I am in a pretty cool graduate class if I do say so myself. It’s called “Spectral and Sublime: The Gothic Tradition,” which is offering me the chance to read fun things like Dracula, Jane Eyre, Carmilla, and many more stories (a lot of them dealing with vampires that are my favorite). While the books… [Read more…]

Today, while I was cleaning out my closet a bit, I came across several drawings that I didn’t even remember making. Now, I think that I have progressed some since then. However, I find it interesting to look back at old stuff and be entertained, amazed, and even saddened (if it’s not exactly what you… [Read more…]

Yes, contrary to popular belief, I have a heart. And ’tis the time of year for Christmas music to be playing on the radio and shopping centers that surround the nation. However, the music that I love is not generally what we hear out there in the general world because they have to play the… [Read more…]

So I’m not usually political on here… however, I saw this today and had to share with those who frequent my blog. The video above is a commercial in Australia that is trying to fight marriage discrimination, and I agree it is discrimination that two people in love can’t get married because they are in… [Read more…]

My heart’s desire is not Accessible by mortal means or Schemes of the mind. So I bury my visage to Summon some ethereal force to Bargain. But no one comes. Maybe, I am too pure for the Pitt’s Hounds to want to embrace the Warmth of my flesh. Or maybe they Sense my worth as… [Read more…]

As a couple of weeks ago, I have had several songs of late that have been the unintentional musical themes of my life. Now, I’m not saying that they fit completely because they really don’t. However, sometimes the music is just fun to sing along loudly to in my car. This week, there’s a little… [Read more…]

While I am relatively new to the Muppets (I didn’t watch them as a kid), I have had the pleasure of getting to know them over the past few years. And mainly, I have begun to know them through song. While there are many songs that are fun and entertaining, I have come to find… [Read more…]

Can a soul bleed? Can a part of ourselves Fall into the oblivious nature of Our inner desires. Are we anything but Corrupt? Can we feel? Can we adjust our Contemplating to make allowance for the Temperate equality that cuts through the Darkness of our own understanding? We are nothing…. we cannot be unless the… [Read more…]

So, I think it’s fair that I more than dislike Taylor Swift because she’s just awful. That being said, I know that there are people out there who ardently admire and think that she’s god’s gift to the world of music. Aside from being one more of those auto-tuned, country-star crossover artists, one of her… [Read more…]

Even into the early double-digits of my age, I have loved Sarah McLachlan’s music because it touches my inner spirit somehow. Now, I’m not talking just the sad song during the commercial about animal adoption and some such. I have loved her and still love her music as she continues to produce it. Her dulcet… [Read more…]
