Do you think if I fill out this "About Me" I might cause less confusion? Perhaps my existence shall be a knife blade that slides effortlessly thru misunderstanding and bewilderment. To be honest the quotes below will give better insightful thought into my existence than this will.
You are warned.
My name is Byron; I grew up amid the beauty and grandeur of southern Utah. I have lived here in Salt Lake City for many years now. My favorite job I have had here has been working at the downtown public library. Books are in my blood. As well as magic and music. I am a versatile musician who plays and experiments with many instruments. Mainly I am a hand percussionist but I play the musical saw, melodeon, tin whistle, guitar, piano, and a few other odds and ends. I play in a few bands here in the valley. They should be the first four members on my top 8 just below. Please feel free to give them a listen. I practice Reiki and other healing activities. My wife Xochitl is the light that keeps my life in harmony. She is my other half. My lifetime goals seem to rise and fall but I am pretty sure I would like to be a gypsy.
that stone Buddha deserves
all the birdshit it gets,
I wave my skinny arms like
a tall flower in the wind

"Hurrah for anarchy! This is the happiest moment of my life."
~ George Engel's last words on the gallows
Like the little stream
Making its way
Through the mossy crevices,
I, too, quietly
Turn clear and transparent.
- Hakuin (1686-1768)
