Note: I’ve been off and on ill, so am starting to get back on my feet. I hope to start regularly posting again soon. Without further ado, here’s a piece I’ve been working on lately. I have posted with my poetry fractals I created. So I wanted to go over a bit on how I… Continue reading

Music: Improvisations on Keyboard
I often will sit down at my keyboard and improvise songs. I tend toward minor keys because I enjoy their emotive power. Relative minor often has a lighter, sadder sound than harmonic minor, and it is fun to modulate between the two types of minor keys. I also will modulate to a major key for… Continue reading

National Poetry Month: Sequence of Tanka Inspired by Break My Fucking Sky’s Album Final Breath
Drift on winds of time pulsating drone spears the heart A tremble of notes Sprinkled atop harmony wraps around the panicked mind. . Feet crunch broken rocks gloved hands release the stairway alien landscape ripples with mirages, heat above the star gleams blood red. . Hurricane of pain stabs the mind, body with fire energy… Continue reading

Interlude of Truth: The Saga of a Bird and From Order to Chaos
An Introduction of Sorts This is a sequence of poems and fractals — many of the poems I wrote in 2016, though bits of the first segment (I) is from 2015, and the final segment (V) was from 2017.

National Poetry Month: A Ghazal: Pain
National Poetry Month: A Return to the Ghazal I originally wrote this poem on April 11, 2017 but debated posting it on my blog.

National Poetry Month: Octopoem
This was from a prompt given on Legendfire Writing Forum. Prompt was to write an Octopoem. Directions here. The fractal I created in Chaotica rather than my usual Apophysis 7.x program. Embers Scorching blue embers Straddles fall leaves Inside a small, thirsty forest Then a screeching sand-storm Sears and ignites the forest’s undergarments It cavorts… Continue reading

National Poetry Month: Rhymed Tercet
My second poem for National Poetry Month is a Rhymed Tercet. The title of the Fractal is the Echoes of Spacetime. Creation by A. A. Zingler Blazing hot inferno explodes into life in its superheated soup of particles the spark of inflation rapidly spikes. Dust coalesced by gravity’s attraction form the weave of all galaxies’… Continue reading

National Poetry Month — Ghazal: Heart
Ghazal — Heart By A. Zingler (fractal also by me) Explosion of pain incinerates the core of my being, broken heart. Lies told by others incorporates fear and doubt in my mind, shattered heart. Feet sink into cool mud, saturates my fragile spirit, a balm for my heart. New friendship blooms and invigorates trust shared… Continue reading

I am still Alive
I still have hopes for this blog, and I hope to rekindle it with more poetry and world-building and writing articles. But I still am recovering from painful events of late. Sitting in my drafts is a review of the movie Arrival, which I hope to one day finish, when I feel well enough to… Continue reading
