Golden Thorn
with Nicholas Iris
“Golden Thorn”
Vashon Island, Washington
I had a habit of giving my guitar away
Once again
I found myself without a guitar
We were recording at our friend Abram’s log cabin in the woods on Vashon Island
Wonderfully rainy day
Swaying trees
Fire crackling
My favorite
I picked up Abram’s guitar
tuned it very oddly
(still haven’t found that tuning)
Laid down two guitars
and before thought
Made up the vocals
The ones you hear
Nicholas Iris came home
Wandering in
I played it for him
Now Iris is a mellow dude
But, he became crazy-eyed
and a wee bit frantic
He asked me
to make everyone leave
Right away
There were a lot of people visiting
Not entirely sure
what was happening
Everyone left to go to town
I went woods walking in the rain
When I returned
it was the dark blue light of dusk
A twinkle-eyed Nicholas
Waiting at the door
Joyously pulled me inside
High vaulted main room of the cabin
dim, star-lit with candles
the fireplace dancing
Iris had set a chair
in the center of the room
with the speakers spread wide
He handed me a pipe
and hit play .....
“Cryptic Scrolls
and the Northwind Knows ...”
He had played all the other instruments
Bass, talking drum, shakers, and piano
Nicholas Iris Wizardry
So good
Eventually, everyone returned
Abram came home
Heard the song
and gave me his guitar
I still have it today
Thankful
A good day in the Northland
Listen close in the ending ....
You can hear the fire crackling
and the wind rippling in the cedars
around the cabin

No Feathered Bed
Golden Thorn
Evening Dust
In Change We Trust
Everyone Who Knows
Shall Hold This Desert Rose
The Lonely Soul Who Won No Bet
The Holy One You Have Not Met
The Fisherman Fed With No Net
The Gift You Give You Get
The Blackbird In the Sunset
The Untrue Lover's Debt
And Salvation Yet
To Come
Weeping Breathes
Do Sparrows Cry
As I Sing From Egypt
Sphynx's Smile
To Escape the Tomb
And Our Blood Is the Nile
For a While
Calling On Eve
Wind On the Seven Seas
Sweet Queen Isis
On the Desert Breeze
Aho Deer Rich Feather
Wind In The Yellow Leaves
As This Child Knows
What the Wise Ones Believe
Hello There Fair Maiden
Wind Through Your Barley Blows
Jesus Loves Mary
Sure As the Nile Flows
And Everyone Who Knows
Shall Hold This Desert Rose
She Said
Why Are You So Far
I See Your Soul
Search the Stars
For What We Had
Is What We Are
And I Can See You
Through the Bars
Coyote Stole the Secret Song
And I've Been On His Tail
A Long Time
To Find
The Revealing Rhyme
Who's Prose Is Close To Home
Who's Rhythm's In My Bones
What Does It Mean
My Crypt Wed Brother
To Be Beyond Kind To Another
As If They're Your Infinite Lover
Could There Be One True
To Complete Thee
Who To Your Presence
Brings Freedom
