about

mi jo ala e luka tu wan. taso mi ken pali e ijo mute pona kepeken luka tu ni.

A vague telling of a true story of how I got to this whole "do-everything-perfect" situation. A version with crisper vocals and a cleaner performance and the guitar backup I had in mind may come one day, but maybe not. I think having it like this is the right move.

lyrics

tenpo open la
