured by clouds
reminded me of a cauldron wind blowin coils of smoke

scared-y cat I called me and scar-ed is what I were
not of the killer or bandit nor marauding soldiers of war
vulnerable as a baby nocturnal wolf at the door

went deep into the interior wild as the cells in my blood
drank from a dream the color blue-green
cascading stream
