The Blessing Kiss by Daniel "3D" Deardorff published on 2015-12-02T04:58:36Z those in need have to step forward… They have to sing, if they didn’t sing, everyone would walk past, as if they were fences or trees. That’s where you can hear good singing. …god himself comes and stays a long time —Rainer Maria Rilke In order to win membership in the human race, we are asked to pay a "small" price: everything. —Morris Berman The Blessing Kiss For the hopeless and the hated All the broken hearted The doomed and the fated The bound and the parted For all the sick and twisted Defamed and deformed The burned and the blistered The shunned and the scorned There's not much I can do, But I promise you this There is such a thing in this world As the blessing kiss On the town with my woman Ambushed by a curse Men hit on her ask'n: "You his sister or his nurse?" Underestimated, As if I don't exist, So humiliated My spirit is at risk And there's not much I can do, But I'll promise you this There is such a thing in this world As the blessing kiss I need you to see me As Beauty saw the Beast I'll keep on through the famine Dreaming of the feast The blessing kiss received or given In and of the soul Is a sacred confirmation Whatever shape you appear to be in You are whole The blessing kiss received or given Each and every one Confirms the soul's condition And when the Gods wanna hear real song This is where they come To the hopeless and the hated All the broken hearted The doomed and the fated The bound and the parted To all the sick and twisted Defamed and deformed The burned and the blistered The shunned and the scorned It's a rookery of outcast A choir of misfits The only cost of entry: Everything there is. There's nothing else to do, But I'll promise you this There is such a thing in this world As the blessing kiss Recorded on an iPad Air 1 iOS 9.x using Apogee MiC and Jam.
