The Eyes of Others
Hello to all, I wish you well wherever you are. I don't post much but I plan to change that. Here is a nice email I thought I'd share. MB
Hi,
The Eyes of Others by Myssouri
If I sit absolutely still will I vanish from sight?
How can I make my killing in broad daylight?
Crawling through this crowded world, well I’m surrounded and smothered
How can I win back my life from the eyes of others?
From the eyes, from the eyes of others
On the face of a smirking child am I judged and tried?
And it’s like watching my grave defiled, defiled before I’ve died, before I’ve died
Am I Cain? Am I unable? Unable to love my brother?
Have I been branded? Stained? Stamped? Labeled? In the eyes of others?
In the eyes, in the eyes of others
In a dirty bathroom, in a dirty mirror
I wipe it with my sleeve to see it clearer
But I get lost in the threshold between myself and another
And I awaken a smeared spectacle beneath my mother!
My mother! My mother! My mother!
In the eyes!

Merry Goats in Prague
Thank you for a very nice set at a very local bistro in Prague – everyone was so gracious and appreciative. Only a few spoke English – and so once again music is the universal means of communication. I will return!
The Standard Is Poor
Hello! I’m happy to announce I’ll be playing a show somewhere in Budapest in early December. Details on that to come. Meanwhile, here’s a new original from the forthcoming album. Rough draft. Feedback welcome. Well, maybe. 🙂
