About Me



"Society everywhere is in conspiracy against the manhood of every one its members. Society is a joint-stock company in which the members agree for the better securing of his bread to each shareholder, to surrender the liberty and culture of the eater. The virtue in most request is conformity. Self-reliance is its aversion. It loves not realities and creators, but names and customs."
-Ralph Waldo Emerson

My name's Matthew.

Every time I end up taking a shot at describing myself I find myself revising it the next time I look at it. I'm a constantly evolving person trying to keep my head up in this world one way or the other. I create music, expand my mind, and just live the life I've come to enjoy.

Flesh Storm - Slayer

Redneck - Lamb of God

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Terence McKenna

There is something for our culture in psychedelics and there is definitely something for the individual. In a way culture is like software - it's the operating system in the local area. You download being a Witoto tribesman or a Hong Kong stockbroker, and then behaviors are prescribed; but naive people tend to believe these operating systems are reality. They're not reality - they're just something you learn as you grow up in a certain time and place. Psychedelics seem to dissolve cultural conditioning - this is one of the things that makes them such political dynamite. Because the business of political systems is to convince you of the local operating system - convince you it was sent from God and is beyond critique. When in fact, it's just a bunch of rules, fellow monkeys pushed together over time to make things easier for the alpha males. Psychedelics dissolve these cultural assumptions, whatever they may be, and for the first time you sort of get to look at the naked animal and think about where you might want to go personally and as a politically, potent member of the society." November 16, 1946 – April 3, 2000

People are strange...when you’re a stranger

...faces look ugly, when you're alone.    Well-well-welly, man oh man oh man. What am I doing typing another blog? Boredom, creative insight, ventilation? Possibly a combination of some...

The Divine Purpose - not for the dull

    As I type this I am in the beginning stages of what I perceive as my own personal insomnia - waking up in the afternoon, going to bed at about close to 4 or 5 o'clock in the morning...

long I’ve awaited summer’s return

    Only to think about it and go, "Hah - this is cool."We all surely take things for granted. Sometimes it just doesn't sink in as quick as your anticipation leaves you thinking, all t...

Believing in Yourself

I was assigned to write a short story for my advanced lit. class. I came up with it in a few weeks, an idea stemming off another, an one evening out in my backyard with my notebook and a little improv...

what a year this has been

I do not write about a lot of things, unless I am obliged. Or, of course, if it is influenced by my need to momentarily channel anger, frustration, or on the flip-side, my happiness or creativity that...
