The Phoenix
Not an Improv! This was our first collaboration together. It was also my first attempt at writing lyrics.

Grain By Grain
...the Mountain of Evil will come, unobserved! Be ye ever vigilant! -M-

Solome
Not an Improv! Examining our relationship with the Whore of Babylon(A K A World-Dominating, Governmental Entities) during the last days, these lyrics are a hodge-podge of snippets taken from other writings of mine. I thought I'd arranged them in a rather pleasing and meaningful way. The rest of the song was orchestrated piece-meal as well. -M-

America!
Unadulturated Improv on Voice, Guitar, and Keyboard. As is usual I don't know what Bill is going to sing and he has no idea what I am going to play. Real live jam material here. -M-

Fat Lady
(written in homage to the material world) This is our favorite improv... a magical moment where the words and music come together so beautifully. It was songs such as this which inspired us to continue in our unorthodox musical approach. -M-

The Devil Himself
These lyrics transpired while watching televangelist Robert Tilton.

Worship
The moment in time where conception occurs is the "ONLY PLACE OF REALITY". Nothing of merit exists outside "THAT PLACE"... excepting of course forms of reverence for "THAT MOMENT"... the moment "TWO AGREE"... ie left&right eye see, left&right feet walk, left&right hands working... -M-

What Is Truth
The simple truth about the truth is, that it is what it is... and that's a fact! ; ) ~M~

"petting" God
All movement is spurred by the Spirit. Our moods are but reactions to this activity. Thoughtful reasonings upon this fact are recognitions of God. -M-

Face Of Death
Perfect for those timid of their feelings on death, I'd simply love to have William perform this tune troubadour-style at my funeral. -M-

Flow
A Metaphilosophical Jam on the "Gravity" of Life.

UnElevator
Don't let living your life pass you by.

"NOW"ing!!
Metaphilosophical meanderings on the moment, "Now"... past and future are no things at all except relative to that one constant, "Now", which is the only time we ever have. No thing ever happens or happened outside of it. "Now" is nothing if not everything... now has it forever been... and now shall it ever be. -M-

More Precious than Gold!
And what is the Truth, but The King in all his Glory!

Against the Law
"You can't fight City Hall." ...That's not exactly true. ...Maybe it's just that you "SHOULDN'T" ...because you'll never "win". ...Yet, fighting "lost" causes ...is the "ONLY WAY" you'll ever "FIND" them!!!! -M-

the Tide
Experiencing futility, living amongst the blind, the deaf, and the dumb... Yet, there is still Hope within that loneliness.

fruits of Fear
Being so afraid to move, they even fear the movement of others. These 'dead' will surely drag you down!

Medicinal Music
A song about healing properties in music.

Solid Blue Band
Some of my writing journals contain "Dream Logs" and this is one of 'em.

Honeybee
What is life for? ...What's its purpose? ...Why do we live? ...We are nothing without life! ...Everything is contained within it! ...Life is the chosen one. It is the chance and the challenge and the cherished. We are! And I am!

Spermatozoa!
Why aren't we still just as excited and hopeful as ever? We once were!

Man
And what is "Man", that thou art mindful of him?

Monotonous
A little yin/yang, fire/water, "opposites attract"-style word amalgamation concerning things which are elaborated upon in both more and less obtuse ways elsewhere in my writings. -M-

Jesus Priced!
As is customary with our improvs, these words are being spoken aloud for the very first time... as you listen! And in this song, nothing has been added nor, for better or worse, taken away.

the dying vesture
Be it crown of thorns, robe of Joseph, or a mark of Caine... be not afraid to put upon ye the dying vesture!

Twitchin'
Some rather disturbing contemplations...

Draw Near
From the RedRoom to you, a hymn.

A(lonely)nother Day
Acceptance from others never invokes "happiness"... when it is attained through the forsaking of those most "cherished parts" of yourself. With the exception of the strings appearing midway through, this is purely improvisational.

DeathAngel!
This is an embellished improv featuring bass, guitar, and vocal with a drum machine. You'll hear me expounding upon the Angel of Death a bit before the song actually begins. -M-

Know Thine Enemy!
"Know" thy friend! Imagine him your enemy!

what's behind the door...
Mixture of improvs: bluesy guitar-bass improv was used as catalyst for a drum-vocal improv.

Cat's Face
Scaredy Cat: An analogy of what one instinctively does when confronted with the "Light" of one's true self.

Hiding in the Dark
...and aren't we all... in some way, shape or fashion... indeed... -M-

Waterloo
What is YOUR "Waterloo"? Well, whatever it is, this song is chanting and cheering for your decision to go right on through with it. -M-

Simpleton
A parable from the seed. This one was taken as a snippet from the middle part of n even larger piece. Imagine how boring THAT would be... this song lasting three times longer than it now does. ;) -M-

Expectations
Our outlook affects how we view our lives.

keleidoscope
Improvisation on a Casio and bass with singing... some unadulturated FUN!

Sun Hymn
I wrote this as a Hymn for the Sun. It was to be sung unto the sun while it's setting as a prayer for it's safe and sure return... or maybe, it could be a prayer for my own safe and sure return, such that I'd be able to see it again another day... -M-

Eurika!
What happens upon finding "the answer"? We see it as being "new". We see that it is "good". We then perpetuate this "good news" at the expense of everything else. ;) -M-

The Plan
"Man" AND his "FALL"... SATAN,"Victorious"... "intended" and "planned"... by an EVIL GENIUS!! -M-

Melancholia
This song is about losing someone special. It expresses the feelings one goes through when seeing a precious, unique, and magical relationship disappearing, apparently without remedy. -M-

Apache Tear
I met Bill one evening at the home of my friend, Frank. After chatting awhile he pulls out his classical guitar and begins to play. This is the first song he performs that night. It still invokes fond memories upon listening to it. -M-

Shadows
Not an Improv! And in your wake the Light will leave it... a shadow.

Alchemical Studies
Some Sun, some Sky, some Earth, some Light, some Shadow, some Thoughts...

Kingdom of SET
Not an Improv! Biblically inspired and tempered with a little bit of my own metaphilosophy, this song runs the gamut from the Old Testament's book of Genesis to the New Testament's Gospel of St. John(while tripping over some Esoterica thrown in by me!) -M-

Extremities
Standing in the footsteps of Giants.

FOOL
A re-make of an Improv, this song was recorded line by line; precept by precept. In the lyrics I had set about describing the Fool card from the Aleister Crowley Book of Thoth Tarot Deck.

Our Duty
The Tree of Life.(The intro is somewhat subdued... starts off small and then it grows very tall)

to be Real
And what would YOU not do for not to be all that it is that you should be? -M-

777
Not an Improv! A hole-y number... for surely there are seven of them in your head.
