Anyway, I write poetry. As the lyricist of WD HAN, my favorite way to write is to take one of my poems and adapt it and look at it in a whole new way through the music. It's an awesome way to look at the point I was trying to make creatively in a whole new way.
This poem is called "Stellar" and the song "Class Project Earth" lyrics were based on it. Hope you like it.
Spence,
Front man
Gaze ascending as the sun recedes
Wonderment at wonders one sees
The Dippers, Orion and Centaur
Just fireflies to be caught in a jar?
Or do I believe sermons of priests?
There resides The sacrosanct beast
Stars were created by greater good
By He who cannot be understood
Or should I put faith in white coats?
A plastic capsule stuck mid-throat?
Men who sell theories as sober fact
Question them, get Big-Bang back
They have constellations explained;
Soil and stars are one and the same!
Maybe arrogance is our truth-eclipse
Man's course set in ignorant ellipse
Maybe those little points in the sky
Are reflections of millions of eyes
From microscope lenses aimed at us
Class project "Earth" earns A plus
Yet, in the end, when the dust falls
As I lie content, admiring them all
I don't care from where they came
I only mind that my friends remain
For as I engage in stellar interplay
This-worldly problems shrink away
I see a view more than me and mine
I see setting suns continue to shine
Ever seen that in Bible or textbook?
Neither. You're invited up to look.
So, where can I read more of your works?
