lyrics

Lawn chair

His grandson was not good at baseball.

He did not possess the tools
of his forefathers
And was further cursed
by being left handed

Because he was told
He kept on playing
And inevitably rose
Through Little League
To Pony and Colt

The year He made
the JV team
The starter
at the only position
He could play hit .800

Having the second string
Firmly tethering him
to the bench
He helplessly watched
His superior at the plate
Where it appeared
as if he had obtained the power
To slow time just enough
And see Every pitch
To connect, than redirect
the energy for yet another hit.

The grandson knew full well
he was too slow for the field
And the wrong hand to catch

So he started to bring
a folding chair to games
He soon stopped wearing spikes
And donned flip flops instead
Unknowingly accepting his failure
In baseball as a preordained fate

about

The Uncivil Society Seattle, Washington

I do, because I love to do it. I understand that I am a hack musician, a terrible vocalist and a sloppy graphic artist. I don’t care about achieving perfection, because I am happiest while being engaged in the exalted messiness of my creative process. I don’t worry about capturing the perfect take. I am satisfied by the pure joy I derive from expressing myself without filter or restraint. ... more
