Misplaced Missive #105 – Heathen
You call me heathen,
Your devil, Your demon.
All your lessons
Finally seeped in,
And now you’re wary
Of what you’ve seen. Continue reading “Misplaced Missive #105 – Heathen”
REblog Wednesday: Where To Discover New Music x4
Confession time! I have an obsession. It includes, but is not limited to, the following: rock, metal, indie, alternative, pop punk, r&b, hard rock, hip hop, and reggaeton. My iTunes library currently exceeds 15 thousand songs and is ever growing. Much like my physical book library, it continues to expand out of control.
I have been called a hoarder more than once.
I may have a problem.
Luckily for youuuuuu, all this means is that I have developed many a way to discover new fuel to satisfy my addiction. Listed below is my list of a few music finding resources. Continue reading “REblog Wednesday: Where To Discover New Music x4”
Upcoming Albums to Look Out For
You should all know by now that I love music. 2017 has been pretty quiet for me on that front. Aside from discovering a couple more bands, I’ve only been to a few concerts this year, with one more definitely on the way and two more I’d like to make.
Luckily, some of my favorites are due to release albums in the near future. Here’s what my upcoming music listening slate will look like. Continue reading “Upcoming Albums to Look Out For”

Always lead to poor relations,

Chester Bennington and a Cheap-Feeling Writing Update
I was 12 when Hybrid Theory came out, and I remember listening to it on my walkman in my room until I knew all of the words to every song. I fondly remember it as the soundtrack to my life ages 12-13.
I’m not going to write a post about Chester Bennington. Jessie pretty well covered my own feelings on this news yesterday.

And My New Favorite German Word is… Fledermaus!
I miss studying language. I took French in middle/high school, German in college, and Arabic in college/grad school. The roots and origins of words has always fascinated me, and I will still look up words that catch my fancy. Continue reading “And My New Favorite German Word is… Fledermaus!”
Misplaced Missive #94 – Dreaming
I don’t know what the future holds –
Its mystery unfolds slow,
Each new choice leading you astray,
From the path you chose years ago,
From the ways of even yesterday.
Why is it so hard to follow your
American Dream, in the day? Continue reading “Misplaced Missive #94 – Dreaming”
