the land of all there is

and stairs.

i’m coming upon the realization that poems i write become inspiration for songs.  i base songs off of what i write in poems.  some would say that lyrics are poetry in themselves; they’re right, but only a specific kind of poetry.  the way i write lyrics is different from the way i write poems.  lyrics are sung, and must be written a certain way to fit with melody, whereas poems don’t have to be comfortable in that way.  it’s all about parameters.
