the origin of a song

a new poem arrived this morning...I have fired it off to the guys to see what we want to do with it, musically. My first instinct is something hard-edged and aggressive, but something painfully, tauntingly slow might make a nice counterpoint to the blatant, brutal lyrics.

I want to thank, totally, the lady who inspired it (but I will spare her the scrutiny of using her name here).

The title of the poem is "Burning in this chosen sphere" and it is about out of control passion made manifest.

I won't publish it before the CD comes out on the 24th.

Oops! Did I let that slip?
