More About Me

What I want you to know about me...

What I am into:poetry/lyric writing,playing with music loops creating instrumentals and songs,philosophy, psychology, James Dean ,animals , music, singing. I watch lots of Amazon Prime video. I had netflix for years but they kept changing the subscription I had and I got tired of that so just quit it. I started writing poetry at age 9 and Tin Pan Alley in NYC wanted to use my lyrics to write music to create songs and my mom had to type out my lyrics for me which I was too young to know I need to keep a copy of...it cost money to do but they sent me coupons and my mom thought it was a scam so I had to pass. I fell into a band in the mid 80s. I had a movie theater friend who noticed I used to carry around my poetry notebook all the time that mentioned she had a room mate with a rock band with no words. I was like you can show them my notebook and if they like any of it they can use it. She told me the band wanted me to sit in on a rehearsal to see what they were doing with my lyrics. I went and found out their lead singer never showed up for rehearsals and they asked me to sit in with them like me sing the lyrics. I was like ya, why not....so I did and they asked me if I wanted to be in the band and I was like ya, sure, why not...and that is how I fell into the band. We only rehearsed together for like six months and had two gigs and then the band broke up. It was fun while it lasted. I have most of our songs on my youtube channel in a playlist. I used to bring my cassette player with me to rehearsals and the two gigs we did so the sound quality isn't great but it's all I got so I shared it. I have written thousands of poems over the years. I tried to share a lot of it here and new stuff as I write more. My current fave is called The Essence of Innocence. Find my creative links on my linktree https://linktr.ee/pamschwetz
I DELETED MY PHOTO CUZ IT WAS SO LARGE AND SO OLD FROM WHEN I FIRST JOINED THIS SITE. I TRIED TO JUST USE MY POP ART PHOTO I USE EVERYWHERE ELSE ONLINE BUT IT DIDNT TAKE SO OH WELL...I usually disable comments on my poetry cuz a weirdo on here was harrassing me. I never know what to say in reply for those anyway. It is interesting how magical poems are the way people read into them whatever they want to see or hear or that applies to them.They are all open to interpretation and that is pretty cool. Hope you enjoy what you read.
