Half Moon

Half Moon (The Turnaround)  -  Pan Thistle, 2017

A faceprint on the Delta drive
electric eyes don't lie
the Sat-One beam pulled the pundits in
and the game begins at
Comanet.you

Lava bubbles stain the ice
they fight until the end
Almarbots scan the waves for
the raw code to break in
his Live.home

Eyes in the wall, relentless stare
a lizard tongue, prowling ticket tout
they snake-dance all night in a pool of milk and blood
green scales and fairy tails
will drag him to the lair
over there, for a dare

The shadows on the screen
plot against the light in his life
and those few moments in time
all the things worth waiting for

The Turnaround

Flesh without bones - The Turnaround
Clock without hands - The Turnaround
Shape without form - The Turnaround
Thought word and deed - The Turnaround
The Turnaround - when the chips are down
The Turnaround - with a bunch of clowns, yeah
The Turnaround - when he hit the ground
The Turnaround - he's the talk of the town, now
The Turnaround - with a bunch of clowns, yeah
The Turnaround - when the chips go down
The Turnaround

PARTHENOGENESIS 4 July 2023 Parthenogenesis was born in the fall of 1978, but the story begins at a disco-club in Ilioupolis, Kanaria Sq. about a year earlier. At the time, it was normal practice for club owners to have one or more live rock nights during the week as the disco boys and girls went dancing on Fridays and Saturdays. It was on one of those week nights that I first met Alberto and George. Their group was called 'Airborne' and mine was 'Crystal Faces'. We had a good chat over a few beers and about a month later, I decided to leave 'Crystal Faces' and join 'Airborne'. For almost a year, we played mostly covers of popular rock songs. We also tried to write some prog-rock stuff of our own, we were all big 'Pink Floyd' fans, but it was not really working. Then, in the summer of 1978, after a falling out with the guitarist of the group, the three remaining members Alberto Levis, George Makridis, and myself (then, Takis Polychronopoulos...

Losing Control Again

Losing Control Again  -  Pan Thistle, 2025 Losing my mind, losing my soul Ain't no way out of this man made hole Go round in circles, off the deep end Losing control again   Envelope face, envelope noise Rolling and shaking broken toys A Justice failed their own polygraph test Losing control again   And I would if you let me But you won't forget me   Smiling dictator, warfare state Men of the hour, iniquity gains Gaping loopholes in ethical traits I'm losing control again   Testing my faith, a deal with pain Tables are turned, I'm losing anyway A campaign of fear, sponsored by the state Losing control again   And I would if you let me But you won't forget me There! They are selling again The same Patent Fake concern They drive me round the bend   Weathering vessel caught in a storm - with no end We are unable to hold a course - Captain Where? Lightning stabs out of dark clouds - boiling overhead And I'm losing control again   Fine Nereides ...
