Familiar path followed under blanket of fog. Now venturing down into barren valley of a thousand steps toward forgotten years now remembering. Damp moisture of regret sticks to my nakedness while again descending into your embrace. You the Spartan warrior with sword drawn up in battle proudly rising like the magnificent sun swelling out of [...]
I know I write too much
of this crappy poetry
“Nature” “sadness” “you”
then “me” “me” “me” “me””me”
I write it for many reasons
most too hard to explain
but once I start my writing

Watching the water fall from the sky
Tears fall so freely I wonder why.
Why is it so hard to do
That which needs to be done.
I look in the mirror
I do not recognize what I see.
The dark circles and stringy hair
Cannot be that which is me.
The stress of life has overwhelmed
The joy has all but [...]
I remember when my first son was born it was an exciting and fearful time. Exciting just because it was our first child and fearful because of the challenge ahead in bringing him up the right way. We were both fairly young people in our twenties and both of us from fairly large families.

The term ’Sutra'refers to the scriptures and oral teachings of Buddha in his quest to enlighten students. The following song lyrics therefore have a strong philisphoical meaning.

When I looked into his face my life was forever changed. My life took a turn and for the best was rearranged. No longer thinking of myself but instead, Loving that little one in that hospital bed.
It seemed as though the world began to melt away. Everything else seemed to disappear that day. Anything [...]
