Book Arts Folk Songs

I have often proclaimed that the book arts will become the primary form of artistic expression in the later twenty-first century. When that happens I believe that there will be a general desire among the practitioners to have book arts folk songs to sing while working. Since it takes a long time for songs to become known and accepted as folk songs I realized I better start writing them now. In the long-standing tradition of folk songs, I have based all these book arts folk songs on previously written popular songs.
