I drink
to keep my steam
I blow a trick
watch me light
like a dynamite stick
along the borders
of our confined
and faded memories
I sit on the shoulder
of an endless highway
but there are no free
ways
O sublime and calcitrant death!
I am lost in a thousand sequined,
drains. Swallowing the milky water
of freedom
Though I miss the short,
flailing tongues
of a minister's dragon
at the pulpit of Cimarron

About Me
- Eric Michael Gibson
- Eric Gibson is an Baltimore, MD recording artist who writes, performs and produces his own unique brand of Alternative music. Eric was born in Richmond, VA, and raised in the mean streets of Gainesville, FL. He has been playing guitar, a variety of stringed instruments and keyboard since the early 90's. He has performed music, theatrical poetry readings, and performance art in venues all over Florida, DC, and Virginia.
His first exposure to Alternative music was when he was 13 after his parents gave him the Pixies album Bossanova they had gotten off of a subscription service. They had given it to him as a means of discarding it, but after hearing this strange new music Eric immediately decided he wanted to play guitar. After pleading with his parents they purchased a 30 dollar acoustic guitar at an Art Festival. When he had proven his natural ability, eagerness and willingness to learn he was given an electric guitar for Christmas the following year. He still uses the same guitar to record to this day.
