Hey everybody thanks for coming by! As you can see I have created a nice place to listen to some of my tunes and read a bit about me and my band. My 2007 release "Then Is In The Past" is available through the player up on top. I will be releasing my next CD "Chaos Theory" sometime this spring/summer. I'll let everyone know once I do.

One of my poems........
ENNUI
I came home from work usually.
There on the portal floor
Lay a few pieces of my wife's personality.
She had been falling apart lately
So I rushed over to examine the few loose features.
Her smiles and hugs after love
Her mouse like bites when she eats
The glassy astral stare in her eyes.
Enamoured and half insane
I pocketed the pieces and ran
Room to room sucking in details
As I passed; calling her name frantically
I followed a trail of her identity.
I found a fork in the kitchen with
Her name stuck on the end,
Some notes of her singing
Lingered in the air of the hall,
The color of her hair was wiped on the walls,
I found her independent nature in an
Envelope in the washroom with no stamp
And no return address.
I found her in the bathroom.
She had removed her eyes
Which were soaking in the sink
While she nosed the mirror and combed her transparent hair.
"What's wrong?" I queried.
"I'm sick of quick biscuits,
Eggs don't stick to the pan,
The bathroom bowl is always bright,
My cakes are always rising right
And I don't want any part of murdered vegetables!"
Had I said something wrong?
Puzzled, I turned to her.
She said, "I'm bored,"
And merged with the mirror.
Give my friends from Miami "Shufly" A listen!!!!
