Welcome to the Embarcadero

The morning sun is so pretty by the bay
People love to sit and watch the water with their dearest companion
The architecture is astounding
Vendors sell their pretty things
And the grassy field is deserted
The buildings "tower" over pedestrians running to work
While some men sit, thinking
And then there are the few who sit and eat hot dogs while watching the 9 o'clock shadow.
Happy Holidays.

My Name

My Calling.
My Sound.

"Into the Ocean" by Blue October

"I'm just a normal boy
That sank when I fell overboard
My ship would leave the country
But I'd rather swim ashore
Now floating up and down
I spin, colliding into sound
Like whales beneath me diving down
I'm sinking to the bottom of my
Everything that freaks me out
The lighthouse beam has just run out
I'm cold as cold as cold can be...
be...
Not knowing how to think
I scream aloud, begin to sink
My legs and arms are broken down
With envy for the solid ground
I'm reaching for the life within me
How can one man stop his ending?
I want to swim away but don't know how
Sometimes it feels just like I'm falling in the ocean
Let the waves up, take me down
Into the ocean, end it all
Into the ocean, end it all
Into the ocean, end it all
Into the ocean...end it all."
