Earth Altars by Laura Loescher (earthaltars.com)

A few months ago, I learned that my old bandmate Laura Loescher had a new project—creating earth altars. I was so mesmerized and inspired, I decided to reach out and ask if she would collaborate because they seem like the ideal visual metaphor for my song Perennial. Here are the lyrics—let me know if you agree.

After the rain turned the dry creek green
West of the lake, I saw ghosts in the trees
From the death of the smoke,
forest breath in the cold
Returning to clouds where I saw you
So many years ago

In memory, your dream was sown
So you will bloom, perennial

Now you’re calling me in transit to Ventura
Tuning into my infrequency
I feel the stardust shake into a pattern
Some kind of glyph I don’t know how to sing

In memory, your dream was sown
So you will bloom, perennial

In memory, the dream has grown
You knew me when, perennial

Singing through me on the phone
Inside your words, an undertone
The sound of you was all I needed
not to feel alone

In memory, your dream was sown
So you will bloom, perennial
In memory, the dream has grown
You knew me when, perennial
