Disquiet Junto 0308 Giving Thanks
The Disquiet Junto this week has a Thanksgiving theme, asking for a piece that expresses gratitude.
I've a lot to be thankful for and spent Friday wondering who or what to focus on. Then on Friday night I visited my friend Alicia Boyd's Tumblr and liked her prose 'Liberation Please'.
While the theme isn't exactly gratitude, it does pick up on a few themes for me. I met Ms Boyd at Burning Seed, an event which has changed my life, and she recently appropriated a line from one of my haiku. So I thought I'd show my gratitude for her interest in my writing by appropriating some of her's.
This morning I experimented with making the words sit on a chord progression and then quickly recorded this take.
