Bwahahahahaha…did you think you could sneak in with the cool fall breeze? Think again! I could smell your artistic sweat
oozing from your pores long before you even concocted the idea about dropping by. Regardless of your method or reason, I
insist that you take a load off and join me for a spell.
I am Chaos and this is my little corner of the universe. Welcomed are all those spinning with the madness of creativity. That
never ending anti-silence that fills the brain with echoing chants and whispering words.
This month I had the sheer pleasure of the company of a songwriter out of Philadelphia, PA. JESSE RUBEN fuses delicate,
heartfelt lyrics with pure emotion in his piece, “This is Why I Need You”.
“Cause you make the darkness less dark
You make the edges less sharp
You make the winter feel warmer
You make my weakness less weak
You make the bottom less deep
You make the waiting feel shorter
You make my crazy feel normal, every time
You are the who, love is the what, this is the why”

Edges of sanity graze the plane of sadness while everyone weeps at the door waiting for their prize. Simplicity would have it
that there is no award awaiting the victor, only another dream. Dream vast and dream eternal, never let go of that which feeds
your soul. We have been cast from the heat and soon into the cold.
As the leaves turn colorful and fall to the ground I find myself reaching beyond the clouds. All the way from Finland our next
artists are bound. ELECTRIC WHEELS OF CONFUSION are a rock trio from Helsinki. The piece they have shared with us--”Atomic
Spawn”, breeds an alternate perception within the mind--should you dare to allow it to permeate.
“Let's see you open up
Say the things that make unwanted company
Can't hide
Only your broken soul
Shines through your eyes
Can't hide the surgery”
