The Cycle of the Seasons
January 24, 2011 – 3:53 pm
Well that was a lot of words! I have completed the lyrics to the “4 Seasons.” They may not be perfect, but nothing ever is… The seasons became more about relationships as a continuous cycle and yet even as a cycle I can see it as a straight line over the course of a romantic [...]
Four Seasons, not Vivaldi
December 6, 2010 – 4:24 pm
I am working on an SSAA Choir Piece for the Nordic Voices – Chicago, this is my first commissioned piece that I have ever had… I have some mixed feelings about it. On one hand, I really am grateful for the opportunity to share my choir pieces with an audience. On the other hand, I [...]
You Owe Me {Failed Thought}
October 13, 2010 – 2:13 pm
It’s October. Pinktober… I used to think of Fall and Halloween, and upcoming Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Day 6: {after too long} Failed Poems Work
September 26, 2010 – 7:26 pm
It was nice to get back into the studio again after so many months. So far I am pleased with the work that I have done. I have evolved in my process a little, which only brings me closer to the clinical side of this endeavor. In order to keep the plexi from getting finger [...]
Sweetness and Sour
September 3, 2010 – 11:31 am
I haven’t forgotten the sweetness
or the reason we were together
too many things have been taken away
its as if all of creation has become corrupt
with no choice of escaping and it comes in 5 days

The sadness grips me in a different way each time,
Just like my contentment
Or my commitment
