So Precious
At the precipice,
If you’re asked to list,
What is precious,
Will it exist?
Buffalo stampede over the cliff,
Will you be able to resist,
The urge to head with the herd,
Will you concede your principles,
At the precipice,
What if?
Do you know…
At your precipice,
What’s sooo precious?
Will it proceed you,
Or disappear, too?
What will you leave behind?
Will you take it all with you?
The earth, [...]
Shut Up Shutting Up
You talk too much,
But, you sure look good:
“Better off thought a fool,
Than to open your mouth,
And, remove all doubt.”
Blabbin’ “this, that and some such,”
Are ya out of brain food,
Are ya an empty soul,
Did all your senses fly south,
Has your rational [...]
No (k)Not
Thought everything,
Was going fine,
’til I took an overview,
Of introspect.
What did I expect?
To escape what’s due?
So, I thought I’d sew,
A stitch in time,
And, fix that,
Which I call mine,
Pulling the needle through,
But… what?!!?!
The thread,
Has no knot,
Though I’ve racked my head,
Now I know,
There’s nothing,
I can do,
No. Not…
A single thing,
Within view.
Thought everything,
Was going fine,
’til I took an overview,
Of [...]
You Can Be
You can be,
After all,
You are.
You can be,
Total,
No more.
But, would yawanna,
Dwindle…
Lesser?
Who’d wanna,
Terminal,
Temper?
Don’t wannbe,
Dismal,
For sure.
Luckily, it’s easy,
For me to be,
Me.
I appreciate,
Being fortunate,
Won’t consolidate,
My love.
I reiterate,
It’s a great fate,
To procreate,
Our love.
You can be,
What you wannabe.

lyrics
Are you out there?
And, can you hear me?
Or, is this not exactly
What you wanted to see?
Does this bother you
Bother you
Bother you
Terribly?
Are you out there?
And, can you hear me?
Is this not
Is this not
Your reality?
Does it bother you
Bother you
Bother you
Terribly?
Are you out there?
Are you listening?
Can you look
Deep within
Can we start again?
In the darkest night
It brings on [...]
Oh, Well
Lyrics
Though most of my recordings are extemporaneous, there is no one way that I write and record songs. This song is unusual in that it became part of many live performances, yet had never been recorded. So, I started recording a wide variety of renditions. Below is a link to a [...]
Ga, Ga, Ga, Go!
by
Originally, this song was recorded with the intention of adding vocal tracks; however, the instrumental grew on me. Then, when I went to record vocals, it wasn’t possible due to the intensity of the synthesizer.
The song was written “live” using the Guitar Hero World Tour Recording Studio connected through an Inspire 1394 Controller [...]
Keyboard Music
by Mess
A collection of songs and sounds written extemporaneously on a keyboard. Almost all the songs were played on a Korg micro-keyboard. They tend to be non-traditional sounding sonic experiments. The 1/4 inch outputs were plugged directly into an M-audio digital recorder and captured as 48kHz MP3 files.

Guitar Music

A collection of songs written extemporaneously (for the most part.) Quite a few of the songs were played using a Yamaha electric 6-string guitar through a Digi-tech effects pedal. The 1/4 inch outputs were plugged directly into an M-audio digital recorder and captured as 48kHz MP3 files. Sometimes items, such as a [...]
Is There Life On Ours?
While looking down on the human race from high up in a jet airliner, I started thinking about the meaning of life. What will I make of my time on Earth? I have free will. It is my choice whether to take advantage of this gift.
Is there intelligent life on this planet [...]
