Indigenous Scribe 's Interests
General
We are in a time in history where the importance of individuality WITH A PURPOSE is paramount. The inalienable right to speak your piece and be heard RESPONSIBLY is the most important foundation along with the LOVE that must be expressed to your neighbors first and then OUTWARD. If you feel like the spirit of the world is in the midst of a HUGE CHANGE you are absolutely right. It is important for everyone to look away from the strip mall and back to the sky and away from the TV and back to the Forest and realize the beauty that is around us all and how we are destroying it. Ask yourself "Have I appreciated LIFE and CREATION today?" A valuable lesson from an old dog who has been around the block and made the mistakes so many of you can avoid. GO IN PEACE and HERE IS LOVING YOU!

Books
I read because I write. The Love of both consumes me.
Fall puffs up his lumberjack chest
Prepared to meet this coming cold
A wave of color washes over this morn
Painting my surroundings in peace and gold
Climb I will on this wondrous day
high atop a rainbow of faith unrolled
Sliding down the north face to a pot of hope
Contained in this heart of purest gold
A biting breeze, a whisp of smoke
Forced smiles from frozen face
I carry with me all I need
All I've purchased flies in space
I try to look up as I walk
Despite winds biting gnaw
taking in the hand that holds my life
enveloped in its cosmic laws
As much as I may fight what comes
It happens just the same
What's different is the way I greet
All others in this game
Heroes

I own a Sound and Lighting Company. I have done touring production for 25 years. I am a musician, a writer, an Actor and an artist. Oh and a funny fucker for the most part.
I hope to walk the dream
and dream the walk
placing rainbows in my handshake
and an apple in my eye
forest lost and un beknownst
this path from which I navigate
such roots and entwines
I will fantastically trip this giggle
and go forehead to fauna and press on.
Happiness will burst from hairdo lost
and the water will wash over me
as this simple phrase of "Minding the Creedo"
chimes BONG in this quiet house.
Coffee fills the air stimulating my senses Magik fills the air dreaming up instant fantasies Garlic fills the air leaving its taste on my tongue Incense fills the air relaxing, yet sensual Memories fill the air bringing a smile to my lips
Delicious aromas though now evaporated somehow, still linger....
