This journal begins on the 22nd of September, 2022 AD, during the Fall Equinox- the beginning of my favorite time of year. Who knows how long these musings will go on. I intend to share music, dream logs, thoughts and memories, art, and more… to allow those who come here to glimpse beyond the surface, into the furthest reaches of my mind.

So beware.

This rabbit hole will lead from the lands you know, into lands you know not. Few will resonate with what is to come.
