Name: Midnight Kiss
Duration: P00H03M47S
Description: This began as a short piece by the very talented Lisa Alletson. When I read the poem, I could hear the minutes shattering and before I knew it, I was making this into an Iambic Beats project. One thing I love about this song is that it is multifaceted. It's the only piece I've done so far that includes singing. I had a blast chopping up the melody into single syllables/notes.

lyrics

Upon your midnight kiss
Minutes shatter
Spilling seconds
Like stars on my skin
I am made
For a single
Quivering
Moment
Immortal
By your lips

about

Iambic Beats Los Angeles, California

We have so many titles. A few of mine are: scientist, poet, writer, singer, mom. I like to think I live at the intersection of music and words and always asking questions. A goddamn lovely place to be.
