Tattered strings of scattered things I dreamed...

About Me

Listen to Curvy Straights Radio! And Check out my Soundclick page! The things we do are inconsequential to the people we are. I like the serenity among the trees, and the excitement of the city, taking photos, singing and playing guitar. I also like Italian horror and French sci-fi movies. Reading a treatise on philosophy by Edgar Allen Poe right now, called "Eureka". It's good - an odd philosophical dialogue - tinged with a light sarcasm - nonfiction, though introduced with a fictitious story presented as true.

Member Since: 10/18/2004
Band Website: curvystraights.com
Band Members: Matthew Lintzenich
Influences: trees, birds, squirrels
Sounds Like: A cry for freedom welling up from an eternity of oppressed selfhood. Flowers at war with machines. Great cities returning to nothing. Empty, overgrown parking lots. Relaxing in the warm breeze of the past, on a late afternoon years ago. The faces we used to know so well have become shadows of memories drifting in wispy fractured threads down long-untraveled corridors deep in the recesses of time. Waking up in the aftermath of some hazy dream of loss to an empty world. Happy things, like trees and the late afternoon sky over Sussex County.

More on meaninglessness...

If I were to say, "This sentence is a lie," it renders itself unfathomable, because it becomes neither a lie or the truth. It's a lie because it's not a lie. It's validity has been rendered null by th...

shadows

Time is langorous and weighty, building inverse mountains while I creep into the long slow fountain of living, a tiny insect martyred on the thick threads of carpet looming and leering down upon us. ...

no flowers

There's no flowers to photograph in the fall; they've all melted away like the feelings of another day.   But in the warm snow falling in latent drops of a cold afternoon melted past, we st...

When it's too late

Everything seems right until the right thing emerges from the undone, unsaid when it's too late.   In the complications of our always moving, everything is hard to find amidst the brambles of a...

in wisps

Feelings fall in wisps and disappear before they touch the earth. Thoughts alight on lips but turn in fear and run before their birth.

ode to the purple hue in the sky on my way to work

Good morning, purple sky, Soft relief to a weary eye,     From sleep I crawled to travel wisps     That lingered in the lips and fingers of     a memory ...
