Read MoreWe circled at least three times, we were lost,
No leg room with music we loved to hate,
At this rate, we must make it at all cost,
On a cold, wet, cloudy day. We were late.
Always traveled in search for a sign of,
A peace of mind as substitutes for love,
Snared in the quest for life like a fine wine,
Never occupying the same space at one time.
Fancy free in comfortable attire,
Inconveniently posed, smiles are not liars,
A family photo that took years to take,
A twenty-eight-year delay worth the wait.
It is our first, last, and only picture,
To commemorate our time Together.
Grab the stem firmly,
Be careful of gentle hands,
There’s beauty with scars.
A Terza poem addressed to the character Achille in Derek Walcott’s Omeros

Read MoreI’ve been working on these tracks for quite some time and finally have the courage to share them with..well..YOU. I’m a bit (a lot) of a perfectionist, but I’m finally ready to let you feel them as they are.
Still trying to learn how to mix and master from YT and how to properly record vocals. Soon as I figure it out, you’ll get to hear what I hear when I listen to Event Horizon. However, until then….
i hope you enjoy it as is as much as I do ^^
i find them best enjoyed in a dimly lite room with lots of space to move.
Tell me what you think~
