The Answer To My Song |
I sang a silent tune
Offering up the embers
Of a long forgotten dream
If I'm honest
I miss the things I've seen.
I've let the shards go deep
Pressing in against my bones
Drawing blood from all my mem...

Carolina Wildflowers |
I went to South Carolina yesterday, on a road trip with a good friend. I guess we were trying to relive our college days. Mile by mile, we talked, laughed, and listened to road-mix CD's.

The Horseman |

For days
From the south ridge.
You spend evenings
Underneath that shady rock
Where I first made camp
On this big spread;
Cowboy heaven
If there ever was one.
Water and grasslan...

The Bartender |
The Bartender :
.
I traded out my bedroom
For a bar
Kissed the tender
On the liPs
And asked if she
Would drive my car
Yes, I've had enough
To drink
And yes,
I went too far
But this is
What we wanted...

The Fissure |
The Fissure:
.
I stooped down
Having walked a while
On the rock face
To see a line traced

Why am I here?
Why are so many people
Hurting in other
Parts of the world?
What can I do to help?
What if we could do anyth...
