    • Thank you so much! It means the world to me. Truly. 💕

    • Very cool! Hey we like you via your writes! You have a lot going on in your head, so therefore you are not boring right? LOL
      I like how you search for what works for you, creativity wise. It reads well as a poem, and then the boom as a song.
      This is great stuff.

    • Truly enjoyed the read then when I reached the bottom and pushed play, it completely elevates your write. Honestly, I enjoy reading first and thinking about how it will sound when I push play
      at the bottom. It’s like the music aspect is desert after the meal/read lol
      Hope that makes sense.
      Keep killing it!

      • Thank you so much Adelphina! It does make sense yes! I really appreciate you 🙏🏻

      • Such kind words Crimsin 🙏🏻 this means the world to me. Thank you ❤️

    • “I’m the echo in a room that never speaks
      Nobody likes me
      Because there’s nobody like me
      I’m the secret even silence couldn’t keep.”

      Powerfully penned, Drieks. Excellent lyrics per usual my friend. That chorus above, next level wordplay! Once again your arrangement highlights your words. Appreciate you.

    • Oh, my god this is so good! I just played this so my wife could hear you again (and me) and it is just phenomenal! And what an incredible voice! Give her some love, girl. Plus the music and arrangement, everything is top notch!

    Lagunitas IPA

    Lagunitas IPA   Sitting in this IPA haze wondering why this winter moon is staring at me with its silver hue. I wish it would stop. Staring that is. So I can fade into my Lagunitas IPA and quietly walk the beach in Petaluna, Ca alone. Walking bare foot, sand laughing between my toes, laughing...

    A Dragon, Unicorn Fantasy

    A Dragon, Unicorn Fantasy     Once, long before horses roamed this earth, dragons and unicorns, some with tangerine coloring, lived and played, bringing magic and ethos to the land. It was also a time of ice, fire, and pain as humans began their descent from trees, where green leaves turned placid from the...

    • Unicorns, dragons and plant devas are still among us! But most humans have lost their belief in the magic that dwells all around us. Whenever you spend time in nature, you can feel and smell the Spirit of different plants (their devas) which guide you to their hidden healing properties. It’s the same with unicorns and dragons. We just have to rediscover them and to become aware of the spiritual world. Become like children… I’m serious about it.
      Awesome work, dear Curt!

  • Okay, I am stuck with this, but I am trying.

    Was born with eyes wide open
    To be prepared for the truth
    No one seemed to care or wanted to offend
    What had happened on the roof

    Time withholds memories in a box
    We crawl, then stand, and eventually walk
    As a rusty key enters an unforgiving lock
    Uttering words before learning to talk
