My Spirit Longs To Make A Music That Is Great, Like The 'Symphony Of Sorrowful Songs' By Gorecki, A Music That Grips The Rib Cage And Causes An Arch In The Back, A Music That Spiritualizes The Body " The Spirit Is Willing, But The Flesh Is Weak".
These Songs Appeared As I Had Mostly Fallen Apart. There Is A Shabbiness To Them, Unfinished.
I Don't Feel I Have Progressed Much From My Younger Days.
Ansel Called Them 'Devotional Pop', And I Have Stuck With That Idea To Complete Them. I Recorded Everything With My I-Pad, Including The Vocals With The Built In Microphone. I Recorded Much In The Woods During The Summer, With My I-Pad And A Notebook And A Thermos Of Coffee And Cigarettes. To Pace And To Smoke And To Listen To An Idea To Start To Bloom After Recording A Take Is One Of The Great Secret Joys Of My Life. Any Artists Knows What I Mean It Is Intoxicating....

I Lived At An Orthodox Monastery For Several Years, And Was A Novice Monk For Half These Years. Why I Left Is Too Long Of A Story, And Isn't Edifying, Other Than A Humbling Lesson For Myself Of Own Inconsistency. I Met A Friend During My Stay There, And It Was A Friendship Blessed By God, A Sharing Of Fire. He Invited Me To Stay With Him After I left The Monastery, And I Did. We Prayed And Read Together, Made Jokes And Smoked Cigarettes On The Porch And Drank Coffee And Talked For Many Hours. We Went On A Road Trip And Slept In The Car In The Winter Cold. He Left Me Somewhere And Went His Own Way, And Died Soon After.

I Came Apart After This, Slowly, Physically, And Mentally. I Don't Think Its Important To Go Into Great Detail On this. "I Feel My Illness As The Love Of Christ" Said My Friend St. Porphyries, And Him Listen To And Try To Imitate. But After The Low Of This, The Rock Bottom, There Came An Immense Grace, Although I Felt Wounded. Maybe Some Of You Will Know What I Mean Without Having Explain A Mystery Profanely - - A Psychical Illness, A Psychological Woundedness, An Emotional Trauma, Once Surrendered, It Is Like A Silver Dagger That Enters The Heart And The Spiritual Power Enters There, Effervescent, Alive. You feel It Vibrating At The Strangest Times, And You Recognize It In Others.

My Favorite Things To Read Are Journal And Letter From Thoughtful People Who Seek, Because Greatness Comes Through Their Smallness. Think Of This Album As My Scribbled But Energized Entries During A Time Of Great Pain And Beauty.
They Do Not Sound Like Much, But I Think You May Receive Some Of The Power If Your heart Has Been Wounded By Love.
