Speaking With The Dead
Current mood: curious
Category: Dreams and the Supernatural

     So it's been a while since I've done any recordings around the house and I don't think I've ever posted anything about the paranormal stuff that goes on at the house. The first summer we were here there were a lot of odd things seen and heard. Things settled down, then the winter became more active with knocking on the garage door every morning at 4:00a.m. for a week straight then the knocking moved to being at the deck door around the same time of morning. Also, a lot of voices have been camptured of a digital tape recorder.

     Anyways. Yesterday around 5a.m. I was doing a recording out in the living room and there are a few voices, but the most surprisin/creepy thing is there is rather loud slave music in the background. Mellow singing. It goes on for almost 2 minutes. Freaked me out, especially with how loud it is. Right after a woman whispers something and a man says pretty loudly, "Goodnight". 

                                                           Hmmmmmmmm!!!!!!

If you want to hear this or have any insight feel free to drop a message :]

Crooked summer sings to me
Screaming in my radio
The sun shines down
Sparkles in my eyes
Reminds me that we all die alone

From this dream
A voice is born
Takes control
And loses form

Inside out we sing along
With the winter by our side
Together in suicide
We scrape the hollow shell

Insects crawl and eat the rest
Pull temptation into view
Whiplashed by the undertow
We all die alone

Ink Drop Balloon

Here I leave
A little piece of insomnia
A little piece of paranoia
Hope that somehow
A little piece of me will die

Scroll though the after birth
Through the ashes that still remain
A distant fairytale of something
That used to never be

And with the rising of the sun
I shed my skin
Expose myself in full
Unprotected and unprepared

Leave behind a hallow shell
Something that I can return to
When the flesh
Begins to rip

With the rising of the moon
I move on to uncertainty
Know that this is something
Brand new to linger on

Here I leave
My final mark
My final attempt
Know that this is
My final thought

The Aging Idealist
Current mood: blah
Category: Writing and Poetry

Moon come down to me
Shine your light over me
Protect me, show me the way
Erase all that is this day

Sun come up and take me
Keep me with you
Protect me, show me how
Erase all that is this night

I have wronged myself
I have wronged myself
I have wronged myself
For far too long

Let the blades of grass
Rip me apart
And the petals of daises
Repair my soul

Full of sin and empty hope
In this world we die alone
Together still we shall dance
After to storm before the calm

-Mary-6/27/06

I just wrote this as I typed and honestly, don't like it very much.  Something about it just doesn't grab me the same as some of my other writing does.  Ah well.  Prehaps some of you feel differently.  Regardless, here is an older one I've written and like a little better.

Inside this tiney dream
A wish will die tonight
With bullet holes and succubus eyes
And blood so thick it stains the soul

With teeth so sharp
Like needles would poke
Into baby's breath
Apon a crashing star

Held in too much air
For far too short of time
A need to let the dogs out
Clouds the throat

Choked memories
And
Drown your sorrow
Safely below the sky

Wings of death
Tears of light
Shed some skin around
Feel complete

Out of body
Out of mind
Out of patience
Full of it all

-Mary- 1/10/06

Drink Your Soul...Watered Down
Current mood: cranky
Category: Writing and Poetry

Because you were told to
You would never
Because you were told to
You will always

Inside this mess
We create
A brand new taste
For something bitter
Something that will truly
Stand out
Yet get us
Nowhere

Beautiful
You are so beautiful
Silently drifting
Through your disgrace
Such a tragic begining
And an ending
Written in stone

You are so alone
All together
Silently drifting
Into the fog

This was never meant to be
Anything at all
This just may become
The only thing
Left to
Believe in

The compliation cd for Death Of The LoTek didn't work out as planed, but there are new opportunities in progress so we shall see how that turns out.  For those of you who haven't already been to the site go there (www.myspace.com/deathofthelotek) put your friend request in and start enjoying the world of the Lotek. 

Enjoy
Regret
Imagine what if
Cover yourself in lies
In the end
It will always be worth it
Just for a taste
Of just because
Just for a piece
Of a dream
For a glimpse
Of a shooting star
In the end
We all fall down

LoTek News
Current mood: cheerful
Category: Music

As many of you know, my writing is on hold at the moment until I can get all of the poems under copyright and gather some art to put in the book.  In the mean time, Death Of The Lotek has been asked to be on a comiplation cd.  We are taking votes on which song should go on the cd and are asking anybody with 2 minutes of free time to stop by the site, give the songs we have up a listen, and send us a message saying which song you'd like to see on the cd.  Don't know too much about how everything is gonna go down as of yet.  Only know that the cd will get distributed on some upcomming tours of some big name bands in the metal genre. 

If you haven't already, go to http://myspace.com/deathofthelotek and ADD US TO YOUR FRIENDS!!! Don't forget to rate/comment on the music and let us know what you'd like to see on the compilation.

Right. So I have all the poems that are going in the first book typed.  Need to type another 1 1/2 notebooks worth and every single poem written up to this point will be ready for copyright.  May end up in MD a bit earlier than September the way things are looking now, so...at least enough poems for the first book are done.  Now I am working on getting some artwork together.  May draw some of my own or ask Neil to help me seeing as I'm not so gifted with the art (prime example: pictures in my profile).

If you get the time....MAKE the time rather...go check out Neil's new music at, http://myspace.com/deathofthelotek and also stop by my main page at, http://maryannswebs.tripod.com .  Both sites have been updated and need some attention. 

'Nuff updates for now.  This ended up sounding more like a bulletin post than a blog post. ~sigh~  How lame we are.

Book Progress
Current mood: calm
Category: Writing and Poetry

So far I have about 125 out of 400 poems typed and ready for copyright. Only started working on this about 2 weeks ago so I think I'm making pretty decent progress. All 400 poems are planed to be typed and ready for copyright by early December so that I can get them copyrighted on a trip to MD around Christmas. The copyright office is in Washington D.C. which is only a 2 hour drive from where I'm going to be staying. Makes everything a lot easier. I can have everything done in 15minutes rather then waiting 4 months to do everything through the mail. The book I expect will be available for purchase sometime early 2006. Previews of artwork and poems included in the first book will be available end of December 2005/early January 2006. Yeah I know you all can probably figure the date thing out yourselves, but just in case some of you can't I figured they should be supplied. The subtitle, "This is a test" is defenitly getting changed, probably to "Deal With It" or something along those lines. Enough for now, later all.

Finally decided to make one of these MySpace pages in hopes that I might get some more hits on other pages ...http://maryannsweb.bravejournal.com and http://myspace.com/deathofthelotek . Can't say I'm optimistic, can't say I'm doubtful but we'll just have to wait and see what happens. I'll be doing more on the site as far as customizing and adding to certain fields goes. Just wanted to get the basics up tonight. Enjoi.
