It was a later time in life when I realized I wanted to be a musician. Being a polarized thinker at times I found it a strange, & off-beat experience to own up to desires that are tucked away under scrutiny, or thoughtlessness. Like an unintelligible course of action. A secret I veiled with being cooler than it. I have had formal involvement in playing instruments as a child: the accordion, the piano, the electric keyboard, and a singing voice. I never thought I had any intentions to become a musician. It was a cognitive distortion to want to. Soon, learning to play instruments became a distant participle. Singing became very casual, & my musical taste very trivial. This went on for years on passed my early thirties. One day I became struck with bewilderment publishing my writing on the internet that included some form of graphic design with my self pic incorporated as a graphic element to accompany the poem, or short essay. When I owned up to my burning desire to be a musician I approached unfrequented roads with no applicable social skills embodied. This determined my journey to be a challenge, plus another half of mare's nest, &. jumble Before considering any singing talent I tried to diminish the challenge by keeping my vision simple & using computer generated voices, Carousing the internet with my poetry now ushered with music I found myself struck with butterflies but realized a savvy skill to manufacture, & orchestrate computer generated dialog instead of singing. I resorted to make claims that we are conceived from the free enterprise to bring allure where I might lack because of stage fright that I felt no one needed to know about, & harness my lead position in the band. So there you have it! It has been more than twelve years and I am still like a whirlwind spinning around softly trying to adjust a likeability. Being that I had no experience having a band I tolerated all criticism, & trusted the etchings from originality to some day bring sophistication, & become worldly, validated art. I knew it would be a life long process. I am actually very happy, & imaginative about it now.
