Sweetwater's poetic artistry being recorded for CD for release with a composer collaborator. Inspired by Elton John, his song Sartorial Eloquence, Tabu, and Encounter. "Showing a violinist, overcome with passion, breaking off his performance to embrace his female accompanist. The advertisement, with its romantic imagery and tagline "Tabu, the forbidden fragrance."





Tabu the Ghost of Tabor's Mistress

sunday clothes
became your saturday
night confession we locked
eyes in the aisle and like baby doe
I froze

caught in
your headlights
on high beam my motive
fixated to the side of the
peace scarf I touched it with
firm intention

scandalized
by lavender neon
and designer beer
we would both outlive
the label you idolized tabu
wafting in the rearview dawn

inhaling embrace
pushing the manila
envelope you came at
me again opening up the
tabloid news oh the look
on my face

leather
and silver studs
circled around my waist
the ghost of tabor's mistress
named the game rich we mined the
foretold weather sunday clothes became
your saturday night confession we locked
eyes in the aisle and like baby doe I froze

While the lyrics are repetitious, I really like the music… Very emotional.

I think everyone has been struck by the "deer in the headlights" syndrome a time or two. There's just something about some personalities that are magnetic that one is attracted to when they enter the room.

You have some very elegant wordsmithing going on here, rich in simile. A very charming style. But you know all that. Thoroughly enjoyable. Wish I knew how to embed music.
