April 20th, The Quiet Inheritance…
April 20th does not speak.
It enters the room
like someone carrying a secret
too heavy for language.No greetings.
No warnings.
Just a presence,
dense, deliberate,
a stone placed gently
on the month’s trembling chest.This is the day
that keeps itself in silence,
not out of fear,
not out o…Read More![Profile Photo]()

Damian this song showed a lot of what I was feeling in my teens. It came out in 81′ but I heard it around 87′ when I thought I was truly in love. Haha nope hormones talking.

Torn
It’s hard to turn away
Even the thought takes effort
Knowing that this..,
This thing between you and I

I know my faults
My shortcomings
I know that…
Still, I cannot leaveThis thing is like a bungie cord
I drop…Read More -

The push pull in this is intense. Sometimes there’s a vast ocean between should and do. And as we know, I never learned to make bubbles, so swimming isn’t much of an option. Brilliantly written

What Isn’t Heard
there’s a vastness…
you can’t even fathom…
a universe you can’t imagine…
within the realm of silencestories untold
realities unexpected
contemplative reflection
pain unspokeneverything locked inside a vacuum
where the wall of it…
can hold someone hostage
a victim of their own thoughtsyou can’t…Read More

Yes, I can hear that silence. It’s the silence of a mother whose son has been cut down in a gang war or a war in a foreign country. Or the anguish of needing formula for our kids but no money to buy it. It’s the search for decent work, but not enough education to get it. Its the cries of children hiding under desk when the gunman came to school.…Read More

I didn’t have a choice on writing this. It’s been much on my mind of late. That deafening, heart-rending silence unheard from outside. Thank you for hearing it with me, Curt

Wasn’t this song the James Bond 007 theme song. “For Your Eyes Only” was also the name of a Bond movie in the 80’s I believe. Great song. Sheena Easton also did “U Got The Look” as a duet with Prince.
