...with snippets of Arirang in between.
Going away is my favorite "love song" by my favorite Anarchist, Utah Phillips--it was originally a tribute to his mentor, Catholic Worker Ammon Hennacy, who helped him get sober and channel his trauma and rage, as a guilt-ridden soldier returned from the wreckage of post-war Korea, into songwriting and solidarity with those around him struggling to survive.
Little Bird Song is my melody, and the lyrics are my adaptation of one of my favorite poems from Amy Carmichael, a nature mystic and missionary, often likened to a kind of Protestant Mother Teresa.
Recorded just before heading to work, on our rooftop in what for a little while remains a beautiful little town in the midst of Brave New World. Most of the local landowners have caught the progress-death-urge epidemic, and they have long since scheduled their homes and everyone else's for execution and development. Meanwhile, we renters are trying to make the most of it and live our lives here while we can.
