about

Wendy 'n' the mop of redness
Folks around with them jim-jams
Broke my pince-neu and they took my bones away
I'm in me 'n' you can take a look in me 'n'
You better mind you're lyin' in the rain
Don't tell me your soul ain't all in itch with the same thing over again
Mountain ash of gold in the air and airy
Blowing like the gale off the waterline
Like silverfish 'n' yellows in glass jars
Took my hair and cut and curled it up and put it in jars
But still it ain't no day no more
And the moon's in and out
It's the black-green of the water in them jars you're lookin' in
And I'm all a-jingle
I can't find enough things to go home looking for
But I know I'd rather look and look and stare
Than look around look with nothin' but looks lookin' back at my own face in the mirror
Mountain ash is blowing like the gale off the waterline
It's blowing out to sea like silverfish in glasses of water
Black-green is all the air, like bottles of water
Took my hair and cut and curled it up and put it in jars
And still it ain't no day no more
And the moon's in and out
It's the black-green of the water in them jars you're looking in
It's like my hair looking back at me
The face on the mirror is a long ways away
And it feels good to know I can look so good
And know there's someone who'll look at me like I deserve to be looked at when I walk into the night
It feels like it's raining and you and me are in the same place at the same time
But it ain't no day no more
It ain't no day no more

Bomis Prendin Washington, D.C.

Bomis Prendin - The early years: We got together sometime in 1978, refugees from the liberal and other arts, five post- adolescent DC-area transplants from Richmond and Pittsburgh. Within a few weeks, we were free-styling noisily in a living room cluttered with guitars and amps, a wheezing antique organ, rewired plastic
musical toys, and a half-dozen analog effects. ... more
