Here's a little poem I wrote:
Better to be tormented by a woman Than to be tormented by the memory Of a woman. |

Here's a little poem by me:
The size of a man's heart Is inversely proportional To the size of his wallet |

________________________________________________
quote from markpeg ....better to be tormented by a woman Than tormented by the memory Of a woman ________________________________________________ Oh I agree, what ever we say to the women folk has to be now, while we are alive,....as a poet,...as a songwriter,...I must think of what I want to say,...and somehow find the words that best express what it is I have to say,...getting these song-lyrics into print is my goal,...most of what I write is about women and what I feel. I love women and how they make me feel,...that is I think its not too bad The song-lyrics,...for 'Love, with subtitles' are about returning to the magic and wonderful feelings I found in love. Sometimes when not in love, it is like being the tinman, after being rained on,...like wishing Dorothy would march along,... find the tinman and oil up all the rusty fittings,..ect. Sometimes I am in the doghouse,...I sleep on the sofa,... I always try to explain and get back into good graces When I make a mistake, and have sang a sour note in a love song,... immediately I try to correct the error and say Iam sorry. Like a drunk in a midnight choir,...I sometimes get out of key,...I guess. Most of the time,...I stay in key and play the notes,.... I think of everything,... Once in along time I guess I goof up afterwards I do my best to repair and to somehow have a dialog and 'conversation with' her,...I try to make amends where possible. Being out of love is not fun,...like the tinman in the Widard of Oz, ... I feel strong and tough,..and yet hollow and in need of a clock. Like the Ironman,...on the outside I am made of heavy metal,... and yet on the inside,...my heart needs her fortress around it to feel safe. Being around her,...its like I felt again,...wonderfully warm and in focus. When Iam singing,...it feels like everything is okay,....that its not too bad. ,Stardettes

Date President's day, Monday Feb 16th, 2oo9 -- A little advice and a few helpful pointers on songwriting is what Iam seeking. I think the BANGLES have a real talent and are very good. I'd like to write music and lyrics that a group like the BANGLES could sing. My days are full of toil and work so I decided to see a BANGLES concert. Before the concert,...I thought the evening,...so far,..had been rather,... grey, boring and dull. When Vicki and the BANGLES walked on stage and washed the room in a nice and warm, fuzzy, cozy, pink, glow,..everything changed for the better. The BANGLES' brand of electric rock and roll music is excellent and the lyrics have truth and honesty....the BANGLES lyrics are clear and easy to understand. Ive been saying little prayers that my song-lyrics are good enough to record. Maybe god will give me the answer,... Iam grateful for this computer space that the BANGLES provide the fans,..like me. I've met some nice people thru the BANGLES,...I'd enjoy showing my songs off. I think I could make some adjustments to the song lyrics to make the words better,... if I knew what the BANGLES and the ladies of the fan base think of my lyrics so far. Some of my songs are duets and I can only guess at what she said,...or would sing. I can only improvise bass lines until she can tell me the alto of herside of the song. The BANGLES have helped me alot by letting me post my song-lyrics here,... this thread has helped me see my song-lyrics in print,...its wonderful,...almost holy. A beacon at the end of the tunnel,...a good thing,...a different light,... than the devil's yell in the other direction,... thats what I see in Vicki and the BANGLES as a musicians. Because we all seem to sing now from the same page,... I stay busy working on my songs,.... and tonite I say thanks to the BANGLES for the good light,...encouragement and example as rock and roll music role models. ,Stardettes ____________________________________________

Lou Reed knocked up Patti Smith
Made her pregnant with a song And together they gave birth to Punk Rock. |

I've had many a piece of music at least partially inspired by the Bangles, but I've never really had lyrics inspired by them. The closest thing would
be this lyric that I wrote the melody/harmonies for with the girls in mind:
GRAY DAY Words & Music by Dan Corson VERSE: Gray day but I can take it If not I'll have to fake it Looking through my window I see the beauty of the rain Muggy heat; A full moon rising It's beautiful but not surprising Staring out my window I feel the color of your pain CHORUS: Although the Earth's not quaking Nothing can stop our shaking Gazing out into the eyes of night VERSE: It's so dark but I'm not hiding I just don't feel like fighting Singing through the thunder I hear your beautiful refrain Sleeping colors at the hillside Please don't go until I'm outside As you pass me by I listen to all you have to say CHORUS: Although the Earth's not quaking Nothing can stop our shaking Gazing out into the great divide Sad; But I can't help laughing Although our lives are passing Moving forward right before our eyes VERSE: Gray day but I can take it If not I'll try and fake it Sitting at my window hearing the falling of the rain So sweet; The sun is rising She stops the sky from crying Drying up the water as it washes down the drain... Copyright (c) 2006 DaCoDa Music They came out quick, so I didn't change them, and I'm sure that some things don't make sense as a result. You can find a rough instrumental of it here: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Dan-Corson/74342700042 If and when I make my first album (MUCH more when than if, obviously), this track is definitely going to be on it.

I don't have the musical skills to set my poems to music, but I am sort of thinking of learning to play the guitar. I figure I could get away with plunking
away on an acoustic in my apartment without getting evicted. :-)
