Dweller in the dark, you’re lost inside,Continue reading Strange Lights – A Poem
Hidden between the shape of trees,
For you fear to be seen…
In this cavernous maze,
Full of shapes that lead astray.
Do you follow or do you stay?
When you let the crystal ball lead your way.
Into shadow, from abyss,
Out of fear—illumination,
By the strange lights in the dark…
Arianna: This song is another piece I’d composed some years back . It’s one that I came to write when I was thinking about how much society can pressure and shame people into feeling like they’re never good enough. And how it can travel down generationally, and we never question why things have to be a certain way. I hope you like this completed version of the song, much thanks to Avery for editing and putting it all together. Enjoy❤️
Arianna: Here is the recorded version of my original song: Beautiful Blameless. This is one of the first songs I composed, starting as a poem that I fashioned into a musical piece.

In total their will likely be 14 or more tracks, so keep an eye out, you will see the remainder of this project release hopefully this year. With another track definitely releasing in the next two weeks.
-Beauty is Magic-
Something beautiful unwraps the air
Cold like the morning Autumn breeze
As the birds sing an invitation to Winter
Waiting for the sunlight to warm our jaded heads from slumber
We desire to be innocent
To be the nature we admire
But as natural as breath
We fall into ourselves
As we are washed away by the colors
I want to gaze
Not with calcified eyes
But with unclouded judgment
Into the abyss that stares back
And from the dark of the mist
I accept the truth
That my eyes do not deceive
But are a looking glass
To nothing supernatural
But a spectacle as I now know
An acceptance of natural miracle
And a knowing that beauty is magic
~A Poem by Avery Nakashima~
Avery: My good friend Wil Gillete asked me to film for a video of him performing an original poem of his titled: Fear of Change. This was such a great experience trying to shoot by firelight, I was unsure of how it would turn out, but the visual was astonishing! Never have I worked in such dark conditions like this before, but I came prepared with a large aperture camera lens… That being a cheap 35$ lens I bought off of Amazon! Shocking! I know! But it did the trick with my Sony ZV-E10!
The Lens I used is called the Fotasy 35mm Manual E-mount lens and for such a cheap deal this lens was fantastic to work with!
Avery: Recently I made a short film with my good friend Sean Seid, a wonderful poet and creative spirit. The concept & vision for the film is all Sean’s, with me behind the camera. The film is called “A Moment of Stillness” You can check out the film on Sean’s IG page and also on Youtube.
