I (Charles) have a song out today called "Life" on YouTube, Spotify, etc. Lisa Vitale who was on the Brewer Grouse episode of E1 (as well as an episode of Fortune Kit) added vocals. In other news, there's no new episode this week but it's not me and Alex's fault. This is the culprit:

She's recovering from surgery and won't let me forget it.
LIFE
life, end to end we're millipedes
now see the infant teething
now see the sun recede
life, when's your meeting start?
life, what unstable harmony
like birds and nests and thieves
the risk comes naturally
life, plant your marigolds
like air and earth and sky receive
some sacred gift from you
in the shadow of the womb
in the sun you're lying next to me
every day, the refrain of joy without a name
slow days must have brought you to me
magic bathed in simple beauty and sparrows' songs
life, sleep the afternoon
like all the clouds and seas comprise
some sacred gift to you
some melancholic tune
in the sun you're lying next to me
every day, the refrain of joy without a name
slow death must have brought you to me
share this barely spoken notion before it's gone
slow days must have brought you to me
magic bathed in simple beauty and sparrows' songs
life, one drop in the sea
born choking on your own breath
