Been writing to this work by @thomasjohncarlson between holiday traveling and celebration for "March of Crows" for the last couple of days. The mannequin wrapped in luxurious cloth makes me think of our modern society. So I ran with it. #marchofcrows #jerseycity #writeeveryday #writingprompt #songwriting #mannequin #sellyoursoul #lyrics #poetry #closingbell #cityhall #thykingdomcome #shayferjames #marchofcrows #challengeyourself
#marchofcrows letting my imagination steer this one completely. I'm thinking it may call for an old detective narrative over music. Would be a first for me. After all, this project is in part about pushing beyond my comfort zone. Let's do this. #jerseycity #shayferjames #brothel #cardgame #erie #writingprompt #writeeveryday #challengeyourself #imagination #camelcigarettes #avantgarde
After a few days of ye olde writers block. I am back writing for "March or Crows", nothing I'd written for this work by @andreamckenna19 felt right before tonight. Thanks to @plunkett11235813 for the creative nudge. I was, to say the least, frustrated. #marchofcrows #shayferjames #songwriter #songwriting #writeeveryday #lyrics #journal #jerseycity #collaborative #jerseycity #asongaday #poetry #writingprompt #writing #ghost #autobiography #earth #wreckage #shipwreck #andreamckenna #photooftheday #photographer
The song I'm writing today for "March of Crows" uses this work by @pandasuwann as a prompt. Staring at it, I thought of the first moments of consciousnesses within a womb of some sort. A fleeting moment during which you can still remember past lives and truthful purpose. I'm feeling rather romantic today, so I placed love within that frame of reference. #marchofcrows #shayferjames #songwriter #songwriting #writeeveryday #lyrics #journal #jerseycity #collaborative #jerseycity #asongaday #poetry #writingprompt #writing #reincarnation #rebirth #awakening #remember #love #obscure #destination #photographer #pandasuwann
Today's writing for "March of Crows" This photo by Eric Indin sent me digging for a stanza I wrote a while back about meeting a lover on the day the world ends. I expanded on it based on his image. Ultimately the woman predicts the apocalypse, and is correct. True love. #marchofcrows #shayferjames #songwriter #songwriting #writeeveryday #lyrics #journal #jerseycity #collaborative #jerseycity #asongaday #poetry #writingprompt #writing #apocalypse #endoftheworld #revalations #horses #truelove #love #parade #redflowers #weddingdress #lie #greysky #challengeyourself #artoncanvas #photooftheday #photographer (at Jersey City, New Jersey)
Today for the "March of Crows" project is A start to a song using this drawing by Taty Lopez as prompt. It is a Buddhist Mantra. When focusing on the concepts of compassion, wisdom, gratitude, etc, I thought of Aesop's fable about the lion with a thorn in it's paw and arrived here. #marchofcrows #shayferjames #tatylopez #buddha #aesop #lion #thorn #learn #teach #pray #fight #sculpture #erasure #foundobjects #challengeyourself #newmusic #collaborative #shayferjames #journal #lyrics #writeeveryday #JCArts

Didn't write for #marchofcrows yet today. But did finish 2 demo recordings for the songs I've written thus far.
