The singularly talented music(ians) scattered over the world, hot chocolate on cold days, the jazz club o' the century, a voice like fine wine, the vibrations of mandolin strings, the view from each and every window..

About me: I’m not yet cool enough to write about myself in third person.
I’m caught and held captive by full hearted, deep throated rhythms, and I’m no painted woman under a streetlight. I’ll walk the sidewalks of terrestrial stone with a spring and a smile, cause it’s alright boys….I’ll caress the strings of mandolin loves and play those
Sunsets. Effectually a purveyor of myth, starkness, in the deep down things, and admirer of fine notoriousness. Vision! Victory! Enough. Dancer to a private sound track that plays only in her head. In love with an epic King, a thundering voice. And genuinely interested in satisfaction with the pick that I currently use. For Life is no paragraph and the silence of your eyes is deeper than all roses. Ah! …..I’ll just sit back and take you in
With unbridled spirit, tallyho ye fearful, uncle johns band played the rising tide for a microphone without a face to stand in front of. All, through (Hopkins) immortal diamond.
Who I'd like to meet: “The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars..."
Hey Emily, just wanted to thank you for taking time out and listening to my music!
