.194

it used to be special and exciting
now it's dulled and drives me mad.
evolution ceased,
i've tired of it's atmosphere;
the way it makes me sweat-
the way it entices me
with ready-to-pluck ripe beauty-
reminding me
of who i am and where i've been
and why i feel so undesirable.
everybody can see-
not everybody can feel-
not everybody will understand-
everybody can't know.
i'm alone -
with you-
together-
by myself.
i'm hidden, embarrassed.
Tired, i call it night.

Ty Taylor : Suspicious Minds
(with Aron & Matt of Magnolia Memoir)

My main man, Ty Taylor is always performing somewhere, with or without Vintage Trouble. It is what he was born to do, and all the extra-curricular work keeps him in fighting shape for his main job as lead singer for VT. In a bit of fulltimepoet.com symmetry, my friends Matt and Aron from magnolia memoir play drums and guitar respectively in this video clip backing Ty's righteous version of Suspicious Minds.
This performance took place at Thousand Oaks Civic Arts Plaza in Thousand Oaks, CA on Jan 15, 2011.
