While I’m finalizing a Fade-to-Black Fall Playlist, here’s a sneak preview of one of the songs – fitting in tone, lyrics, and atmosphere. Moody as fuck, ambivalent, decadent and more than a little sinister, it slinks along for a very late Friday soundtrack.
I wore all black today – it’s the uniform of this fall season. It also marks a shift from my typical garb of crazy colors and wild combinations; it also fits the mood at hand, which is black as the night.
Still, I see the stars.
Before a late meditation, I stepped outside and looked up at the dark sky. An airplane blinked and slowly crossed in a gentle arc, then the stars began to appear as my eyes adjusted. They are always there – sometimes it just takes a bit of effort and patience to see them.
