I thought I would post a bit more of my own poetry. Let me know what you think. It's not as eccentric as some of my previous stuff, but we'll see.

There is a poet I've been reading for class. His name is Arthur Sze, and I absolutely love his work. It's at first glance a collection of random thoughts and images, but there are numerous recurring words and throughlines that really capture the metaphor of Quipu, the name of his book, and an Incan knot language. Anyway, I though I'd share a ( Read more... )

I'm just sitting in rehearsal at the moment, mind everywhere and nowhere. Rosabella is the female lead, in case you wonder about the title. I'm glad we were able to do fun, different, things and that Charlie was able to eventually make it. Sorry I was being a poor enough host to doze off in the middle of Scrubs, but I was quite tired. Alright, ( Read more... )

Strange night it is. Let life flow by for now. Here's another poem I wrote. Things to think about? It contains a lot of specific music references, a bit of setting, and a quirky little narrative. And the form of line means something if LJ can render it right.

They could barely hook the worm at the end
Of his line. He lions in the morning,

Sucking breath into breath with his last pack
Of smokes. The inland heat still asleep
In the ground. Nothing but a low moan,
A little excerpt from a book of poetry I've been reading. Hoodlum Birds by Eugene Gloria, very enjoyable. ( Read more... )

I hope you don't hold it against me, Sarah, that I'm encroaching on your titling. And yes, I've been listening to a lot of The Killers ( Read more... )

For those of you I have not yet wished a happy New Year, consider yourselves officially greeted in such form. For those of you I did see over the course of New Year's Eve, I sincerely hope you enjoyed our party and I thank you for coming ( Read more... )

I'm doing a very poor job at advertising myself, but I will give you more than a few hours notice this time around. Tomorrow (that's Friday) at 7:30 in WMB 119 there is a musical theatre showcase in which I'm taking part. It's all of the duets and ensemble numbers we've put together, plus a few solos from my musical theatre techniques class. I ( Read more... )

Just so you know, one the groups I'm in is performing today for two hours at the Sheldon. If you have time drop by whenever (its not a formal concert) between 5 and 7. It's Chamber Singers and we're doing some really beautiful Christmas music, including the O Magnum Mysteriums we did in high school. So check it out if you can. That is all.
