The Tavern
By Wilcox
Ah, what a place.
It is so and quiet in these walls.
It's a where the sound really stands a chance of finding its way.
And I'm grateful 'cause, man, there are a lot of gigs that's just hard.
The sound stand a chance.
A lot of times there's a gig that's somewhere and somewhere else.
You really wouldn't go there to play it, but the booking agent says "Well you're on way. Why don't you stop and play, you know, the Terminal Tavern."
As my friend would say, "What a skull orchard."
I mean straining good, fine art sensibility through that veil of chicken wire.
It's the kind of place where you gaze about you at those walls of pecky Cyprus and wood adorned with frontier memorabilia and mint-condition tire tool sets.
And the ceiling under slung with fish net encrusted with detritus and streaming down through the steaming air, a million shattered dreams that dangle like declensions of despair.
And the daily just line the walls like lemmings in repose.
The festering booze assaulting their entrails, time-release suicide.
They're to that sticky floor and they're not moving.
And you think, "What do need?"
Well, I don't that.
What have I
I've got an guitar, it's not enough.
got words.
I wonder if stand a chance to be heard.
Maybe doesn't stand a chance.
I mean, I can sound.
I have chords.
I strings.
I can sound.
Who sound?
We music and music is much bigger than that.
Music is timing with a "T."
Music is a song that sounds like your song, 'cause it's just what you've been dreaming of or thinking of, or praying for.
Suddenly speaking right to you.
And sure, there're all these other people here but they're superfluous.
It's your song and it was just for you.
It hits home and it's real, 'cause it's from some place much bigger.
But in that place you look around and you think, "Oh man there's no chance for this to happen. so many distractions."
always distractions.
All you can do is it out.
I think Sting's analogy of songs is a one saying, "It's a message in a bottle."
You take all best hopes and dreams and send it out in a bottle.
it in the ocean.
Whoever gets it and when they get it, well it has more to do with the ocean than it has to do you.
That's good, the can be trusted, if the timing is right.
Send it out as you can.
