Silverado Days

Youth is a moment in time. A past monument that only exists in a saturated velocity of intrepid memories. Crazy times await in the future of what is to come. There is rarely an experience worth remembrance that doesn't feature brief breathes of embarrassment. Then they get replaced like the tide washing upon the sand. The words lose all meaning when they are said. Shot out like cannons into a dust bowl, we don't intend to reciprocate our thoughts into a fixed point in time. Without intention or maybe even a lack of correspondence to the repercussions of our youth that is tender than ever.

 

"Cause even though we don't mean what we say, we throw our words like bombs and hand grenades."

 

The Beulah tune always ignites all those trap door memories. Those times you'll never forget, but you wish you could. That heavy feeling that erupts wishing you could disappear into the mountains, change your identity and live the rest of this brief light slowly burning out. Then there are those arms always out stretched with snug warmth making escape only a dream.

Liar

There are times in life where nothing seems to be going your way. That is when you brain decides to lie to itself. Does that make you a liar? Or is it just our way of deciphering the faults that can so often overwhelm. These are just decisions that make up our existence. Nothing matters when it's all just pretend. There is such comfort in falsity that it can blanket the sensations that are real. Just take a step back an realize that all these little tremors are minor clogs in a uniquely ambivalent machine. Finding ways to avoid the tremor is the key. Mother nature has a kind way of allowing the mixed up images and making them a simple disposition. So remember to always create and never destroy. And always remember that if something seems too real to be true, close your eyes and forget about it all for a little while.

 

We Dance

"Check that expiration date man, it's later than you think."

We all just prance around this life in a bitter misunderstanding as to what to feel and do. There is no true presence of mind to call our own. It is only a tiny light that shines with little direction. Enjoyment comes in places where you least expect them, in a smile or a phrase or a melody. There is no timetable as to when you will expire. So enjoy yourself while you can, because I won't be there to lift you.  

 "First time you see and then you'll be five times forever and you'll never get lost."
