We're five people, five individuals who came together to create something, to make music and to complete each other musically, to form a perfect circle.

Dreaming the Perfect Imperfect Dream
She said:
'I have made you up
and now I believe in you more
than my reality
and my dependence is complete
and perfect
because
you are my perfect creature
and now all around me
seems dull
real people seem
to be without your luster.
I can dream you
but I cannot live with you
marry you,
nor can I marry
those real
pale reflections of you.
So I am stuck and I have no one
to talk to about this but you.
But what ever you say will be perfect
because I have made you in my mind
to say only the things
which make perfect sense to me.
I'm captured by my own dream-you
and unable to un-dream you and seek
imperfection as a substitute.
He said:
I am only a dream without desires
and mind
except that which you impart
and this makes me feel powerless
and even as your perfect dream
I am sad
because I am not my own perfect self
but merely yours-something I sense you sense
since you labor to re-dream me often
severing me from my own attempt to create
a more perfect me
in lieu of a more perfect you invent.
I am dream and dreams dilemma.
We both are now perfect partners
in the conundrum
seeking to eek
out some solution
which does not shatter our dreams
upon which we both now have come to depend.
Ah, but just one last time
can your dream kiss mine?
That only seems fair.
doesn't it.?

There is no executive order; there is no law that can require the American people to form a national community. This we must do as individuals and if we do it as individuals, there is no President of the United States who can veto that decision.

Music's been around a long time, and there's going to be music long after Ray Charles is dead. I just want to make my mark, leave something musically good behind. If it's a big record, that's the frosting on the cake, but music's the main meal.

Concise is the Plan
Concise is the sentence that is embedded in jokes,
A fire has been written from the heart, and your jokes
Are worth nothing. Their fire has been extinguished, already.
The writing on the wall has a funny effect,
Someone has feeling for the art of definition.
We complete the gesture of music in pictorial form.
Thus we are complete, as people of belief.
Crazy boys and girls have the opportunity to learn
Of art and music. Their roles are not different;
They are the same.
Fencing with words has new power of living,
But hitting with the fist of fire has been tragedy.
Concepts of life are mastered by the tragic aspects.
Were we ever-willing to contrive a potion of right?

The Perfect Murder On The Perfect Day
The Perfect Murder…..,
On The Perfect Day……,
No one would find out……,
No possible way……,
She waited in the shadows….,
For him to pass by……,
When he did…..,
The knife did fly…..,
Stabbed him dead…..,
The low-life cheat…..,
Then killed herself….,
To make it all complete….,
The Perfect Murder….,
On the Perfect Day…..,
Happy Valentine’s Day…..! ! !

Music
Music, the sound of loud music just rocks my heart and soul. The feeling is so amazing because the life seems so fulfilled when good music is around. Bright and complete I become. Everything is so perfect when I hear a cool song. Music, it is music. Ultimate feeling can be recieved through loud and lovely music. Listen and feel the rhythm with your heart so that it can touch the soul. Music, loud music.

When we create something, we always create it first in a thought form. If we are basically positive in attitude, expecting and envisioning pleasure, satisfaction and happiness, we will attract and create people, situations, and events which conform to our positive expectations.

What is music to you?
Music is freedom that relentlessly exists
Freedom of speech
Freedom of thought
Freedom of creativity
Freedom of imagination
Music is ever soothingly healing
A bombardment of on-going expression of feelings
Music is a tool of unity
Always bringing people together as family
Hence be described as a mentor of spirituality
Music is magic
Performing its tricks
With sweet instrumental tones and lyrics
Music is emotionally captivating
Music is positively distracting
Music is a form of beautiful art
Passed on as a message on a public stage
Music is as powerful as water
Flowing in and out of generations
Trapped ever so often only by its own enormous power
Music is an angel
Singing out from the skies as she flies
Music is love
Music is the food of all moods
Music is perfect and it is good for you

Dream Work
Though I have only experimented with it briefly, I am a believer in ‘Lucid Dreaming’
Do you ever create poetry in your dreams? Or do you perhaps compose music?
Do you solve complex problems? Or have you ever thought up a joke?
I have done all of the above and of course many more entertaining things.
Dreams amaze and delight me. Do you remember your dreams?
I often do and one morning woke up with this small poem in complete form.
It is not the greatest poem, but I was amazed nonetheless. I will share it now below:
Dream Work
As sure as I am shooting
As far as I can tell
All things of worth
Persist in dreams
So make them serve you well.

