About this Blog

This is not a music blog, it's really a poetry blog - at least, that's my intention right now. But there's some reasoning behind the musical reference. When I think of dissonant chords, I think of musical experiences of tension or discomfort that sometimes leave one longing for resolution (but that certainly make things more interesting)! So that is the general theme for the poetry I'll post (at least right now, I will probably change things up as time goes on.) I realize poetry is a pretty subjective experience, so if you don't like what I post, that's fine with me. Feel free to leave comments as you like. I do have to warn you that many of my posts may be spiritual or religious in nature, so if that isn't a topic you are comfortable reading about, you may want to make a virtual U-turn. I belong to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormon), but the views expressed here are mine alone. Thanks for reading, and I hope you enjoy the posts!

Spring Cleaning

Spring cleaning
Sometimes means
More than
Cleaning out a closet

Sometimes your
Mind needs a
Good de-junking as well.

Kick out the company that
Stays too long,
The broken furnishings and perspectives
You always bang your knee on
As you pass,
The dusty daydreams – outdated,
Immature, overly fictionalized

Till finally there’s
Peace and you can
Hear yourself think.

And admittedly, it’s a bit quiet
In a good way.
