a wrinkling twinkle 

 

 

the older it gets the more rubbish is wrote 

so its parents and friends push it off in a boat

and call on the waves to keep it afloat

til it dreams up a wrinkling twinkle

and it steadies itself at the helm

it steadies itself at the helm.

 

a wrinkling twinkle’s a nonchalant thought

that spins off a wheel to be subtly caught

by the tendrils of time that emerge from a rhyme

to winkle a twinkle right out of the wrinkle

the wrinkle back into the realm,

the wrinkle back into the realm.

 

but now that the twinkle is out on its own

the waves become wild and the dreamer is thrown

from the front and the back of the in and the out

til it calls out aloud to the tide

oh thank you so much for the ride

yes thank you so much for the ride.

 

then things are unusually still

becalmed on a watery hill

it looks for a seed of a nonchalant thought

to pop up ahead in a faraway port

where twinkles and wrinkles can never be bought

and it steadies itself at the helm

it steadies itself at the helm.

the nobody way

out of nowhere comes the light

why need to know from where or to

it comes from you

nowhere is you

the spark of your heart

travelling through

a zillion ways a zillion days

people are shouting

yays and nays

nobody knowing why darkness is blowing, 

but flow-bodies, crow-bodies

silently working and they're

not in the news 

or on screens to confuse 

or to force you to choose 

from the reds or the blues 

in a game we all lose.

nobody has light

nobody is right

nobody is real

nobody can feel

no one has the cure

the way to endure

nobody is pure it’s okay 

not knowing the nobody way

mad hatter

and what does it matter said the mad hatter
wearing a whimsical smile
i always have said we all end up dead
we just hang around here for a while

Technological singularity

Aware oh why oh shit

🎶 Introducing: The How Would I Know Show 🎶

Hello friends,

As some of you may know, my journey with music has been anything but ordinary. Back in the 70s, I released an album called ‘So What If I’m Standing in Apricot Jam?’ It was a collection of songs that reflected the unpredictable path I’d walked in life. Little did I know, that album would be rediscovered decades later, pulling me back into the world of music with a renewed purpose.

Today, I’m ready to introduce you to a new moment: The How Would I Know Show. 

Not just a show but a journey, a storytelling experience through music, life, and the lessons gathered along the way.

So The How Would I Know Show is about more than music—it’s about connecting on a deeper level, about the power of love, bits of Eastern philosophy, and some simple truths that life has to offer.

I hope you can join me on this new adventure. I’ll be sharing stories from the road, the studio, and the veggie patch. Expect quirky tunes, heartfelt lyrics, and a few surprises along the way and who knows, maybe we’ll discover some hidden gems together.

Stay tuned, and I’ll see you with love and music,

Howard
