365 Days

On Six and Legacy
I remember six. What it was to go down to my grandfather's basement and sing at the top of my lungs while he played guitar. I remember chords and burning and the life and longing that only comes with a great song. I remember faces beaming and proud looks screaming "legacy".

Unhinged
I sit in silence for hours and days while the world passes by unhinged. I watch the clock dismantle and in haze because time no longer makes sense. Then I breathe and remember that today will be gone in an instant and tomorrow will either repeat the same or be glorious. Tonight I choose the … Continue reading Unhinged
Fear is a Terrible Driver
It's been a hard year. It seems like we've all said that so many times now, it's become an anecdote. The reasons for its sting are different for everyone.
