Love is the Opposite of Fear

Faux Jean is a singing cowboy from Duluth, Minn. Each week he adds a new song to an evolving record series over on Bandcamp and writes about it here. “From the Mixed Up Files of Mr. Matthew T. Schindler” is somewhere between a fake newsletter and a faux press release for the eponymous wabi-sabi private label album series that continues to evolve over there. Thanks for checking it out.

Faux Loves,

Here endeth Volume Ten of “From the Mixed Up Files of Mr. Matthew T. Schindler,” the album series that accompanies this newsletter. Today’s final song addition to the album can be listened to in the player below for free:

Here be the poetry associated with this jam:

There was a man named Jesus
and Jesus there was a man
And he was the grown-ass kind
He never had a five year plan
He never had a five year plan
Jesus / Jesus / Jesus / Jesus

Jesus was a man
He never had a five year plan
He fell in love with the concept of love
and now you can too!

Love / Love
Love / Love it's the opposite of fear
Love / Love it's the opposite of fear
Jesus / Jesus / Jesus / Jesus
Jeez

Next Tuesday is Christmas Eve and I’m going to begin Volume Eleven of these “Mixed Up Files” at that time.

Today’s lesson: Be gentle and kind with everyone you encounter!

I remain your humble servant,

OX&C,

Faux Jean

p.s. I let my fact checkers have the week off last week if anyone was wondering.

I had a teacher once tell me I had a syrupy smile. Thanks Mr. Thurston.
