The song is written. It's not as "frivolous" as I thought it would be.
It's nearer to a traditional folk ballad. A story.
Teaser:
He was just another hobo
In his raggle-taggle way
Sitting on the corner
On a raggle-taggle day
Clothes all torn and dirty
With no shoes upon his feet
Asking for a little help
On the raggle-taggle street

Thank you everyone who's pledged so far and thanks again to @amarand for suggesting this.
It's been a while since I wrote a new song because I have been concentrating on recording so this has been a lovely opportunity to do something new.
I need to vote more than once 😁 this is fun, good on ya
@stueytheround
Stuey songs. ❤️
@stueytheround although i LOVE a good protest song, i don't think they're great fundraisers usually. :)
@stueytheround lighthearted fun, for sure! I think this place is just like that--sure we talk about serious stuff, but we have fun too!
Prompts:
The unbearable loveliness of being a CoSoNaut.
Logging in to CoSo, is like seeing a candle in a window on a dark night.
"Keeping CoSo Weird" is not optional.
I have 14,893 followers on the bird, and 100 very good friends on CoSo.
I too, have made, and am making friends on CoSo. And one very special confidant, who I know for a fact I will never meet IRL, but is very special, nevertheless.
I hope newbies come to realize that CoSo is akin to an olive branch - leave the darkness, it’s safe to let the light shine - community. Where talk isn’t cheap; trolls aren’t tolerated; we offer support & aid, and follow through; we care. Human beings w/ heart & soul reside here. 💕
Yes.
We know the burdens.
Come to CoSo, put down your hands,
We will hold up the sky.
I won't fall on you, not on our watch.
🙏🏽
@corlin
Yes!
Good, real friends. 100%
@corlin Thanks for the prompts but I only just noticed them and have written the song already.
I'm going to tell you all a story.
However, the interesting part is that it *is* about light in the darkness!!
@stueytheround Beautiful lyrics ❤️
@Fiikus_goddess Thank you xx
Lighthearted fun it is!
We currently stand at $350 of a $700 target.
Keep sending me your pledges.
I'm going to start on the writing process today.
Remember that a MINIMUM of 50% of all pledges goes to #CosoLifeSupport
