scarlet and gold in your eyes the sight: wounds moons curled into you the daggers of autumn burning out a way through the mountain misery but i'm not okay cities must fall first, symbols invert first then call forth hurricanes to wipe our memory memory, no memory daggermouthed one, you found me deep in misery before the sun sets i'll fire the world in ecstasy

about

October Diary is a writing project (part journal, part prose poetry) that I undertook in October of 2017 on a whim, tangled up in depression and hope. Although I've printed copies before, I've never truly "released" it publicly until now. Here it is, along with two tracks from around the same time of my life as the diary. October Diary is the spiritual predecessor to my album Lunarch Journal, which will be released on October 31st, 2020.

Note: this is primarily an ebook. When you download this album, a PDF of October Diary will be included. The two songs here weren't originally conceived as being part of October Diary at all, but they are closely related to me emotionally and come from a similar place within.

"real happiness should induce a vertigo. real happiness should not quell, real happiness should travel the channel of impossible physics, or embody a limitless horde of bell-heaving reindeer. real happiness does not exist. we will find it, i know we will. i cannot wait to lie next to you again, or for the first time, in the eviscerated cadaver of malaise. in the snow, in the fairy tale contentment."
