Poetry. Honest writing.
movies in my head.
lovers, rebels, geniuses, and fools.
"Read widely of others experiences in thought and action -
stretch to others even though it hurts and strains and
would be more comfortable to snuggle back in the
comforting cotton-wool of blissful ignorance! Hurl
yourself at goals above your head and bear the
lacerations that come when you slip and make a fool
of yourself. Try always, as long as you have breath
in your body, to take the hard way, the Spartan way
- and work, work, work to build yourself into a rich,
continually evolving entity!"
-Sylvia Plath, Journals

Stay together now, is a rad tune. If you need a drummer to lay down the drum track I'm open to it. -The Lead singer Now if i can just get my ex-GF to hear it... now that's going to be a task. Have a great Saturday!)
Jinah... it's been waaay too long :) Just thought I'd let you know I'm going to be in LA again this summer, and I'll be jobless, just doing music. SO, let's get some shows together and/or do some open mics... OR do some collab'in... Your music sounds wonderful and I can't wait to hang this summer. Keep on rocking and I'll actually come to some shows now that I'm 21 and have free time. I'll see you soon! -Mike
