Only This Is Coming; and a poem for the month. (Patreon)
Content
Hello my loves.
Round-up and photos and setlist of this past week’s livestream concert in Boston is coming. So is a soon-time for next $10+ webchat. I am very, very much on my back foot here right now. I beg your patience.
This is thing to cover a move. Paid patrons only.
I do this sort of emergency thing once in a blue moon; I like yo I think I’ve earned it. If I haven’t; release me, or yourselves. It’s fine.
To that:
1) only this is coming
2) do note dstrb at eny time
3) ash’s awful july
4) the whānau
5) shall we start a speakeasy?
…we have all we need.
6) grandmother
7) a reprieve, named Mr. Dingles, pronouns they/them
…their body is a doorway.
8) where angels fear to tread
9) ash school / Viking Hall miscellaneous
10) the devil is in the details
11) an errand into the past in comforting kiwi underwear
12) nobody’s really sure about this one
13) east bridgewater cemetery
14) the point of it all
15) anthony
16) feminist as fuck, and my sisters
17) and: true home base.
Lastly,
A poem for all of you.
Writtten this morning as a text to one of my oldest true love friends, and then…I realized it was not a text, it was a poem. Maybe there’s no difference.
….
I’m working very hard right now.
Not yet there for the how, or why, or what is next.
Just please trust me.
Upcoming livestream & patron-only live concert info - with a small studio audience in Woodstock - is coming early next week. If you’re local, hold Aug 27th, evening.
Love and gratitude to you all goes well beyond words and photos from a difficult moment.
Tell me how you’re doing. I’ll be able to read your comments late at night, and from the bathroom.
From well under it,
Your poet in love and bubble wrap,
Amanda
------THE STUFF I SAY AT THE END OF THE POST---------
Some of this is a little outdated. I need to do some work on it. But:
1. If you are a patron and new to my work, don’t forget your patronage allows you access to ALL of my patreon releases to date. HERE is the link to download my latest big solo record, “There Will Be No Intermission”, and HERE is a link to download the PDF of the art/essay book that goes with it.
2. If you’re a patron reading this post via an email notification, please click through to comment on this post. at the very least, if you’ve read it, indicate that by using the heart symbol. that's always nice for me to see, so i know who's reading.
3. You can see All the Things (over 150 of them) I’ve made so far on patreon…though this page badly needs updating
