Here's a link to my band, Basement Vinyl's 3 song EP:
http://basementvinyl.bandcamp.com/

A quality recording of my band, Basement Vinyl, covering Bob Dylan, more to come soon:

the sound of breath

a bellows
ignites the iron-flame
of yesterday
and bathes
the room in
pumpkin light

cinders fall like
gnats, who lost breath
and returned to the dirt

a wheel turns and needs to
stop, so eyes can travel
to dreamland

I travel through dark houses
sampling them like
a bite of various fruits

I crawl towards a wall
and feel my fingertips
losing feeling

when my snakeskin
peels off
I'll be a weathervane
pointed to the west

Here's another song by my band, which is now known as Blue Variable:

When Temperaments Get Tempestuous

The thread

一
a samurai sword/
cuts silence like
thin bamboo
split by, the sharpened
steel-toe kick
of the west

二
before execution
a man spit in the face
of a would-be undertaker
and escaped
due to a witty girl
who saw the advantage
of Ronin blades
against an oppressive edge

三
keep smiling
dumpling lady

while a ruckus
rages in the tea house
a hidden samurai
explains to idiots outside
about
'how to conduct oneself'
'in an appropriate manner'

before tea spills
and blood
spills

四
he might help
Kitty Genovese
and reverse the wheels
of time, the samurai outside

questions
honor, a medal of
worth, while conflicts
inside are dealt with
violence, a hasty way
to create silence

五
he gathers coins back
from the governor
who oppressed the land, and drained
the people of water
and rice

六
Vagrant Story
threatened their captors
and dodged crows
with skilled acrobatics

七
once the wage is sealed
with their savior
an innocent soul
is protected

is cut

here's a raw recording of a song from my new band, Red Desert Gold: Red Desert Gold consists of: Aaron Harms- Vocals/Rhythm Guitar Justin Pelton- Lead Guitar Grant Blakeslee- Drums Expect more recordings to come and show dates to be announced!!

Time is a Labyrinth

Hemingway in Reverse

cold

she used ice as a sheet for her bed

when the ground gets
cold and trees are static
wings of air move with magnetic force
a breeze through the U curvature of a bridge's bottom

the cabin is empty now, doors are broken and the
windows are a thin glass like paper

old wood, stained by rain, snow, bats in the ceiling

inside a broken piano, strings detune by cold fingers

frozen smoke billows to a wispy sky
a nomad retreats, a prince from the east falls

the sun is a satellite is a moon is a star
a plant grows towards warmth, roots spread out
the snow, a cold shroud, surprisingly bright

reflection eternal
left down winter lane
the space between two worlds
