Proclamation
Posted in Inspiration, Life, Poem, Poetry on September 13, 2013 by darkjade68These are Challenging times…
Full of difficult decisions, and situations
We must trust ourselves now more than ever…
Those Voices we ignore on the inside are Screaming loudly to be heard
Each of us is not that different from one another…
Not in respects to certain Core, Fundamental things
Greet people with a Hello…
Look them in the eyes
And Mean what you Say…
Seems simple enough
Right?
But we all know that, that can sometimes be hard
Yes, these are Challenging times…
We have our Work Cut out for us
But to be Challenged…
Truly Engaged in Life
That’s what Boils the Blood…
And reminds us we’re alive

Doubt Creeps in…
The Rain falls harder tonight
Trying to keep inspired…
Is there someone out there that really cares
I Crack the window…
Cool air seeps in
The Scent of Moonlight Strikes my Senses…
I let you in
Candles lit…
But the coolness covers your fire
I step slowly around the room…
You Mirror me in white
Our Eyes Lock, but do you see…
I Reach out, but find only Phantoms
The Floor Cracks…
I Fall through
Falling…
This Blackness, with Crooked Green Light
I stop Struggling…
It wraps me Tighter
But it can not hold me…
For I have Wings of Fire
And Blood Electric…
I Rise softly now
Leaving only Tears that fall below me…

A Homage To Kimbra
Posted in Inspiration, Music with tags A Homage To Kimbra, Kimbra on February 21, 2013 by darkjade68She enters the room, unassuming… Her band set in readiness.
From beneath her dark bangs, glisten her blue eyes as they softly glimpse at each of her mates.
Seeing that they are ready, she approaches the microphones, one was never enough, she now uses two…
Her eyes close, as she enters that place… Where she’s hidden her song, safely between her heart, and soul.
She lets out her first breath, bringing life to the tune, which soon reaches her lips, and unleashes melody and tone…
Her body starts to move immediately, as the song courses through her very blood, and the vibrations of rhythm raise her slightly above ground.
The band starts to groove, as her voice guides them on their way…
Their time together is intimate, and pure… Much like the cry of a new born babe.
Meanwhile in the dark, the masses who are actually before her, wave their hands in the air, holding up sources of light, closing their eyes, and mouthing, or singing along.
Kimbra then opens her eyes, and starts to prowl around the stage from one side to the next… Reaching out to her fans, while reaching into her soul…
She connects with the one’s that Love, and Admire her… And leaves them wanting more.
She Appreciates them… Cares for them, and often pinches herself when alone, to remind herself that this is indeed happening… She is indeed Touring, and Sharing, and Celebrating, and Singing, and Moving… And Connecting with People who Truly Love, and Dig her.
In the end she can not help but smile… As her bangs fall over her eyes again, and she peaks from beneath them to see if she has left her fans satisfied…
And then another song begins.
Dark River

This Dark River runs through me
It will not go away
It Latches to Displeasures…
Troubles and Dismay
This Dark River casts me out…
From Happiness, Pleasures, Love
But mostly when I Sleep…
This Dark River pushes and shoves
The disappointments we Feel are no more constant than the rain…
Which passes through, it will not stay
The Loneliness that comes…
Deep within the night
Disappears with morning…
Sunrise’s First Light
Mortality’s not an easy thing, when taken all at once…
Best hold things closely in your Heart
Than watch them Fade away
This Dark River sometimes reaches my neck…
Threatens my Breaths…
But like the tides
Of Ocean Filled Skies…
It pulls away
Leaving Sand Plucked Shells of life…
Filling jars of Hope, Joy and Beauty throughout the Day

Letting It Go
Posted in Editorial, Film Making, Inspiration, Music, Music Video with tags Rihanna Diamonds on January 19, 2013 by darkjade68It’s interesting… Being someone whose wanted to be a Film Maker the majority of his life, and also someone that Loves Music (Not that most people don’t)
Over the years I’ve had numerous Ideas if not for Complete Films, and or Music Videos… Than for just Scenes from a Movie, that has yet to be made. If that makes sense, Lol
But in the last 17 Months, I have for the first time been full blown pursuing Writing Books for a Living, and yet Movie, and Music Video Concepts still come to me.
Like today when Rihanna’s ‘Diamonds’ song came on My Pandora Radio Station… And suddenly, I had an idea for a Video for the Song.
Now don’t get me wrong, not only does this song already have a Video, which was Posted November 8th… But that Video already has over 150,000,000 Hits… And I have to say, earlier today it was 149-somethen million, and checking now, it’s almost gone up a million today alone… So, yeah, her Video’s doing just fine.
But that’s not it… I came up with a Meaningful Concept, that I Would Love to Film, and Get done.
But as the Title of this Post indicates, I Need to just “Let It Go”.
Ok, so that sounds silly, as I’m sure lots of people have ideas about lots of things, that they’re just not able to pull off…
And yet it still Fascinates me that even with that being the case, I actually get to experience being Passionate About said idea for a bit either way.
I really do feel that My Concept would be Awesome. Meaningful… Beautiful really.
And Though Rihanna is Beautiful, and has an Extremely Powerful Presence, she wouldn’t actually be in the Video that I conceived.
I just thought I’d Write a Post about this, because maybe some of you Fellow Artists know what I mean… Having an Idea/Concept come to you, that you feel absolutely Passionate about, even though the likelihood of you actually doing anything with it, isn’t all that good.
Passion is Amazing to me… Imagination is one of the Greatest Experiences of My Life, and I’m glad that mine never went anywhere upon entering the ‘Adult’ World, Lol
So though I’m not currently Pursuing Film, I Do Hope that My Writing Brings Forth some Vivid Images for My Readers… That’s the Hope anyway.
DarkJade, Signing Off
Have A Great Weekend
*I Leave you with the Actual Rihanna – Diamonds Video, which is Absolutely Nothing like the Concept I have, Lol
The Bear Necessities
Posted in Chess With Agatha, Editing, Fantasy, Fantasy Novel, Fiction, Inspiration, Novel, Story, Walt Disney with tags The Bear Necessites on January 15, 2013 by darkjade68Ok, so as I ‘Trudge’ My way through Applying some of My Friend’s Grammar, and Line Editing Notes to My “Chess With Agatha” Manuscript… I find myself constantly changing which Pandora Station that I listen to…
I ended up landing on My “Arabian Nights Radio” (Check it out if you like Animated Movies Etc.), and This Song Came on, and made me feel a bit better about what I’m doing, Lol… And I don’t know why (Though I have always Liked this Song, Lol)
