Story behind the song
I'm using an app called Poly 2 for the string sounds and drums. It's an interesting sequencer that puts everything in a circle rather than laid out linearly. The Ebow is present with an EHX Attack/Delay, Line 6 DL4, and distortion.
Lyrics
Often I meet, on walking from a door,
A flash of objects never seen before.
As known particulars come wheeling by,
They dart across a corner of the eye.
They flicker faster than a blue-tailed swift,
Or when dark follows dark in lightning rift.
They slip between the fingers of my sight,
I cannot put my glance upon them tight.
Sometimes the blood is privileged to guess
The things the eye or hand cannot possess.
--Theodore Roethke
