Looking Forward

I feel more like myself today than I have in a while
The burdens of the near past are shedding
the coils of of the dead and dry flaking away
What kept me from sleeping just a few days back
Now barely passes in my head
melting shame

The heart of my inner self is waking now
After being near death for so long
Comatose filtering in animation once again
The leisure of looking around me once more
instead of only down so not to miss
The quiet beat

Opportunity with neon sign saying here! here!
lighting up in green, reds, and blues
The electricity is catching in my bones
The time of today, the lessons of past
melding into something more like
the me

Kind words will unlock an iron door - Turkish Proverb

This past weekend was very busy musically speaking. Friday night, Mike and I opened for one my friend’s bands at Rev. It was a very big crowd and the feedback was great! It was our first time playing out together as a duo and hopefully this will be a continuing trend. Saturday was amazing. The speakers at Not in Our Name were very moving and the food was phenomenal.... like usual. Anyway, this weekend turned out a new song as well, one that I think is playing out worthy. I think I'll try to get it down and play it next week at Rev. Russ and I have been talking about putting something together sometime soon for a show at Rev in the near future, and Jon and I have been brainstorming an Alison Krauss/Nickel Creek cover type band with Barefoot. Lots of irons in the pot; so keep visiting and I'll keep updating! Much music and love!
