Song Lyrics

For a Troubadour
This song is about my all-time favorite singer/songwriter. It’s my equivalent of “Dear Mr. Gable” (if you know, you know). Bonus points if you can guess who it is!

Winds of Change
INTRODUCTION I wrote this poem after a long stretch of years that changed me in ways I never expected. COVID, kidney disease, surgery, almost dying, all of it reshaped my body, my voice, and the way I move through the world. I’m not the same woman I was before 2022, and I don’t pretend to be.

COSMIC BLUES 1992 — by Vicki
Cosmic Blues 1992 is a memory film set to music; a blues reel pulled from a decade when San Francisco still hummed with old ghosts and new stories. Some moments never fade; they just wait for the right song to wake them. This piece carries the Palace glow, the Polk Street neon, the barefoot trolley ride, and the Native films we brought to the festival. It’s part memory, part music, part time capsule, a slow burn of truth, fog, and the kind of moments that still echo through me.

VERSE 1 Her lips taste like tears And pain you’ll never forget Always bringing back the years Of wasted words and regret

Arise
(Author's Note: I wrote this song about three years ago, when I was super sad and a little salty about life. Thankful to be past that stage. Passing it on in hopes that it resonates. Be encouraged, friends. --Laura)

Silk Grass
I hear the wind sing my name Feel the silk grass on my toes. Trees sway, untame- mountains smile… Welcome home Welcome home in style.
