I want to help the ones I love,Yet know that now is not the time.This guilt is systematic ofAn old, outdated paradigm.The heart says “help mode activate!”The head, “there’s nothing you can do.”So in the end, I sit and waitUntil the right time to come through.                                                                               |           |                                                                              Written while listening to […]

It seems I was the lucky one(Or blessed, perhaps).  I’ve had some funThese last few days, but now I’m done…It’s back to work I go.Lift prayers for the ones who lostIt all this week.  Lament the costOf homes and jobs by tempests tossed,And lives by winds that blow.                                                                               |           |                                                                              Written while […]

For more than seven years, I playedEach day a favorite game.But now it’s over, I’m afraid,And truly it’s a shame.The ending of an era comesWith nobody to blame.And though this final hour numbs,I’ll keep the Keeper’s flame.                                                                               |           |                                                                              Written while listening to Source – A Sci Fi Ambient Journey – Atmospheric […]

It’s all too quiet here, I think.There’s nothing left to do but wait.I slowly take another drink,And contemplate my coming fate.Will everything turn out alright,Or will tomorrow bring our doom?I simply sigh, turn out the light,And leave behind an empty room.                                                                               |           |                                                                              Written while listening to Soultrip – Be Your Own […]

A day of chaos, not of peace.I thought the din would never cease.And yet, suspicions don’t decrease.The calm before the storm…Tomorrow may be quiet, too,With little of import to doBut wait until the storm blows though.We linger to transform…                                                                               |           |                                                                              Written while listening to BaliDacha Shamanic DJset 3 (2022), uploaded to […]

I’d love to claim I did a lot today…But really, that was simply not the way.            For while I did have fun with all            The games and family,            That’s all I did.  I cannot call            It productivity.There’s really nothing else that I can say.                                                                               |           |                                                                              Written while listening to Immersion | […]

There may be found, deep underground,A hidden place that may confoundThe wisest scholars all around.For secrets in this realm abound.Within this deep, where monsters keep,And dreadful creatures crawl and creepThroughout the shadows, brave men reapTheir treasures (though they don’t come cheap).                                                                               |           |                                                                              Written while listening to Ephemeral | Chillstep Mix (2021), […]

Away, in yet another townTo which I seldom go…I yearn to lay my spirit down,Where rest may dreams bestow.Indeed, the day has tarried long.My thoughts begin to slow.The siren song of sleep is strong;I gave up long ago.                                                                               |           |                                                                              Written while listening to Thurnin’s Menhir (2022), posted to YouTube by In […]

No rest or peace, it seems.  AgainI pack away my things, for whenI wake up, go to work and thenSpend time with family.I’m looking forward to these days,I must admit.  But I amazeMyself with how this current phaseOf life runs constantly.                                                                               |           |                                                                              Written while listening to Celebrating Magical Autumn EQUINOX 🍂 […]

Sometimes, within the darkness may be foundA sacred beauty, like a sovereign crowned.            For even light may blind the one            Who opens wide their eyes,            And stares at noon into the sun            In search of brighter skies.With contrast do the silhouettes abound.                                                                               |           |                                                                              Written while listening to Dimmu Borgir’s Eonian (2018).
