"The mark of a really great writer is that he or she gives expression to what the masses of mankind think or feel without knowing it. The mediocre writer simply writes what everyone would have said."
-G.C. Lichtenberg


When the Sagebrush Blows  MP3

The night was full of stillness
And the moon shone clear and white
The wind made quiet whispers
Telling secrets to the earth

Faint clouds obscured the stars
Like feathers fanned out thin
Like the wings of truth that have followed me
Drawing changes in their path

I never saw my last days commin'
'Till the age of 29
When my body hurt and I sobered up
And I opened up my eyes

When the sagebrush blows I listen
When the moon shines bright I sit
When the seasons change I taste the things
I didn't know I had

As I sat in midnight's chamber
My mind began to churn
The darkness that enveloped me
Was blackness from within

With seasons change comes slow
But it's sure as breaking dawn
It's as sure as snow that melts away
Leaving flowers in the mud

When the sagebrush blows I listen
When the moon shines bright I sit
When the seasons change I taste the things
I didn't know I had

As morning broke dawn cracked the night
Spilling orange across the sky
The creatures woke and the world turned
And the flowers opened wide

When the sagebrush blows I listen
When the moon shines bright I sit
When the seasons change I taste the things
I didn't know I had
