March 31, 2008 - Once, upon a time ...

A chance encounter:
lost souls find themselves making
beautiful music.

March 30, 2008 - Tripping Across The Universe

all you need is love
(and some psychedelic drugs)
to make sweet music.

March 29, 2008

physical order
objects move in harmony
fluid dynamics

March 28, 2008

avoiding archons:
easy in theory, but yet
oh so difficult

March 27, 2008

brief conversations
can bring long reprocussions
if care's not taken.

March 26, 2008

anticipation;
months of building lead to this:
a day of release.

March 25, 2008

be careful around
negative electron charges
they'll polarize you.

March 24, 2008

It's hardest to break
the chains we've set for ourselves
but try, anyways.

March 23, 2008

quick conversations,
just made more complicated.
Screw you, T9Word!

March 22, 2008

Clay, wood, grain, sheep, ore:
essential ingredients
shall bring you success

March 21, 2008

it was a long shot
but worth the attempt, I guess
because it paid off.

March 20, 2008

last-minute choices
can hold the key to success
the hinge of months' work.

March 19, 2008

a package opened
a small thrill, hiding inside
a dream is fulfilled.

March 18, 2008

Frustration flickers
like flames, dancing on the soul
careful not to burn.

March 17, 2008

drunken revelry
without rhyme, nor reasoning
save that for later.

March 16, 2008 - Thoughts on my in-laws 30th wedding annivesary

A life together,
a journey still ongoing -
two souls joined as one

March 15, 2008 - Ode to a Cylon

no name, no call-sign
I am a Centurion
with no sense of self

March 14, 2008 - Happy pi day!

Transcendendant pi
irrational, essential;
key to the cosmos.

March 13, 2008

So many stories,
infinite variations.
so little stories.

March 12, 2008

a tuneless wonder,
banging out some harmonies
with good intentions

March 11, 2008

We be bad roosters,
Ravers defray hip icon.
exit, ye loud Jacks!

(I think this one needs a brief word of explanation - Deborah Linden recently wrote a song as part of her Monday's Music project that was the result of a game of Scrabble that she was playing with a friend of hers. I was playing Scrabble with her shortly after she wrote that song, and she challenged me to try to write a song using the same method. This is something of a first attempt in the general direction)

March 10, 2008

watching the dials spin,
opportunity promised
but not delivered.

March 9, 2008

early morning rise
not the best idea I've had.
I should be in bed.

March 8, 2008

this is pure kismet;
schedules and interests allow
a meeting of minds

March 7, 2008

torrential snowfall
covering the streets with white -
deadly blanketing.

March 6, 2008

there's no easy way
to avoid control dramas
except distancing

March 5, 2008 - Remix!

nothing is finished
you can say it differently
when you are unsure

March 4, 2008

unending routine
wears heavy on any heart
avoid anomie

March 3, 2008

hammer-ons, slides, pops
tones forming as the strings sing,
coming together.

March 2, 2008

a rudderless ship
hopes only to stay upright,
coasting downriver

March 1, 2008

Finishing touches
bring conflicting emotions
okay, now what next?
