I Am.. EXTRACTING SOUND...



 Playing the Drums

Playing the drums feels like a main line to the soul,

 A formidable antidote, an awesome purging of all angst.                                                                                                                
 The quest to consume the silence with crashing waves of vibration.          

So I commenced to beat out confusion, rage, forgiveness on tin 
                                                                                                                                                                   

Redemption, validation came with every knock,  on those skins                                                                                
Tapping, pounding rolling, resounding                                                                                                       
Drilling, banging, clashing  clanging,                                                                                                          
 Seeking no record, accolade nor audience                                                                                                                    
 Just a  passenger of rhythmic teleportation



























Pianoforte for the Everyday

So it was finally my turn at the piano keys.                                                                               What was left of this inalienable gift so foolishly ignored?                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   
A series of once familiar scales and a handful of tunes I'd retained from youth.                        Sheet music has never interested me, even though I can read & locate the notes.                                                                       

Then, I  picked up a few lessons from a gifted artist, my somebody special..
I chose to exercise my musical muscle memory, masquerading as a forgotten talent                  through  spontaneous expression.  

When the left hand chords and the right hand melodies intersect with precision,                      The infinite elegance of freedom and tranquility ascend. 

Music has an astonishing  kind of energy 

Instruments hold a specific type of power. 

 The creative pulse yields incredible moments that hallmark generations.
