Ouija Board Poetry

The chords for "The Cat in the Space Between Things" are set and there's no way they will change without it becoming something else so that part is finished.  Changing the key on the Space Between Things part didn't change the relationship between the chords.  For guitar, it's the same chords, they're just in a different place.

Note on physics:  the intervals between notes are not the same and thus the keys are not precisely the same and will have different characters.  It's not so mathematical that and E can go to an F by adding one to everything.  I do not feel a difference in what comes from what I play with it now in F so I'm scratching this concern.  It may get rockier easier but that may be stoner fantasy too as my memory of the other is more introspective.

My first thought is how it plays for guitar and I'm satisfied that smokes.  There's no fluffin', bluffin' or fallin' down.

The words, the words ...

Coming up with words means put the guitar down and hang over the chords from the synth until words come into my head.  This is one of the Necromancer parts as there are no words in my head and then there are words in my head.  I know there will be but right now I have no idea what they are.  So this is Ouija Board Poetry as you tell me how anyone knew that nice couple across the street was breeding rabbits in their basement.  Yet, next thing you know, the SWAT team comes and rabbits all over the place.

So, that's how I write ... watch for the rabbits.
