In his 'Advice to the Young Poet,' William Carlos Williams says, 'All our efforts as writers and as men must be to release the enchained dragon within us.' I have found this inspiring throughout the course of my life. I nod to the saying in my song, 'Poised to Soar' -- you can find lyrics and more on http://www.benbruce.com, the official site for acoustic rock by singer and songwriter Ben Bruce.

Strike Twice

(Posted to Songs by Ben Oct 12, 07:25 AM)

… I may not have my hipster credentials
It’s essential that you know, I never will …

I may not have my guitar mastered
But if I wait until I do
Lightning may strike twice where I am standing
And I’ll never sing my songs for you

I may not have my hipster credentials
It’s essential that you know, I never will
Lightning may strike twice where I am standing
So here I am, I’m singing still

You may say my song has a simple progression
My confession is I wrote it purposefully that way
Lightning may strike twice where I am standing
and it’s a simple point that I’m trying to conve-e-ey.
