  This is a series I began around April 2020, formulated during the early onset of the Covid-19 pandemic. It was originally intended to be a 3 part "'Zine",  comprised of a particular musical scale and it's related modes, a set of poems and a set of illustrations/images[this part was never created, ultimately due to my own mismanagement - oops]. During the time of creation I was simultaneously in the early stages of writing a draft for a Music Theory book. The intention of which was to create some kind of ' Encyclopedia of Musical Scales '. The Neapolitan Major Scale is so fascinating because it was the first major scale that I learned about which was pretty different from the western standard Major Scale , otherwise known as the Ionian-Major Scale . Sonically, this was so unique to my untrained ear(s) and so it was very exciting to work with and study.

Watching tarot general readings for clarity got a packed bowl and I'm ready to go I'm feeling pretty, tired, I've got all of things i need and/or on the way but I do not feel complete, I do not feel like it's right yet for clarifications sake, I'm talking about life I will remain specific because I want you to understand I want you to feel and think exactly what I'm talking about here Use your best intuition and we can wonder what everything is about and whatever else we'll land in make no rash decisions here, especially when I'm sitting listening to the thoughts and potentialities of true love, and the lust for intellectual bliss Maybe it's not perfection but a premise that we can strive for an approximation of it and work our way towards some kind of real deal scenario You're insecure about being better than you, and I will deny it every time Under the surface, after hours I will contemplate about the the truth of that perception Afterall, we...
