welcome back, everybody. i always look forward to the times when we see each other. today, i’ve prepared a short set of new poems for you all that i call the “cutting room floor EP.” the title choice is apt: originally, these poems were set to be part of my 30th full-length album, one that was meant to be very straightforward, almost playing out like a simple conversation. however, i felt while writing them that they were just regurgitating points from my last project, but in a more direct way. i didn’t feel that deserved to be the direction of a milestone 30th album; it deserves to be special. thus, i shelved that concept, but i thought it would be wrong to throw these poems away completely, so i decided to toss them onto a short EP. i hope you all enjoy it. there’s plenty more to come from here. i’m currently in the process of writing several poems, and i hope to have them out soon. even with all the projects i’m working on, poetry will always be in my back pocket. after all…#30 has to come sooner or later.
1. bleaker by the day
