First of all, let me say that i may not have any use for a blog. I'm not sure what purpose this will serve. It seems like a good way to get ideas into written form, defined and concrete, but i already do this with songwriting. I suppose this blog doesn't come with a pressure of syllables and rhymes so much as song lyrics.
And speaking of song lyrics, the title of this blog is but only a part of a verse from the song "A Long December" by the Counting Crows.
The smell of hospitals in winter
and the feelling that it's all a lot of oyesters, but no pearls.
And all at once you look across a crowded room
to see the way that light attaches to a girl
I like that image, the second one. It describes, to me, an ability to see beauty among the ordinary. In a 'crowded room' full of average, dull, run-of-the-mill, you look across a crowded room to really see something; the way that light attaches to a girl. Natural beauty highlighted by natural beauty.

Tal vez el propósito sea externar, poner afuera eso que con tus canciones dices pero te has guardado para vos... Poner tus escritos -con rima o sin ella- en este espacio, le da otro matiz, porque ahora lo presentas a nosotros, los que te leemos... porque con esto te expones...
Excelente que lo hayas hecho, sin pensarlo sólo hacerlo... luego irás descubriendo, definiendo para qué quieres este espacio y cómo quieres aprovecharlo. El primer paso -el de crear tu propio espacio- ya fue dado! Bien!!!
A wise, wise decision Mark. You've got so much to say, and you have the ability to see beyond the surface. To me, those are more than enough reasons for you to build and sustain this place. I find comfort in knowing people on this side of the street. Welcome neighbor.
