FEEDBACK BLOG: Giving it Away: How Free Music... →
derekwebb: Music matters. It’s so integral and pervasive in our culture that it almost feels invisible. It’s even hard to imagine walking into almost any store without hearing music overhead. Culture provides a constant soundtrack to our lives. So it’s no wonder there’s so much discussion and debate…

its silly once I think about it.. more
Its rainy and I miss my kids i miss having a family, its true.  But it illumninates other things too.  Like now when my 9 year old son is asking me over and over for things while I am cooking I just let the anoyance wash over me like a warm breeze and just have to hug him breath in his curly hair and I am so glad I have that; that he lets me hug him.  When my little girl writes on my journals or...

no this is aching
shining down on her, bathing the bed she is in the damp wrinkled sheets the arm not mine around her slowly moving with her sleeping breath. Moon is making me crazy.  I am walking in my neighborhood.  I am a cat or a fox or just some creepy guy in the dark tonight. gravel and the damp air the sound of trains and dogs.. looming clock towers and just up the street is the haunted house where I am...

Remember
Shhhh breath Remember being held your mouth slightly open my lips on your ear. Remember you loved that. The mountains of cruel intentions looming against you is far in the distance. Remember you have traveled far from that fissured dangerous place You are with me in this rockwalled and turtle strewn place. I hold you in my breath as you meander along the lizard squiggled paths while you watch...

Angry poem
Angry poem I have nothing to say other than goodbye.  I have a hard time when I am jerked about by my heart strings.  I fucking hate it.  I hate to go from planning a trip out of town together in the future a month from now discussing hotel rooms -  to we don’t need to be together all within 5 hours.  Its because she is lost.  I am not a gps for her soul.  I am sitting here holding my heart in my...

I delete her contacts regularly. so I dont see her name or wonder if she calls or emails. She tells me there are strange coincidences when I do. I leave it to her to make the next move. I made mine already moved her into my heart on the comfy chair red with the little white doiley so she can spill her coffee or tea or coke or whatever in the hell she is drinking its next to the tv she has...

I see a tree in your yard
You have a tree in your yard.  I see,  Tall and long remembered the kind of climbing tree that feeted kids straight to the freakin moon.  I know you could touch a cloud bottom up there get your finger wet and cold. You have a tree full of furry squirrels. I hear they are the kind that chitter and run out in frot of your car to commit some rodent dare then chew nightly at the electrical wires...

for my Angelina
Like a bad monkey playing with firecrackers.  lighter flicking burning teleo-affectiveness I feel you like a warm sadness. I watch you in your sisters as they break free of me as they wander back and forth across the endelss relm of growing up. But when its cold and I can see that its going to get warm and then stay warm and then be hot again Im thinking of you resting cool beneath the sandy...

Of what matters to the remnant tattered obsolescence next to clear glass, cool water I am a rusted tin can, river-full of sandy rocks and bits of past She Is a Milk bottle alone in the fridge a the beach house on the first week of May Long ago I like to imagine I was opened by a mom.  the baked beans eaten and the can thrown in the river by a bad little boy to rest on rocky shoals to oxidize in...

I am sorry about your father.
I am sorry about your father.  I assume because you are so nice that he must have been a great person. I wrote you a small poem.  It may not fit at all but I thought you may want it. Dads, when they are broken Are hard to find. They hide behind bed boards and bathroom doors. Counting lost socks. Wishing away tears they can only mumble about shaving one last time. They can wistfully look for...

emo poem of the week
She was very much alive this time last year She was blond and alive, she had ideas plans and pictures tonight they are all lain aside spilled out like a pencil box in various directions Left to you and I to pick up lay straight and sigh Who are we when we reach when we sit next or dial a phone waiting for her to pick up and say “hello” “What’s next”...

The Law of Unintended Virtue
Today a woman I worked with died. so I wanted to write about it.  but at first I wrote about myself… because I am so self centered. The law of unintended virtue.  If by fear or lack of self respect we are humble, lacking, stopping to smell the roses or stare fleetingly at rare birds or watch something unfold we see a lost distance, a measure of completeness. the fear becoming grief and...

Sako the Hamster Girl
Dear Ms. Kojima I thank you for your reply. It is the most beautiful email I have ever received. I was being snarky I was trying to be subtly cruel. I wanted you to suffer for some reason. But the more I wrote the more I saw the beauty of your art. I am telling you I was moved, moved passed passion to forgiveness even this far away. I was repaid with beauty. I am at a loss I will...

Troll stuff
sorry for being such an insensitive person.  I hope that eventually the pain gets more bearable.  I lost a daughter myself believe it or not. A stillborn baby really she was perfect in every way except she was dead.  She looked just like one of those zombies from a movie her skin all peeling her lips bright red.  her limbs floppy but when they bundled her up she looked like her big sister - only...

Captured by tenuous relationships
I was overcome with emotion the other night. Actually it was a Monday night. I had been manic creative and somewhat funny all day. I also ate cheese fries. I lost it. I was in a meeting. One of those special meetings for people whose lives have desintigrated in some fashion fallen into a form of unmanageably that forces intimacy. I sat in a chair with armrests smooth old wood gentle curves but...

Dying bird
dying birds are so poignent so lasting.  I saw a bird that had been hit today while I was on the road for work. I tried to run over it to finish it off to put it out of its misery to end my pain but I missed.  I saw it continue to try to get off the concrete with the rushing loud things but it just fluttered in the wash of vehicles and the last of its own life

On tracking listlesness
I was thinking about recovery, about how you go from one screwed up way of thinking to a better way.  I mean most of the things I do to make myself feel better I would rather not do.  Really, who wants to spend hours obsessing or drinking way to much or eating two boxes of ice cream and while watching Sex in the City in a perfect world all that would be ok but this is not Perfect land.  We are not...
