What is often promised falls short in delivery, and it is only to the fault of expectation that we see this tumble from the high we envisioned, that we took for granted that the initial meeting with the outcast and the individual would be anything more than a one-night stand in the company of the eccentric and the unconventional.

You can believe that you can hide from the shadows and the darkness all you like, but in the end it becomes easier, less exhausting to admit that being prepared for the ill-omens and the creatures that carry menace and foreboding evil is something to be proud of, that the very threat others see you that they believe is being mired in misery and gloom, is in actual fact a shield, a weapon to carry into the attack on those who see the world through lies, falseness and the rose-tinted glasses of ignorance; Ominous belief perhaps, but one that is immersed entirely and with respect to the craft in the absolute and real.

The threads of success and completion are so tightly stretched that it only takes a sharp tug and the whole process, the experience, can come lose, can snap before it has even had time to be recognised for what it is, and in the same way that individual prowess can be lost when Time and nature conspire against us, so to do the threads of success suffer under the same strain.

Isolation and alienation are not considered happy bedfellows, but they can be found to be often related via mutual understanding when one person suffers and agonises over pain and virtue in equal hostile measure.
Quite often, the more you push against the two despairing emotions, the harder it is to see yourself as free from the effects and damage they inflict upon you, the separation of spirit and soul they exact, like badly informed justice and deliverance, the casualty and the wounded party often seek to further entrench themselves into the position where Try Harder becomes a verbal punishment designed by those with little empathy and care of understanding.
Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 8.5/10
It doesn’t take a sailor or a mythical creature who guides many a doomed soul to the jagged, unforgiving rocks, to sings Songs Of The Sea, for those waves that either gently lap at the shore and thrill sun bathers as they bathe their sand crusted feet, or the kind that turn rogue or episodic which can crash into the side of a cliff with devastating results, at the end of the day still produce the same effect, the erosion of the land with the help of time.

We can but be Young once, and during that time all that we do is either experienced out of inquisitiveness or out of youthful bravado or hidden malevolence, as the insightful writer of human experience, Virginia Woolf, once wrote, “One of the signs of passing youth is the birth of a sense of fellowship with other human beings as we take our place among them.”
The finest
book
I never read
was by
Darcy Sarto.
I
will never
read that book now
because
Darcy’s missing,
presumed dead.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10
A gesture of thanks must always be acknowledged, that even in the sadness of passing, people will always recognise the natural artistic gift to which people bring to the fore with courage, with passion and a huge willingness to sacrifice time in the pursuit of excellence, no matter how it is received at the time, what is immersed in greatness will always find a way to be re-discovered, be reborn into a time when others find the pleasure imagined at the time.

Where Time Suspends, inspiration unlocks and sets free the spirit to explore, to be at peace and rage against interruption and postponement with all its might.
Time though suspends for a reason, the moment where you can hear it withhold its passage between the Tick and Tock is the most precious gift that it can bestow, for whilst inspiration serves a greater purpose, reflection is the place where the Muse looks you in the eye and asks you take part in the dance, serenaded by silence, buoyed by the song of the passionate eternity; for in that moment what is born, what appears fresh to the world is the commitment to push to clock onwards and allow what you have dreamed to be pursued.
