the fna show

Eamonn Cottrell

fna is an aural excursion through thought. it is an experiment in sound and idea. it is a terrible champion. listen at risk. fear to listen. crucify complacency.

You can buy me a coffee here.Please leave a review on Apple Podcasts!♥ oak and pine Treading lightly with foot folly between branches strewn abouton dampened turf in patches here and there in the mostly brownedtrail smeared with mud and leaves and the occasional pile of dog sh*t:there the slow trod of steps make barely an impression on the shattered landscape.Oak and pine and others lie strewn about - matchsticks splintered and rendered backto the earth in no easy way.They were torn and they will remain even so in theafterthought of that fleeting celebration of fire and wind and God.The way forward is slow and beautiful and painful. Splinters of the sun cutthrough trees overlooking the water and flashes from the waves blind in rhythm with the trail.Pummel down concrete runway into the dark and morbid pre-dawnof suburbia still sleeping and creeping inside itself behind shadows within itself.A mist hangs in the air, remnants of the night's black storm.Down and left and up and left and down and left and up and lap upon lap feeds the desire,fills up the fury as the body drains.A hooded phantom trudges up the sidewalk bent forward into the inevitability of the day ahead,the mile ahead and the ones now behind.He doesn't look up until I pass at a wide berth. Hoping always to prevent the fear of ambush,the primitive emotions so near the surface in these moments drawn out and stretched to slow the experience, the escape, the truth, the lie.With sludging my conscience ebbs within the guttural boundaries laid within the dim earth ahead, the placid, forgetful road fog covering thought, word and deed. Legs reaching onward, ever pulling upward and forward, somewhat wearily in meditation.I am a journey riding on the wind of my mistakes and launched into the narrow precipice that encapsulatesboth my blood and my pneuma.There are no footfalls in the sky, only breath; there are no regrets without the flickering they inhabit - self-fulfilling, self-sustaining miracle of doom.The dawn brings new dreams. Exhale. ♠ fna the fna show is an experiment in sound and idea recursively crucifying complacency since 2006.Episode photo by Annie Spratt on Unsplash.♣ Undertow fna is part of The Undertow Podcast Network.

You can buy me a coffee here.Please leave a review on Apple Podcasts!♥ Impetus I am the judge:un-bestowed, yet unrelenting in my nit-picky sentiment driven and riot fueled pronouncements.They don't go anywhere.They feed on my sanity. And I don't think that overstates anything.Feeling forward in lurches and groaning and mostly while glancing back.Small wonder that awareness even breaks through.No wonder sleeplessness pervades every dream.I wonder what it's like to breathe freely.I can carry weighty things, but should I relent?I can persevere, but to what end?I can talk. talk. talk. through green skies and heart beats. Where are we going to end up?When shadows jump from looming dusk-filled wonderment onto our backs.What's left to keep at bay if beyond this moment is a creeping disenchantment?This has never been about cuteness or popularity.Pulling scabs is the honest work of the beholder.Abbreviate.Help me to know what's right again.Alleviate.Bring me into light and out of this purge.Obliterate.Hurt me if you have to; I'm okay; I'll be okay.Crucify my complacency. It keeps me warm, but I'm dead here.Impetus, heal me.Deliverer, bind me.Into the fray and the fight and the hallway of open windows. ♠ fna the fna show is an experiment in sound and idea recursively crucifying complacency since 2006.Episode photo by Joshua Rawson-Harris on Unsplash.♣ Undertow fna is part of The Undertow Podcast Network.
