Hey, not really. That sounds funny though as you expect that from someone who plays guitar and writes poems. They kind of have remained two separate processes for some reason, so when I write a song I'm kind of trying to write around a chord progression or sequence or melodic hook and fitting words into the measure of that ? Anyway so my poetry if we can call it that is probably too prosaic for musical meanderings but perhaps there is some kind of marriage emerging out from the poetry and the music. Hope that doesn't sound too much up my own whatever Are you a writer yourself ? or a musician or both or none ?
