Going Home

December 2008 by

Oh Hellagems. Such grand plans I had.

This morning saw me unprepared. Rather than posting from the vaults, a quick sketch would better fit the bold spirit of our new experiment, I thought.

An unstudied 10 minute sketch can certainly showcase one's cliches. It resembles this song. Could be a good thing, I guess.

Not that there aren't better things in the tubes. We shall consider this a baseline.

A year in exile and nothing much to show
A broken pair of glasses and a borrowed Yamaha PSR-300 piano

I'm going home

Two weeks left so I don't have time to burn
After waiting in line some hours I have permission to return

I'm going home

I have no idea if it will soothe this loneliness
Or if I still will feel as close
To the people I have left

I'm going home

Going Home

    Three cheers for boldness! Now I must go play piano myself, and nurture the seed of inspiration you have planted. I think a big part of the bold experiment will be learning from each other's cliches.

    I likes. I pretty much will be posting something quick and dirty since the past days have been occupied with (not) writing a film paper. But how dirty will I get. I would like to go Dirty South, but with the cold it is hard to conjure my inner Lil' Jon. We shall see!
