Dear Ms. 'Belladonna'...

You write some of the most sublime lyrics I've ever heard/read:

"So, if you’re going for the gold
Go where fortunes can’t be stole.."

It's all there, in two lines, the contrast between the earthly, crazed, soul-scarring lust for the 'yellow metal' and the more difficult, yet ultimately more rewarding spiritual search for the inner gold of redemption.

That 12STACS.STY Slow 12-String Guitar you used? An impeccable choice. Combined with your philosophical, yet simply comprehended lyrics, The Ghosts of Eldorado comes off with an almost mythical feel and tone.

I'd bet that the late, great movie director John Huston would have jumped at the chance to include your song in his now-classic film, "The Treasure of the Sierra Madre". It perfectly describes the subtext of the plot.

Ms. Evans, 'The Muse' is working through you like a charm smile !!!
