Influences: Perched on the ocean I’ll call to you Collect all I have lived till now And risk it for your ears You have come in the weather To wait on our noise Let me spread my feathers and strain my bones What we are Is this And fortunate, under this sky.Jess McAvoy March 2007
Sounds Like: What were those songs we used to sing? Long before the Island sank into the ocean. Long before the birds were stripped of their wings, doomed to swim with the very fish they used to snatch from waves in mid-flight. Those songs that no man among the living can recall. They were the young and privileged that took the music and broke away from the mainland. Caring little for how the Gods or the Earth would retaliate. See now the Island rise once more. Soon the birds will fly again and a new Empire will arrive armed with trumpets and turn tables, whispering "What were those songs we used to sing?" Nick Vorrath (Dec 2006)
