The Odyssey: A Mariner’s Tale
“I left my love many moons ago. Lying now upon the deck, I stare up at the familiar face of the moon, trying to imagine the slipping image of someone that once was a part of my being. I have watched the moon’s journey through the darkness, its never-ending voyage through the heavens. I suppose it too is stranded in an ocean that is all at once familiar and foreign, searching for the shores it once called home. But instead, as this ill-fated mariner knows all too well, fate is a wicked mistress and leads us with her grip of death along this eternal carousel, this lonely ride. But, where the moon shines as bright as the day it landed in the night sky, my appearance, and I fear my soul is cold and grey, for it is with blissful ignorance that the moon shines. It knows not what I know. It has yet to come upon the revelation…. It came to me with the rush of a great wave over the deck. We are both dead. Although we may seem to be carrying on just as the living, we are being pushed along to the great beyond. I suppose this eternal ocean we have found ourselves in is merely the medium between the earthy below and the heavens. Our souls are but mere passengers now, the captain: the angel of death. It is perhaps shocking, I do realize, that the infamous angel is not the same image we were taught in scripture, a dark being in ominous robes. Rather, she is the ocean. While at first I struggled to grasp this concept, I now understand it quite lucidly. This medium, this waiting room to heaven, is supposed to illuminate a cruel fate to poor souls. I suppose it’s a gift from a condoling god, perhaps offering us one last chance to say goodbye to the one’s we love before we journey on to the great beyond. And so here I lay, staring up at the only company I have had in what seems to have been an eternity. Do I want to go on, just as the moon, disregarding all the signs around me and continue searching for familiar shores? Or, do I blow my love one final kiss and hope the winds carry it home? I envy the moon’s ignorance… time has come for me… Give a kiss to the wind, one final goodbye… stare into the infinite deeps of the ocean and prepare to take the final leap. Goodbye my love.”

| pretty cool stuff. i probably would have changed the order of some tracks a little. i like the mix toward the end more, as it became less movie-ish. what are you working on next? |
