Letter to Erin 20150907

In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

Well, you have to be somewhat of an actor in order to sing well.  But I don't know if what I do is acting.  The need for emotional connection is too important, plus there's too much reality involved to make it fiction.  MashaAllah.  Art is life, and life is art.  Which is yet another reason why I try to write music slowly.  Besides my being a lazy slob.

I'm sorry but I don't feel very talkative today.  The air conditioner crisis gave me the sniffles, compounded by rain last night, so I had to drain my sinus cavity yet again.  ** sniffle**  Since my singing improved, I became more sensitive to climate change.  If you're planning to manipulate me into doing more travel than I want to, it might backfire on you.  You might make me too sick to work, or dead.  No, I'm not going to allow you all to travel alone.  This is because I love you, and I need you.
