I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Patiently silking
Stranding together mem'ries
We live spider lives,
Webbing what we thought was -
To be torn by time or truth

Little Saxon soldiers, helmet-hatted,
Over topping hills
Over running forests
Devouring, laying waste
Decaying the before-
Not knowing
Norman winter looms

Lipstick leaves dress as flowers

Paint your pretty lips,
My lovely,
You will never be
With all the paints in all the world
As beautiful as me.

Tamed herbs meant to spice the pot
Now grow as chaos
What was meant for cook's magic
Now a source for witches' spells
