“Slip out through the window” composed and performed with banjo, concertina, and guitar by Sanford Ross Bender on March 29, 2026.

Slip out through the window,

Shift your unsettled mind,

Lift up your aching limbs,

Leave what holds you down behind.

Fragrant woods are beckoning,

Singing their soulful sound,

Dance beneath the gables,

As planet moons spin around.
