The Mystery In the Man Not Solved - Last Words By Men On Last Chances to Show

This is the last new work I will likely post, but it is truth enough to merit no more. This is a story of life.

The Mystery In the Man Not Solved - Last Words By Men On Last Chances to Show belongs to the following groups:

Complex Simplicity of Art, All Things Poetic, Artistic, Philosophical, End Times, Flash Fiction, Self as Other, Short stories - Spherical Scriptings, Something To Say, Underground USA, United States and WMG

They were twins.

One music, one lyrics. When composing fun, playing gigs together. Listeners felt little as they performed united, but always each twin had solos.

Individually, they confused the audience: The music alone was soothing and kind, but the clearly heard lyrics were grating, dismal, and careless towards the crowd.

It never failed, that after shows the listeners were torn cleanly, loving or despising, for in the middle was simply white noise. Invisible.

Often the twins had to move on, those who had heard them perform injured – fighting violently over whether the experience was pure wonder or plagued wounding.

Neither wanted to cause any strife, so even when music wished to stay where a home had been built, he could not forsake lyrics.

They always played together… always traveling on. They were music fine and lyric foul. They were twins. They could not maintain alone, even a stable solo.

    you know… insider info sounds so freegin arrogant…
    I had asked Gordon if he could break his paragraphs up so me and my ADD could stay focused. That’s the insider info… unless you had already broken them up in which case…
    nevermind :)

    You, my Postulation of Everything, are spot on clever… brutally so (in the good way.

    Honestly, you should have read that manifesto… I have ADD too so I understand, but I was almost proud of myself for it. It’s an easy read. No pressure of course.

    Both twins can stay; new audiences find old souls. Old souls grow, with or without their wings. Stay.

    Well man, its interestingly done, but honestly something must be lost on me, lol. All the other people about seem to know something I’m missing, but I’m used to that.
    Thanks for offering me that hosting position earlier, though I has to this girl named Jo to ask what it even was.
    So where are you going?

    This reminds me of a poem by Poe entitled: The Fall of the House of Usher. The two siblings were connected, one with a physical illness and one with a mental one. When the both of them died, so did the house [the house crumbled].

    A work I know well, but would never have compared myself to. Thank you for the flattery, but most of all for simply taking the time to read.
