The feathers of a bird,
as solemn as a willow resolving to endure it’s drought,
came apart at will. A spell. Ambrosia.
Tethered to a word,
we migrate to a pillow, resolving to assuage our doubt.
I came apart at will and held back nausea for an answer.
Before I briefly shoulder this bleeding heart,
I’ll let you know.
Reflections on the third:
a mirror in the heather revolves on its relentless route.
Upon approaching, light will compel the cornea.
Before I briefly shoulder this bleeding heart
I’ll let you know.

When all I ever want to do is settle in and sigh,
we endure and overanalyse.
Amiss amidst a vacant view, come to and beautify.
Oh, the time it took to realize.
To fly a bird may sing, enabling a tired wing
(ever following).
With a migratory need
I’d ultimately love to see a little clarity.
When all a body really needs is to follow on it’s line
and see its focus dim a thousand times.
I’m settled at my apogee: resolute and blind,
awaiting gravity to realign.
I want to know its use,
so settle down or fall into reverie in review.
Yearning for a guarantee,
the underlying irony providing clarity.
What if we don’t want it at all?
Why bind loose ties?
See the shadow eclipse my eyes.
Converge on sites so small,
concise, divine.
See the shadow eclipse my eyes.

Admiring subtleties: a mirror and a blanket.
Some analogies serve only as an object
to keep me around cycling.
Enduring novelty, drawn nearer by distraction
(the duller quality of ripples that dissolve and fade),
to sense a path settling.
Circumscribe
a blanket or a blind.
Mirroring a shoreline, embodied in its decline,
the caliber of exile is an image of its demise.
A pivot hidden inside memory’s mistaken shrine
relocates to recognize subtlety’s forsaken side.

Peak Ring Montreal, Québec
The music focuses on the interaction of melodies between parts.
Trying to fit in with favourite shoegaze/post-punk bands of the 80s and 90s, but never quite getting there. Trying to resist the urge to write rock riffs, but never quite abandoning them.
If you like Peak Ring, you may also like:
Cermony's Ross John Farrar experiments with synths, bass, & percussion to make music similar to that from the '80s homemade tape scene.
