…then I would at least have a chance at songwriting. Alas, my brain is just not wired to comprehend the aesthetics of word placement, usage, rhythm and everything else poetic that my rationally oriented nature prevents me from appreciating. 🙁

I dare you to share your lack of poetitude with us! :o) I bet you’ve got the words and that you just need to find your personal rhythm.
There once was a guy named R. Eaton,
who left Woodland and all of it’s creton,
he started a blog,
and moved from the smog,
and now he’ll dig Seattle’s fine eatin’

Bad song-writing didn’t stop Duran Duran
Or these guys: http://www.ebaumsworld.com/videos/outofsight.html
You guys are all SO supportive. I think I’d also have a better chance at songwriting if I could actually think of something to write a song about. All feeling and nowhere to direct it I suppose. Ha, Duran Duran wrote a theme song to James Bond (…and you say they couldn’t write, what better measure is there than that, I mean they’re in the same club as Paul McCartney and A-ha.)
My attempts to write song lyrics are almost comical they are so bad. Think about how a scientific journal article would sound if you tried to put it to music… that about captures character of my efforts.
j preciado:::: I’m thrilled that you found my blog. I’ve missed you and you’ve come up several times in conversation recently. Each time I kick myself for letting so much time go by with no word. I’ll be emailing you. By the way, that limmerick is BETTER than the songs that I’ve attempted to write.
