Staring at the Sun (u2 cover)
Staring at the Sun. I want to take a minute and make a comment that bares little relation to the cover song. I am heartened and amazed by the creative bunch of Poets, Musicians, Painters, Photographers, and all around Artists that I get to discover every single day here on WordPress. It is as if I am glancing into the souls of strangers. Sometimes I imagine everyone in the whole world have a psyche that screams out. I would never know it. […]
a little catching up to do
I wanted to drop everybody a note to explain where I have been and what has been going on.. I have been very busy with music, a lot of it practice.

Terrified is a good description. A doctor had me leave my house […]
Old Vinyl
