Han Pedunkten Quell is a transcendent work of brilliance. it reminds me of my former home worlds, Buffy Sainte Marie, Huun Huur Tu, Tattletale, and the Raincoats in the same way that our mind's matrixing creates divination of endless wisdom and nurturing power from the light years between constellations. Favorite track: The Water.

Button Eye 03:57
Dear Beautiful Button Eye Button nose No body Knows Why the wild wind Smashes her body Against the coast Words are all turned around Looking back at the sound From whence they came And all of our tongues are tied Speaking in riddles and rhymes I cant tell what I’m thinking at this time When you put me on the spot I dig a hole through the floor Back to the ocean Am I really that wave Crashing and thrashing Are you really that storm Quietly waiting With your hand on your heart Am I really that wave Crashing and thrashing Are you really that storm Quietly waiting Dear Beautiful Button Eye Button nose No body knows Why the wild wind Smashes her body Against the coast Am I really that wave Crashing and thrashing Are you really that storm Quietly waiting With your hand on your heart

Neon Vampire 03:20
Little Neon Vampire Drinks bubblegum blood From a blue eyed boys Soccerball head And a hairy beast Tethered to a skinny leash Drags his tongue On the hot concrete Strange places Skateboard faces Skid kids wasted like little snakes With faces Shake shake little liquid tears Flutter silk Spider thread Cover your chest Carry your babies on your back bone Sacrifices to the wolf throne hHold your arms in a cross bone Hold your arms in a cross bone Long life noodle Little girl with cake face Rides her BMX like a beast of burden Through the streets of Saturn Big black boots Knee high against hot blue sky Heavy set bleach blond curl pearl Carrying flowers to her mother Shake shake little liquid tears Flutter silk Spider thread Cover your chest Carry your babies on your back bone Sacrifices to the wolf throne Hold your arms in a cross bone Hold your arms in a cross bone

The being was Scared to be born It turned and turned Around and around In its enclosure where It was warm and there was no Sound I called out to it I called out to it I called all of its names But still it never came I called out to it I called out to it I called all of its names But still it never came The being was afraid of the light It curled up curled up curled up tight In a small small ball Hoping it would Disappear But it did not It still was there It hid it’s little face From the world It felt disgraceful In it’s being formed Out of skin and bone I called out to it I called out to it I called all of it’s names But still it never came I called out to it I called out to it I called all of its names But still it never came The being Went inside its little mind Searching for The voices it had left behind In another place In another place I called out to it I called out to it I called all of it’s names But still it never came I called out to it I called out to it I called all of its names But still it never came

I took a sliver From the side of my heart And set it to sinking where the rivers do part Outside my window It’s dark as my heart I’ve got the candle But you’ve got the spark Tell me Child How can it be I'm in the ocean And you’re in the sea Something's wrong but everyone can see All of the children have fallen asleep You told me your tale Then you ran away I had no time to speak. I’ve been trying to search my memory For those things You accuse me of. Tell me Child How can it be I'm in the ocean And you’re in the sea Something's wrong and everyone can see All of the children have fallen asleep I travelled the seas I travelled the land I thought I heard words from the palm of your hand When you left You broke all my hearts I couldn’t sleep I was scared of the dark Tell me Child How can it be I'm in the ocean And you’re in the sea Outside my window It’s black as my heart I’ve got the candle But you’ve got the spark
