Baby Benny Wildfire

A musical visual linguistic inferno cultivated in the Niagara Escarpment. Many hear the fire crackling, but few ever smell it's smoke, or see it in action, for it is so very tiny, and only occurs in the crevasses.

Mondnacht

ultimatefreedom:

Es war, als hätt der Himmel, 

Die erde still geküsst

Dass sie im Blütenschimmer, 

Von ihm nun traümen müss

Die Luft ging durch die Felder,

Die Ähren wogten sacht.

Es rauschten leis die Wälder,

So sternklar war die Nacht.

Und meine Seele spannte

Weit ihre Flügel aus,

Flog durch die stillen Lande,

Als flöge sie nach Haus

A poem Morgan serenades me with.

You snipe so steady
You snub so snide
So ripe and ready
To diminish and deride!
You’re so quick to condescend
My opinionated friend
All you deface all you defend
Is just a borderline
Just a borderline
Another borderline
Just a borderline

Gardening at twilight…itchy times…

You want me to give you permission to write your truth with honesty and heart because doing so scares the living crap out of you. I’m here not only to give you permission, but also to say that you must. There is no other way.

DEAR SUGAR, The Rumpus Advice Column #82: The God Of Doing It Anyway - The Rumpus.net I have been reading Dear Sugar columns on and off the entire day now and I’ve cried every time. Highly recommended. (via 1000reasonsnottostartmakingart)

70s music was so much better and deeper than todays music i hate my generation :-(

Dear lord that’s such a bunch of crap.  There’s a lot of great music being made these days! Don’t be a snob about music- unless that’s the only way you get your jollies.  If it is you deserve to be so dependent on the idea.  This is the kind of thinking that is so tragic about this generation; the, ‘this generation sucks and the past was way better,’ thinking.  I can assure you they were saying the same thing about the 20’s and 30’s in the 70’s.  That’s just the way that mentality is- it’s called nostalgia.  As great as it is in some instances it can make you delusional to the people and things that are with and around you at this present time.  (End of speech)

Musicality in its simplest form has very little to do with ability but rather is an awareness.  Thoughts?

At first I was unsure and kind of bummed about Josh Tillman leaving Fleet Foxes for his own project due to my selfish fan-boy tendencies.  However these songs are too bad-ass to not like, and he seems to have blossomed in his writing and butt shaking.

Just woke up from this dream where this cray-fish was crawling around my room, and then it like transformed into my brother.  When he morphed into human form he still had this big shell on his back (except it was more like a sea turtle shell) and he had been trying to rip it off.  He said it started growing 20 years ago.  Then he started to freestyle a song to the tune of Crown of Love by Arcade Fire.
