Blood Into Wine: Must See

Maynard James Keenan makes wine.

Seriously.

"The trick is to eliminate the risk and I guess the point is that there were grapes grown in Arizona."

- M.J.Keenan 

What kept you going?. ((They asked.))

- "The investment.  You put so much time and money into it.  What are you going to do?  Walk away before you actually see what happens?  There is just no way I’m going to walk away from this.  My entire life is poured into this.  Everything I have earned is poured into the ground here."

Has it been spiritually satisfying to you, this whole process?. ((They asked.))

"Yes.  Planting anything and watching it grow or watching it not grow... it definitely affects you on some level always."

"And the largest battle is from people who don’t understand how much this is going to benefit the community.  People that are resistant to change and don’t realize that the house is on fire and we can’t be quibbling over whether or not you wiped your feet or not."

- M.J.Keenan

"Whatever grape is going into a bottle whatever that final blends ends up being, now it’s time to name it because I’m the storyteller and artist.

I will then listen to what’s coming from the bottle, what’s coming from the glass, and I’ll construct a story that will best describe this larger idea."

- M.J.Keenan

Caduceus Cellars

M.J.Keenan descends from Northern Italian winemakers. 

While the winery is named after caduceus, an ancient symbol for commerce and staff of the Greek god Hermes, the vineyard is named Merkin Vineyards, after a pubic wig. 

Caduceus' first wine, the limited edition Primer Paso (2004, 2005, 2006), sold out, and was followed by a Nagual de la Naga (2004, 2005, 2006) and a Nagual del Sensei (2004, 2005). Later wines include the Nagual de la Naga (2004, 2005, 2006), Merkin Vineyards Chupacabra (2005, 2006), Merkin Vineyards Shinola (2006), Nagual del Judith (2007), and Sancha (2007).

"I'm an extremely intense and passionate person and I invest myself fully into every endeavour I undertake. Physically, emotionally, and most importantly, spiritually."

- M.J.Keenan

"My job now is to LOSTEN, As if a medium, to every detail no matter how subtle and present her story unaltered. Wish me luck."

- M.J.Keenan

"I trust my intuition. It drew me here. And it just happens, no surprise to me, that my favourite wines come from areas around the world with similar traits to Northern Arizona."

- M.J.Keenan

Wine Review for 2005 Merkin Vineyards Chupacabra

"A true breakfeast wine if there ever were one."

Don't Leave

Dear Bernard,

if you leave me now, I will not find the love again...

So please, stay.

Dear Bernard,

The solitude is lost. Do you know from where to look?.

"Look from under the bed. Do you see those hungry eyes of love?. They are your passion." 

you will say.

Yours Truly,

The Forgotten Child.

Hush, little Angel, hush.

A silence, all there is - a silence.

Nothing is golden about it, nor silver.

It has no shape, nor words.

Just... silence.

Everlasting.

Hush.

In the middle of this mum space,

a little angel is sitting on the stool.

Those roots have passed the hole in this soul.

And the small lips in everlasting scream.

Everlasting.

Scream.

Do you know to where this road takes you?.

Angel, little Angel, do you know, do you know?.

No one knows.

And no one has the imagination for this hell.

How long there is more to take it?.

To bear...

...we would love to leave this place.

Away from this suffer.

Too pure is this soul.

Angel, little Angel, did you know, did you know?.

You cry your tears, bitter as acid, 

when your words have taken someone's pride.

And they have no idea...

...how much you really suffer....

Picture from here: Silence

I am nothing as she spoke. 

I am gone in my own delusional matters. 

One cup mulled wine have given me the peace back. 

Where are you?. What is your name?.

Where are you?. Are you alive?.

Over my heart, there is a hurt.

And when she told me those words, the tree in me crashed in this storm.

Since then.

Since then it has bled.

*

You can call it a "love". 

Full of bitter and challenges, that never will exist, anyhow.

There is no use for me. No use, don't lie. No use.

I live only 4 myself, and even then, I waste it away.

There are others, saying what should be done.

Don't hesitate, my child. This is just game.

You are winning it.

Just send them all into the hell.

You ARE winning it.

*

Last times we spoke. 

There was promising energy on one side,

and the other offered only silence.

And still... there is no noise.

"You don't mean a shit to me anymore."

Her words in the plain view.

*

This life is mine, and no one else's.

Not Yours, not Theirs. 

MINE.

After the lack of alcohol in my brain and body,

I will take the tranquilizer and fall into the depths of silent sleep.

There is silence, in me. And it will be, forevermore.

Humor

You know you live in 2008 when...

1.) You accidentally enter your password on the microwave.

2.) You haven't played Solitare with real cards in years.

3.) The reason for not staying in touch with your friends is that they don't have a screen name or myspace.

4.) You'd rather look all over the house for the remote instead of just pushing the button on the TV.

6.) Your boss doesn't even have the ability to do your job.

7.) You read this list and keep nodding and smiling.

8.) As you read this list, you think about sending it to your friends.

9.) And you were too busy to notice that #5 is missing.

10.) You actually scroll up to check...

11.) And now you laugh at your own stupidity.

12.) Put this in your journal if you fell for it. You know you did...
