And today i begin to write my blog. I hope everyone who dares to enter this site enjoys what i write, though i believe that i am the only intrested person. So let us begin with the darkness...

Here I am at home writing in my my good old computer listening to the great album "The focusing Blur" by the gentleman Vintersorg... I strongly recomend everyone to listen to it... as i was saying here i am writing at my computer, only to let everyone know that just yesterday i began my new metal band... After a 3 hour rearsal, we had made some glorious riffs and in the end we had our first 1:30min of great music. For now it will only be myself on the Keyboards, Ricardo on the Bass and Caldeira on the Guitars. Hopefuly i will have something to show you on the next 2 or 3 months... but lets not strive... I also hope we decide for a name meanwile.

And now for something Completly different:

Curtains
The curtains never fall - they only rise
At the cosmic theatre,
standing ovations came at the 15 billion-mark"

Blurs and vague impressions aside -
the engineer, the director
had the galaxies disposed, and then exposed
for the explorers who never took an answer for an answer

A matter of time - not space
How far linearity has permitted us to see
Outwards means backwards in a universe so vast
Stretched in time, see it commence
- a set of celestial fragment
sat immeasurable expanses

How far a flicker can force itself
Through dimness, through fields of emission
The shine slowly turning red
A burgundy sense of distance

An overturned curtain call
- the velvety draperies eternally rising
into infinite blurs of timelessness
for an audience correctly dressed in
extravagant suits of flaming curiosity
The witnesses and surveyors of celestial enchantment

Hunted by distance and time
The curtain reluctantly withdraws
A prelude to the swirling drama:
creation - formation - design
or deduction - destruction - collapse
- all depending on the angle

Vintersorg

Darkness is leaving...
