When I first hooked up my Internet it was strictly for music. Reading belonged to the libraries. Now like most I have given in to this method, and I hope for the right reasons.
I would like to say that all the works below were written mostly around the same time. Written in a frame of mind that narrowed in on themes I highly regarded, and yet explored with the various literal styles that came.
I would like to say that whichever work of mine you may read here is more often just one form of the other. You may get everything I mean to communicate in one piece. You may not. I will not say what the main theme or subject is, as I wrote it to speak for itself. However, I will say that my approach in imaging and writing about my subjects are done in a style I most admire by lyrical musicians. The impersonal interpreter or that of the prophet. Bands like Prodigy (in a sonic underground sceneway), Pumkins, Rage, P.E. did this to me.
I mean to have these written pieces done as if they are being communicated for the moment by anyone anywhere as long as they are aware of some kind of conflict within or around them. Kind of like what I got from my favourite musicians with music that was not primarily about them. Musicians who where quite impersonal about themselves as people, but very personal about their choice of conflicts within their music. With opening verses that attacked “you” that spoke about “you” and told you the things that you were thinking but hadn’t articulated yet. And as a young person music which can wake you up to self-awareness and yet - sound groovy - is music of revolutionary effects. And this is the effect which touched me where mere moral school teaching can never dream. There is no force involved, well depending on how groovy the song is. But the art of the musician's expression to the listener's reflection of it almost brings two minds into one. And heals with some sort of hope.
This is the magic I believe of the impersonal musical poet or social prophet.
I wish for the tone for most of the work under the POETRY section, of both politics and religion to be written like they are being spoken by a ghost voice or written as a mural. The social and self-conscious individual aware of their world.
