Session musicians on their own hould not have to go somewhere else in their sonic voyages. Guitarland from Tim Pierce, for instance, feels close to what he does on his session work for a multitude of players. You shouldn't see this as a pejorative, he probably prefers to do something within these sounds, which gave him a name in the community. Still, I'm shocked he didn't call any of his famous collaborators to lend him their services, yet I assume he wished to do something that is completely his own. I mean, session musicians are always a bunch the business people are familiar with, whereas the public doesn't really notice them. This is their great paradox – they can make or break a song, but they don't reap the benefits of that.

“…Olvastam, hogy Jeffrey Dahmer apja azt mondta, hogy fiatalabb korában neki is voltak megkérdőjelezhető gondolatai. Az emberek rögtön ráugrottak a témára és bizton állították, hogy vannak még testek, amik felfedezésre várnak. Ezúttal, az idősebb Dahmertől. Gyűlölöm, hogy el kell rontsam, de az igazság az, hogy elrettentően sok embernek vannak megkérdőjelezhető gondolatai. A gondolatok semmik. Egy légüres térben lebegő fantázia sosem ártott senkinek. Ha nem tudjuk, hogy az előttünk álló személy fejében mi jár, szinte mintha nem is létezne. Márpedig nem tudni. Rengeteg a bűncselekmény, szerte a világon és minden amit látunk az emberek azon csekély százalékának a műve, akik hallgattak is a csábítgató hangokra a fejükben. Képzeld el, hogy mennyien élhetnek hasonló természetű gondolatokkal, sőt talán küzdenek is velük, nap mint nap. Meglepődnél, ha tudnád, hány potenciális Dahmer mellett sétálsz el munkába menet. Viszont, egy különösen felborult elme kell ahhoz, hogy a hasonló gondolatait ténylegesen életre keltse és tettekké formálja. Abban a pillanatban, mikor rálépsz arra az útra, akár csak egy lábbal, vége. Ismerem az emberi természetet és nem félek tőle. Ez is csak egy másik döntés, pont mint az, hogy mit egyél vacsorára. A legtöbbünknek nem ember lesz.”

April 25, 2024: from Moon for Aisha, Aracelis Girmay

from Moon for Aisha Aracelis Girmay

— for Kamilah Aisha Moon, with a line after Cornelius Eady’s ''Gratitude''

Dear Aisha, I mean to be writing you a birthday letter, though it’s not September, the winter already nearing, the bareness of trees, their weightlessness, their gestures — grace or grief. The windows of buildings all shining early, lit with light, & I am only ten & riding all of my horses home, still sisterless, wanting sisters.

You do not know me yet. In fact, we are years away from that life. But I am thankful for some inexplicable thing, let’s call it “freedom,” or “night,” the terror & glee of being outside late, after dark, my mother’s voice shouting for me beneath stars which, I learned in school, are suddenly not so different from the small salt of fathers, & gratitude for that, & for the red house of your mother’s blood, & then, you, all nearly grown, all long-legged laughter, already knowing all the songs & all the dances, not my friend, yet, but, somehow — Out There.

In one version of our lives, it is November. Through a window I see one of our elders is a black eye of a woman, is a thinker, & magnificent. [...] It is always her birthday. She has always lived to tell a part of the story of the world, what happened here.

If not a moon, what can we bring this woman who walks ahead? For whom you were named, & whose name has been added to by you whose language crowns the dark field of what has been hushed, of what is beautiful & black, & blue.

--

Read the full poem here.

Written to the author's friend, poet Kamilah Aisha Moon, who died in 2021. Read one of her essays: It's Not The Load That Breaks You Down; It's The Way You Carry It.
