The top word is English followed by how it is written in the Cherokee language followed by how it is spelled in English then how to pronounce it phonetically.

Great day to pick up Will Mulaneys record “Ring of Fire-Molasses”, which is still the album of the year for me. Nobody’s revisiting old time material like Will rn, & he is also a gifted sculptor, furniture/instrument maker, & local advocate for out music. Fav track “Child Ballad #56 (abridged)”

Yet another devastating phenomenon we're all going to become more familiar with in the advent of fossil-fueled marine heatwaves

My new book of haiku - Just Another Mark - drops on February 8. There are three ways to get it:
1: Get it from me directly, either in person (trunk slangin') or off my website where I'll have copies.
2: Get your favorite local independent bookstore to order it!
19: The evil place will have it.

Michael Chapman told me this story when I was on tour with him, from bio pg 117 ebook.
“John was drinking brandy & coke...At around 2 AM John is naked at the end of the dinner table except for a genuine Nazi flag from the Nureberg rallies. He was moaning that Melody wouldnt let him wear it to bed..”
