About Me

My chronicles are esoterically manifested to those who've perceived and contemplated me, and laid wide open to those who share their lives with me. A current incarnation of disinclined mirth - an acceptance of fate, versus seeking ones destiny, prevails. Music becomes the vessel, words - the purposeful void therein; for it is due to the intrinsic emptiness within that we are able to benefit that of which the cup provides. It is not the door which leads us to that which we seek; rather, the abstracted emptiness of the doorway itself. Endeared by all, considered by none. Revered, yet relinquished. An intemperate equilibrium. The choices we make as the Mark of Cain bears down arduously.

My Interests

Gettin' down with the funk and soul, and singin' some blues! Writing poetry, prose, and sonnets; political discourse, spy novels, writing music, playing guitar & bass. Counter-order and the dissolution of preconceived values & ideas. The classic struggle between contention and contentment, the overcoming of the hard and strong through the endurance of the soft and yielding; vortexes, maelstroms, penumbras. That temperate, solitary void which exists between the dark and the light.......

Legacy

"I've got this feeling in my heart that's reflected through my eyes. Even with my eyes closed, I still feel scared. I hope one day to open them to more than my own sighs." Now the day I'd read those w...

Beneath The Surface of Contagion

Beneath the surface the cancer lies; and with a smile, I've deceived your eyes. Upon the surface the bandage placed; the skin of the apple thus ready to taste. Despite such a dressing, the nethe...

Within The Splendor

I was left then in your wake; scattered memories, not mistakes. A life removed within us. And I'd not since understand that which you needed when you'd held my hand. Now time surrend...

What will history reflect as to the comprehension of the peoples of a great nation?
