Duet II. 07:58
Venus in the east 5 a.m. feeling like I can get mine condo out in Malibu weekend trips to Greek Corfu fortifications thick and high I intuite another way entertain another notion roots deep in herstory tentative arrival hunger in our home homeless in our house illiteracy and neglect to sleep without a meal to bed without a blanket horizon of deep hopelessness I intuite another way entertain another notion roots deep in herstory tentative arrival future in the morning strike out for the new place rising to the steepest incline fasting for the family feasting on the wonder dance in twin circles of light I intuite another way entertain another notion roots deep in herstory tentative arrival

Duet III. 04:11
not all of us were gentle when the blue coats came not all of them were killers the effect was the same in the past true it was when the blue coats came bringing devastation continuous today who do you call the savage who laid the long trail of tears? whirling dervish death when the blue coats came harvesting the children the women and men massacre without warning when the bluecoats came martyr red early morning like buffalo from the train who do you call the savage who laid the long trail of tears? refrain: winter and spring mountain stream birchbark boats on the great lake summer and fall adobe wall prairie wind scented my way the land that we walked when the blue coats came no one of us could sell what was not in our name spinning in the firmament when the blue coats came spiritual spiraling ancient star plan who do you call the savage who laid the long trail of tears?

In a building some occasion some procedure some event in another something other an unnerving silence kept still another random tenant such disturbing sentiment at the grocer from a jokester something lighter in intent some people can talk some people cannot I may not understand you can't even say your name but the place where we are standing has arisen from the flames resurrected from the ashes once re-born and once re-made once in death and once in darkness now in commerce so engaged building warehouses of folly business towers stab the sky disenchanted yet addicted to the plastic ash tray lie from the yacht in Boston Harbor to the Kennebunkport place the obsequious servant pentagon vast waste in an orchard some occasion some procedure some event in a wetland something other an unnerving silence kept on a hilltop random tenant such a wary sentiment at the shoreside at the high tide some fish laughter some fish spent some people can talk some people cannot

about

Willeye (Willie Oliver) and Tom Ferguson jam weekly. We've started to record some of the more experimental side of what we do. Individual notes for each piece. Will be adding to it as we go. Guest guitarist Kiyoaki Kato sat in on the trio pieces. The trio is ten tracks recorded separately with all ten simulataneous on Trio Mistress (so titled to aggravate the sexism in language that tends to privilege the masculine).
