NEWS UPDATES
May 23, 2023
I have not publically published anything since Deeper Within the Flesh in 2019. With that said, I have decided to publish the first thing since that date right here.
Enjoy the read.
"Drowning in the Depths"
I am so sick and tired of love and all of life's tears... still drowning in the depths of the ocean. And wondering if love really is or just a couple of blooms for my sinful and lustful desires, binding me into a sea of sin I never thought could have been.
And yet again my aching heart throbs a million times fold for losing myself in to an illusive loves secret domain.
And I lost forever in a December mind. So cold and abandoned from everyone's life. And watching those people around me, envious by their romances as we pass by one another.
As I lit candle jealousy without foresight of if my love life is another dull no more.
Or perhaps I am too drowned into the sea to notice the nightingale that is certain for me.
Still drowning into the depths of the ocean.
For whom I sought for lovely days.
Not brooding and desiring those.
Not trying to reach up into the air,
Grasping for those desirous feelings.
How else do I endeavour when no one desires to speak of such jewelry. Such priceless items not worth any gold.
For a moment in routine.
For although now brings in its stream
For a moment in routine.
For a moment in routine.
I am so sick and tired...

Hope my friends and readers well in grand spirits. If not, a smile makes a great feeling inside... Go on, give it a try.
I am aware that people are deep in their cave, not getting out much due to the Kung flu-boognish that is around... Flames all around up and down the great California state. And I am toning down the books are well over 15,000 pages (now, two parts; ii ov iii & iii ov iii) of Forrest of caves ii: deeper within the flesh. I just do not want to stop writing it. Yes yes ... It is fifteen thousand plus pages between the two. To be honest, I should have never rewrote the first part and just kept evolving the ideas and creating the two main characters (Archangel and Demon) to perhaps went off reminiscing of what I have destroyed... Ugh. I am so conflicted.... No idea whaty this trilogy was such a maze in resolution. perhaps I should have titled it, the book of Michael (hence, Archangel). Anyways... Now, to look for or create my own book covers... Get them copy edited and proofed.
Oh, this one is a bit on the digital side. You see, a lot of the literature in the book was encrypted... So, unless you have the right program, software and need how... A lot of the literature inside of the book was created as if ancient archetype like text... However, it is just modern day 1's and 0's all day long, so to speak. However... The best part about them... To encrypt then evolves a wheel of knowledge I decided to encrypt for aritificial intellectual programs to bat their own programmed minds on the subject. Kind of a mindhack of sorts... What on Earth does this all freaking TRANSLATE TO, JESUS JAZZCAKES!!!
Anyways... Keep an eye. No release or preorder as of late.
I bow to all of those lost during 9-11. May your spirits flow with joy and become cleansed from such negative.

AMERICAN
BUDDHIST
Sunday; April 14, 2013
I felt it was time to tell a story about an American Buddhist man, who goes through similar trials and tribulations
that the once great Buddha himself did many generations ago.
The story is set in California in a small town in the northern territory. I had a great deal of laughs while writing this story and I am happy to share it with readers of all generations.
Here is an excerpt of the story;
“He is able who thinks he is able.” And smiles while he eats his morning meal. He picked up his pen and journal and wrote the thought down just below the writing he wrote only moments ago.
————————————————————-
What did the American Buddhist write before this? Well, I will not mention or spoil it here and you will have to grab yourself a copy of the book when it is released. There is currently no release date as of yet, however it will be very soon. So expect it to be released soon enough and I know you will enjoy the read.

