lyrics

The place was dark and dusty and half-lost
In tangles of old alleys near the quays,
Reeking of strange things brought in from the seas,
And with queer curls of fog that west winds tossed.
Small lozenge panes, obscured by smoke and frost,
Just shewed the books, in piles like twisted trees,
Rotting from floor to roof—congeries
Of crumbling elder lore at little cost.

I entered, charmed, and from a cobwebbed heap
Took up the nearest tome and thumbed it through,
Trembling at curious words that seemed to keep
Some secret, monstrous if one only knew.
Then, looking for some seller old in craft,
I could find nothing but a voice that laughed.

Bryant O'Hara Atlanta, Georgia

Programmer, Poet, Science Fiction/Anime Geek - not necessarily in that order.
I think I know enough about music to be dangerous.

I write poems and songs with science fictional elements.
I write music with whatever software or code I can find or write myself.
I use whatever musical genre works for the piece.
I am always searching for the "sense of wonder" and am amazed at where I find it. ... more
