That’s a load off my shoulders…

Mom’s Spaghetti

Last night was a long, overdue milestone in my life. It passed much easier than I imagined, but that’s only because I’d been doing it in my head every day since the teenage fantasy phase. I played guitar and sang in front of people. I fell in love with singing during my early years. I […]

I Think I Finally Found My Dallas Tribe

Seriously. It only took 6 years, but it felt like home. Here’s a snippet. This will be a weekly thing. Come find me between Southside, Grenada, and Bishop Arts.

“Midlife Crisis” v11262024 by Dare Cloud (original song)

Every album needs that one song that makes all the red necks pee their pants because it talks about moonshine or weed or both. This is my first attempt at something like that. Not peeing, moonshine, or weed. I meant writing this kind of song. You guys are silly but I love you. Also, I […]

Random…

Just a quick thank you to the readers who are making my poetry more interesting than my past-bashing. I know who you are, and you’re appreciated.

Does It Get Old?

Trying my best to perform my morning routine as a stranger in a strange land, but it appears as though I’m the constant. No matter where you go, there you are.

Bet You Were Clueless

72 in isolation. Stained glass livestream of societal collapse. Humanity’s screams pay homage to the music of my youth sans mullets. The horrors of burnt flesh invade my senses through each painstaking breath. Medium well flesh? Not so much. In fact, with some onions and a bit of sauce, it wouldn’t be so bad. Wouldn’t […]

Kitty Underworld

I have to talk about this. If I leave it inside my head much longer, it’s going to begin clawing its way out for a whisp of oxygen. Can oxygen be measured in whisps? For the sake of this tale, let’s pretend it does. See how simple that was? That’s how we lost the election. […]

Rev-iew: The 4:30 Movie

First, let’s see what the fine folks at Wikipedia have to say about this film: The 4:30 Movie is a 2024 American semi-autobiographical coming-of-age comedy film written and directed by Kevin Smith. It stars Austin Zajur, Nicholas Cirillo, Reed Northrup, Siena Agudong, and Ken Jeong. The story is loosely based on Smith’s experiences sneaking into movie theaters as a teenager and his earliest romantic endeavors.[2] It […]

SMGDH.

The Ultimate Guitar app just asked me if I’d like to see advanced tabs from Moana 2. For years, I’ve thought I hadn’t known Rock n Roll. Truth is, Rock n Roll doesn’t know US anymore. Why would I want guitar tabs to a Disney animated cash grab that’s shown us nothing in the trailer […]