Set The Night To Music
Set the night to music
Set the night to music
Look at all the stars tonight, look at all the moonlight
Look at us were all alone
Oh and its just like a dream, some romantic fantasy
Darling come and hold, hold me close
We could be making love
And with the slightest touch
We could, set the night to music
We could set the night to music
We could do what we want to do
Itll only take me and you, to
Set the night to music
Find a rhythm all our own, melt into it nice and slow
Love ourselves away from here
Your heart beating next to mine, perfect love in perfect time
Watch the world disappear
This moment is ours to take (this moment is ours)
And with the love we make
We could set the night to music
We could set the night to music
We could do what we want to do
Itll only take me and you, to
Set the night to music
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah
This moment is ours to take (this moment is ours)
And with the love we make
We could set the night to music
We could set the night to music
We could do what we want to do
Itll only take me and you,
To set the night, set the night
Set the night to music
Set the night to music
We could set the night to music
We could set the night to music
We could set the night to music
Set the night, set the night, set the night, set the night...

Create to Conquer
Allow yourself the time to relax, lost to the rivers flowing.
Rest your weary head sweet traveler for no tax shall be charged
For your stay within the day, still remember to retain your glowing.
Know through dreams that we may discover a reality more real than
We could ever have imagined. Listen to the voice that resides within
Your chest. Allow yourself the time to rest, not every moment is a test.
Know that even in the midst of chaos
We may be calm and contemplative.
No restrictions are there within ourselves
That we did not create to conquer.
Sit down; allow all that is happening around your form to flow.
Know and understand your role within the circle whole.
Observe, spectate, take in all that surrounds you.
Do not attempt to paint the circle blue
Or even in the most evocative of shades
Allow yourself the time to fade,
Surrender yourself without resistance to the
Movement of the moment until little by little
All that once seemed chaos reveals Its harmony to your soul.
Be happy, be free, be all you know you could be.
Just breathe and you will see just how it is you make the circle whole.

Music Notes
Music
The most beautiful thing I'll ever know
A music note
A note after another note
Composed to create sound
To create feelings
Thoughts
And emotion
Music notes are the most beautiful things I've ever seen
A note
Just a glance and u know
Knowing music is being created
Just the beauty of a music note
And the thing is
I can't read music notes
Just the sound the music notes make

Music to Me
Music to me is always you.
Wild chords that surround my heart
that shiver inside me and break apart
into little pieces of solitary tones
that create in me passionate moans.
Music to me will always be you.
Soft lilting melodies that lift me high
and keep me breathless to satisfy
each part of my body and my soul
like the crescendo of a drummer's roll.
Music to me is your sweet touch.
Syncopated rhythms that make me blush
increase my libido and create my purrs.
For whenever the music in me stirs
I feel as if you are here.

Encore!
Rock music is nothing like country, jazz, pop, reggae, and classical.
Rock music is something that is like a band in your head
Rock music is nothing like every other kind of music.
That now has gotten an encore.
Rock Music is something that real people can only hear;
Rock music does not allow posers to hear the real sound.
Rock music may have head bangers, stoners,
Even one of those old guys with the sharpie-d walking canes in the corner.
But Rock music allows only real followers.
Rock music is much like age;
Even though many bands may be getting paid in age, they will still be remembered.
As real Rock Musicians.
Some musicians have not made the best choices,
But does that mean they do not get their fame?
No, even though it may have not been the right way; they will always have
Their Rock band,
Having an encore in their musically fusion heads.

Cinderella and the Prince
Hello sweet excepting smile
Please sit down and stay awhile
In tune we dance in a song
Playing laughs on and on
Together as one
No one can compare
Or cares to complete
That glowing heat
What a mortal angel I am blessed to meet
The common perfect an absolute crazy thing
I'm so foolish indeed
But those lovely anxieties please and fantasies I dream
Life's perfect puzzle piece complete
And though attractive
The people I see
None of them are worthy
Enough to replace
Our perfect world of you and me
When the time we have
Is petite and imbalanced
As magic depletes
Until once again we meet

There are two ways to go about it. You can take a compass and draw a perfect circle and make two perfect eyes as neat as can be. Or you can do it freehand and have some fun with it. Like I did. Give it character.