FOREST OF CAVES: THE DARKEST GARDEN Book Video Teaser
MAY 17, 2012
‘Niomkin appears in front of me
Her amethyst hair glowing
…And she speaks.
“You should have let me kill Rodan. But no, you left me to die instead.
I will come back soon and this time; he will be dead.”
She said, slicing me with her razor blade nails.
“I will come again.” Niomkin said.
And she disappeared from the darkest garden.’
-An excerpt from the book Forest of Caves: The Darkest Garden
Not many will even comprehend who the character Niomkin nor Rodan is, until I release a future book that will not be available to the public anytime soon. Not that I am not working on it, however, I just do not plan on publishing it anytime soon. I was hoping some random hot shot of a literary agent would come and swoon me off my feet. (Yes, I meant swoon, not swoop.)
In the meantime, the only person that will understand the stanza above is me. Which is fine, I kind of like the suspense of it all kind of marinating in readers minds, which is always nice. Neither of them are characters you wouldn’t really expect from anyone. So they’re two main characters I simply have a hard on for, and stay erect in so many respects while continuing on writing them. So far, there are two books about these two characters…however, I am not here to talk about future events. I am writing now to write about a book teaser.
The teaser took me 12 man hours total to create. 12 hours of thinking what to do, how to do it, and what kind of a soundtrack with chosen songs that seemed mildly appropriate. And Haujobb and another Daniel Myer project titled Cleen (Not sure if he will come out with another album from this band) were two choice picks for this particular piece. And received kind permission to use the work. Thanks again Daniel.
I enjoy editing software, it’s amazing stuff. You can pinpoint a timeline between a song and a frame and viola! It just comes together, and it takes a lot of time and patience to do. I imagine a lot of people get paid to do it, and I am not one of them.
The Darkest Garden has been out since 2009. (January 4, 2009) It is the third and final chapter of the Forest of Caves Trilogy, as I have written in earlier blog postings, so I won’t babble on about it.
Other titles inside of the book, to write a few are; “The ancient soldier Part I”, “A conversation with sapphire”, “The kiss to you” and one before last titled “Say farewell to the darkest garden”.

\ISeason's Greetings from the Distorted Poet I/
November 19, 2011
Have a great holiday season. I just wanted to write and mention I have had a great 2011 and even though it is not over yet, I know it will be soon into the new year. I imagine 2012 will bring many new challenging obstacles in my line of work of not only writing books, but song lyrics and other mediums of literary form to those who desire my services as a poet and author. Blessed be and enjoy life.
P.S. Coming Soon: PART I of the short Story Destiny will be available for reading on this website in the short stories section in the links above on the site. In the meantime, enjoy and have fun.

ENJOYING THE DREAM WITHIN THE FOREST OF CAVES PT. II SERIES
September 20, 2011
I have recently come up with the title for the last book in the Forest of Caves II series.
I will not write the title just yet, but this title isn’t going anywhere so I won’t change it for the world.
This one in the series will be very dark and over indulging on projection within my self, and how I’ve seen all walks of life perish to their death as I will and everyone else unfortunately will when it is there time to evolve into the threshold.
It will be a mixture of love, and all of life’s tears, hatreds, joys and fears tossing us around like rag dolls on strings like dangled puppets.
“Forest of Caves II: Deeper Within the Flesh”
The book will be the first of three in the new trilogy series of Forest of Caves II.
I’m not sure if I want this cover just yet, but I will see. As in previous blog posts, I wrote about denying the cover of the earlier promotional cover of the book. I am not entirely certain that I want this cover as the published version of the first book in the series, but I thought I would address the nature of it.
The photographs that you see on the cover were all taken in Lake Merritt’s Bonsai garden in Oakland, California. And the forest that you see in the cover art is a photograph taken in an area in Sweden. I had some previous critique from an old and dear friend of mine, and he informed me that it looked “Too Renaissance”. I wasn’t really going for that look, so I’m definitely looking at other options before finalizing the books cover design as a final piece for the future release and publication.
You can view the covers at the link below:

“Forest of Caves II – Deeper Within the Flesh”
•March 7, 2011
Well, a few weeks ago, after completing the rough draft of Deeper Within the Flesh, an upcoming book release I hope to release before Spring of 2011; I decided to completely re-write the whole thing.
Here is the first 157 words:
“Deeper Within the Flesh”
A very gray wind from the middle eastern lands
One by one – the sand arose into the sky.
As the scales of the air
Thick and crowded
A congested freeway on rush hour
Marching onto a dark beyond.
She cloaks her lust into my view
Her breasts – bare before me.
Heaven could not imagine such beauty
Until laid there before me.
Glistening
Un-Borrowed – And mine for my forbidden appetite.
A lustful year as I ate the poison from the apple.
And I now cursed by a dark witch as she laughs
Her piercing gypsy hell.
In London; I afloat in a discreet opium bar.
I stare up at a woman with three eyes
And six breasts
Her skin; radiation blue.
Her eyes; an ancient turquoise green.
And her hair –Amethyst crystals,
Flowing exquisite perception.
She stared–smiling. Naked-cross legged and her arms swayed like a constant motion
Like endless waves from the pacific.
The cover design is a rough demo of the soon to be final draft. The above 157 words will be in the book and unedited. What you see above will be a very small amount of crumbs for your double dutch chocolate cake soon enough. I hope you enjoyed reading the first 157 words of “Deeper Within the Flesh” from the upcoming release:
“Forest of Caves II – Deeper Within the Flesh”
There is No Official Book Release Date at the Present Time.
