CALIFORNIA PRISON BLUES



I've had a crazy life. Really. My biological father, Kelly, and I met for the first time 2 years ago... He is currently doing some time... In the strangest way, we have grown closer because of his situation. We write letters but I never get a response in a timely fashion due to whatever restrictions their postal service enforces. Regardless, I've asked him to write me songs and he has. He has a great movement in his words and I get to throw their rhythms against any chords and resonate with them. It is a beautiful thing to me and I can't wait to show him what they've turned into. 

He wrote me back recently saying I should share our letters and our story more in depth calling it something to the effect of the "Weezy-anna, Kelly-fornia Connection" ...I'm not sure if I will or not, but the idea is neat. He hopes it would bring together more fathers and sons, but alas, I am just happy that we are together...


Anyway here is one in progress, Snapdragon.
