about

Conceptually/Musically -
The interquel to "Shift Gears Towards Antarctica! Ch. I" & "Shift Gears Towards Antarctica! Ch. II: Touching The Hailstones Of Soft-Texture".

lyrics

"But look! I see...I see the docks crafted from stone-white.
Awaiting for unfamiliar steps from the uninvited & unexpected.
To step & thaw its pristine coat; Skin of absent color.
Unaware of the galleon that already sets her coordinates to this grey terminus. i am the ghost on port & no one will tell...
No one will, Tell.

From a poised stance to a summon of new feet.
An interval in time. A new leaf.
I'm left with a sense of mission. A purpose of ancient.
It's back to square one.

I hear yet again the approaching of hailstones & the handshakes of the most patient of earthquakes. Well-timed.
To apprise me of a new chapter.
Fresh parchment imploring for a narrative.
Setting the spotlight on documents for monuments.
Set this all to widescreen once more.
Marvel at the pre-revealed paradise because i've dusted off the trademark in my eyes & i have arrived.
And i possess tidings!
i...has arrived."

To a place that uses snow for sand!
Shift these gears to where it all began!

i'll restore the name in the name of continuity.
i will nourish this and with this pen, i proceed.

the heart still beats...
