The Terminal
By David
Ah, what a place.
It is so and quiet in these walls.
It's a place where the sound stands a chance of finding its way.
And I'm grateful 'cause, man, there are a lot of gigs that's just hard.
The sound doesn't a chance.
A lot of times there's a gig that's between and somewhere else.
You really wouldn't go there to it, but the booking agent says "Well you're on your way. Why don't you stop and play, you know, the Terminal Tavern."
As my friend Gamble would say, "What a orchard."
I mean straining good, fine art sensibility through that veil of chicken wire.
It's the kind of place where you gaze about you at those walls of pecky Cyprus and pine wood with frontier memorabilia and mint-condition tire tool sets.
And the ceiling under slung with net encrusted with detritus and streaming down through the steaming midnight air, a million shattered dreams that dangle like declensions of despair.
And the daily drunks line the walls like lemmings in repose.
The festering assaulting their entrails, like time-release suicide.
They're stuck to sticky floor and they're not moving.
And you think, "What do need?"
Well, I have that.
What I got?
I've got an acoustic guitar, not enough.
got words.
I if they stand a chance to be heard.
music doesn't stand a chance.
I mean, I can sound.
I have chords.
I strings.
I can sound.
Who sound?
We need music and is much bigger than that.
Music is with a capital "T."
Music is hearing a song that like your song, 'cause it's just what you've been dreaming of or thinking of, or praying for.
Suddenly speaking right to you.
And sure, there're all these people here but they're just superfluous.
It's your song and it was just for you.
It hits home and it's real, 'cause it's coming some place much bigger.
But in that place you look around and you think, "Oh man there's no chance for this to happen. so many distractions."
There's distractions.
All you can do is it out.
I think Sting's analogy of songs is a great one saying, "It's a in a bottle."
You take all your best and dreams and send it out in a bottle.
it in the ocean.
Whoever gets it and when they get it, well it has more to do the ocean than it has to do with you.
That's good, the ocean can be trusted, if the is right.
it out as best you can.
