NEW SONG: Scheherazade Sits

This one has its origins in a line that just came unbidden to my mind one evening: "High in her tower of stone, Scheherazade sits." Somehow, the image accompanying the line told me that this was long after the Arabian Nights but she was trapped, somehow. So what was she doing? Why was she trapped? And then another image appeared, that of the other character in the song.

And the rest of it came from there.

MP3 here.

This is what it's all about

Taken from the [livejournal.com profile] redsox community:


After Martinez's bullpen session, which he described as even better than his first, some spectators appealed to him to sign autographs by asking him to do it for the children.

"They used the kids to bait me," he said. "So I fooled them."

Rather than sign for the adults, Martinez gathered the children and escorted them beyond the security ropes to a practice field, where he sat and chatted with them and gave them autographs.
