*🦄📖✨STORYLINES✨📖🦄*

(written ’round late december 2013)
(while living in dorothy’s basement)
(princeton NJ)

(one of the many “song seeds” i planted during my first ever “robotrip” that month)

(it was magical and terrifying all at once!)

(i took down 2 bottles of tuss over the course of 3 hours)
(got all the information from ‘sean damkani’)
(who learned about it while he spent 3 months in jail)

(did tons of internet research before trying it that night)

(recorded in ‘spring 2014’ as opening track of “the negro leagues” seasonal song cycle)
(recorded @ “the mounts motel”)
