Description

Reflections- a ponderance on a moment in time, an individual, group, or place. The memories, which once seemingly mundane, are now, not as much pined for, as when the recognition of their refusal to hand over the past to erasure is realized. So they lay, rooted in the fiber of one’s soul until the next thought, sound, smell, or song awakens their restless sleep.

It is within this framework that I have recorded these songs. Nothing too profound should be read into their meaning, which are merely images, to rouse each listener to produce feelings of their own. As images, one is plainly expressed, the other implied. One is assuming while the other is reticent; one is fledgling, the other experienced; one is pain, the other is beauty. One is reality, the other a delicate dance between that to which we may feel entitlement or worth, or perhaps nonexistent.
