Nomad: Original Music Composition by Ben Heine



Ben Heine's new music composition "Nomad". It's played in G#m, using a slightly different melody and bassline for each verse. In this track, Heine wanted to express nomadism, migration, travel, exotism. Listen to this compo on Soundcloud (here above) and YouTube (here below). Visit Ben Heine music website.

Things Grow Up To Die

Desert
.
By Roy Brammell

Sage brush! Mile after mile,
Quiet in the sun, and shimmering;
Ever in the sun, ever shimmering!
The long low mountains
Seem to crouch beneath the heat,
And the earth, dried to a powder,
Is strewn with choked brown grass.
Ants burrow in the ground
And live on things that perish here.
Stream beds are dry, beaten paths
Of rabbits and sage coyotes
That for keen thirst run the full length
Of each ravine, and fall at last
As did one here whose bones lie scattered,
White as snow beneath the sun.
God, the waste! the quivering waste!
Where things grow up to die!
