lyrics

I will wear my lover’s coat
On all the great land masses and
Over all the mighty oceans.
I will write ‘Love’ as a girdle round the globe.
A is for the Astronaut I love.
I will run so fast and fly so swiftly,
My lover on cloud nine will read
The yellow-light tracery of my body.
‘L’ I will Lip-smudge across America,
‘O’ will Overflow Africa
‘V’ Verily will fit Asia
‘E’ will spread Eagle across Australia
And when I get home to Europe
I will speak with the blackbird in my hedge,
"Did you read what I wrote my love, love, love;
Did you spell out ‘Love’ ?"

Unrecorded Beam
by Billie Bottle & The Multiple

Unrecorded Beam is beautifully conceived, performed and recorded. I am fortunate indeed to have connection with the album, in two improvisations responding to Billie and the Multiple on their flight. Kate Westbrook
