My angular and wandering travels....

Duncanville, TX, United States
I'm an international person, having spent 6+years of my youth in various Central and South American countries. Within my occupation as a television engineer, I've since traveled back to Mexico several times to film various religious sites, to Ireland to film a video documentary on the life of St. Patrick, to Portugal and England. Each time I took hundreds of pictures, wrote songs and poems about the things I saw and heard and felt go on around me, and tried to absorb a sense for what people in each locale thought. How they love, how they see, how they think.... My other sites: www.myspace.com/mothtoacandle http://community.webshots.com/user/waynocook www.soundclick.com/eddieaustin

Remember Me

Oh, the twists and turns, have brought me here
The choice, the sins, the unfaced fears,
Faces in the dark, of the dark, behind the dark
Crusting and aging and destroying my heart.

Here I kneel, before the tomb,
One last time I crave the womb
The warmth that I left far behind,
Innocence lost, the devil reminds.

I would beg forgiveness, could I remember the words
I would ask the last chance, if I could just stop the world
The Thief mustered one last shuddering breath
Remember me, just before his death
