about

After the drum beat of each song, again excluding "DEPENDENT I," I wrote the bass line. Thus, a number of these songs are bass heavy -- something somewhat new to me. "DEPENDENT III" is perhaps the best example of the bass leading the song.

lyrics

DEPENDENT III

ding. Hear the boxing bell
in your head. See the bikinied babe
with “Round Two” in her hands. Round three,
round four and we’re doing shots at the bar.
Round five, round six and it’s a knock out,
pass out at eight. In high school
I wrote a compare and contrast essay
where conflicting points of view were personified
as boxers. I stopped writing,

The fuel
flees
from the leap-
ing flap
of a fall leaf.
Peaceful:
“We be pace
in the streets
till he peel
back the pale
blue face.”
