Description

A humorous song (on a poem by Audrey Vaughan) about a bee that bashes against a window because it doesn't see the other open window. The guitar technique includes cross-string "kettle drum" effects.

You bumbling stupidity of buzzzzz
Striped furriness of fuzzzz
a dangleness of legs
noisily battering against the
unseen solidness of sky's deprivation

does freedom mean so much
that you buzz in fury
yet mean so little
that you scorn the other window's open aid

You bumbling stupidity of buzzzzzz
Striped furriness of fuzzzzz
be calm you furry roundness of anger
Lower frenzy's pitch
Let be gentle guided
to deep hummed content
sun-soaring unconfined
sun-soaring unconfined
