A Jazz-Fusion instrumental- something of a cross between the style of Weather Report and Steely Dan. I hope you enjoy it. Ken Poma: Composition, Instruments, Production. C.2022 Earworm Publishing. All rights reserved.

PAST AND FUTURE DAYS – KEN POMA See what’s all around you, take your time, Take in what’s before you, don’t be kind. The world was here before you, it takes its time, It will be beyond you, that’s not a crime. Past and future day, melt into a haze, Sliding on a scale, A weight that can’t be weighed. Life is always changing, it can’t be chained, Do you know another option? Don’t be afraid. The sun comes up behind you, it takes its time, The sun sets down before you, there is no sign. Past and future days, building a tall maze, Tearing down the trail, leaving no trace. Who says it’s right or wrong? Won’t find it in a song, We’ll have to build each day again. Who knows what we could have been? Who knows if we have the time? Who knows if we could make things right? Who knows why the day turns into the night? Past and future days, melt into a haze, Can’t see through the clouds, And why would you ever want to? There’s something in the night air, the smell of rain, Drops steaming on the pavement, there is no pain. Birds singing in the morning, the Earth’s refrain, Don’t hold on too tightly, let it slip away. Past and future days, melting in the haze, Can tell no right or wrong, only in song. Last is first one day, maybe not today, Hope they find its place again. See what’s all around you, take your time. It will be here beyond you. Ken Poma: Composition, Lyrics, Performance, Production.

I sat down in front of the piano with no preconceived ideas, apart from thinking of Keith Jarrett and Paul Bley, and hit the record button. I hope it moves you. Ken Poma: Spontaneous composition, Production. C.2022 Earworm Publishing. All rights reserved.

Selection from The Unbridled Suite. I called the original recording / video of this guitar piece "Adagio in C," but decided it was just a bit too fast for adagio, and the open B string was 10-15 cents flat, which drove me crazy by the 3rd listen. They could open a school just for classic / Spanish guitar tuning in hostile weather conditions. Thank you so much for listening, and thank you to the folks who commented on the original video.

Jazz-Fusion instrumental. This track was fun to put together. Tried to get an Afro-Cuban big band type of sound. I hope you enjoy it. Ken Poma: Composition, Performance, Production. C.2022 Earworm Publishing. All rights reserved.

BAD INTENT They’re doing wrong, but they think it’s clever, When the trust is gone, it’s gone forever, The way they act, it doesn’t seem to matter, As long as it gets them up the ladder. Convinced of no light at the end of the tunnel, Lies, rage, unchecked greed poured into a funnel, Concentrated corruption, built up brick by brick, Building a monument for the truly sick. They deny the goodness that abounds, They worship the light of golden crowns, Instead of sorrow, they double down, Mayhem and destruction in their wake. Bad intent, like ripples going on forever, An executioner pulling all the levers, No going back to the ties that were severed, The bad sleep well, rested for their endeavor. They have the pulpit, the money, and the power, Cover their rank façade with an ivory tower, Praising pride and fear for pride and fear’s own sake, Do what thou wilt, they think that there’s no burning lake. They deny the goodness that abounds, They worship the light of golden crowns, Instead of sorrow, they double down, Destruction for destruction’s sake. Bad intent when good men do nothing. Bad intent, wake up, say something. Ken Poma: Composition, Lyrics, Performance, Production. C.2022 Earworm Publishing. All rights reserved.

From The Unbridled Suite. "Andantino Espressivo" is an adequate description of my somewhat fluid performance, but I hope you like it. Ken Poma: Composition, Performance, Production. C.2022 Earworm Publishing. All rights reserved.
