Recording out of #GarageBand on #iphone isn't too bad. #creativity #inspiration recorded a simple 8-bar loop in about 5 minutes. I could get used to this. #music #tritone

March 23: Rain

Raindrops freefall from the sky, picking their targets arbitrarily and deliberately. Sometimes, the bullets are softer than feathers, other times, they are more forceful than slaps across the face.
