Oak (ft The Neighbor) by xian3 published on 2022-04-28T19:24:59Z The table shown in the picture belongs to a suite of pieces of furniture crafted in the early 1990s for the interior of the Kremlin by an Italian carpenter's workshop specialising in oak-design. A big Thank You to The Neighbor for dropping in and playing a wonderful guitar. Oak 1 Out of one single seed With lots of nutrients to feed Within the ground Out of a natural striving Heavenwardly At least 5 centuries ago Cut one morning Somewhen in the eighties or seventies Last century, supposedly in Italy Your leaves were so green - and Then you stopped to breathe And were stored and dried for ys ref 300 ys to grow, 300 ys to bloom, 300 ys to die That’s your „normal“ life 2 Skilled artistic carpenter hands have worked upon you After your death with devotion Cutting, sanding and priming - „Lying Flat“ on these three pillars Born out of a single notion: "A place to meet", 10 elliptical, oval square Out of one single piece Lacquered in white and Adorned with gold leaf Six meters long, 2.50 wide ref 300 rings to grow, 300 rings to bloom, And then 300 rings to die Oh, that’s your „normal“ life 3 Hard to believe that must be necessary Something like you Being so earthbound and stable Was that already inscribed Somewhere in your fibres ? Ending up as a „dissension-table“ ? Next moment the mad imperator will receive an unwelcome guest and An oppressive breathless coldness spreads Just for an instant before the lightnings of the camera flashes begin And then all this weighs down on you. ref 300 rings to grow, 300 rings to bloom, And then 300 rings to die You would have outlived us many times out Now that you are an icon The outmost insane things Happen at your long edges - and What have you done to deserve that one ?

Yes, a gorgeous table and it can't help that a little man sits at one end. Hopefully it will add its grace to the words spoken across it. Hopefully, as much gracefulness as this song has will influence those situations there. Beautiful music here. ⁓Rebecca 2022-08-29T19:32:26Z Comment by Jamie Rhind very nice 2022-08-21T00:10:28Z Comment by 🎧 *thommo* what a great track...lovely guitar, perfect vocals... 2022-08-20T17:46:39Z Comment by David Dunham Another fine song steeped in mood and melodic musicianship.
