Still from Cat Of The Heavens film featuring Amanda Hull as 'Fidella'.

Since I was a bird I made a nest

I took my light from the stars lying in the snow

I drew my soul from the aquifer below

since I was a bird

All the garages are besieged by vines

ruthless Winter speaks to the worms with an icy tongue

The world and her moon are a theatre for you

so take a spider bite with good grace and spin in space

Cat of the heavens

strange harmony in the hearth light

a watcher in the woods - what are you thinking about?

Fold me into your little paws

I promise not to fly away

Open up, open up, open up

the doors of the sky

The world and her moon are a theatre for you

so take a spider bite with good grace and spin in space

Cat of the heavens

strange harmony in the hearth light

a watcher in the woods - what are you thinking about?

Fold me into your little paws

I promise not to fly away

Cat of the Heavens is the final piece for my album, which is called A CHILD'S RUMOUR. I have loved the adventure of creating this body of work. Each song is a real-time audio export of my personal circumstances over the past 5 years ‎intertwined with memories. Losing myself in creating these sounds is invaluable to being self-defined and expression in this field seems to be a vital component of my daily human life. Yet, ultimately, I am a woman wishing to become a bird.‎‎ :-)
