Composed May 5th, 2017 while gazing across the valley. Experimental rhyme and meter herein. It seems to add a syncopation of sorts. Local rhyme and global rhyme. The latter walks as it goes. What effect does it have for you?

Listened to the recording; definitely made it crystalize more in my mind. "Pay the faith bill" was intriguing. Disciple(ine)?!
Have you ever thought of getting into water colors? Some of your more descriptive passages could be fun to abstract in that medium.
