Technically we make nothing new, we only mix together previous influences from childhood or current experiences or ideas based on those influences. So my list of influences would be endless but I will list my favorite conscious influences:
Music (specifically: emery, sufjan stevens, radiohead, bright eyes, snow patrol, jars of clay, david crowder band)
Movies (specifically: eternal sunshine of the spotless mind, donnie darko, 28 days later, 12 monkeys, v for vendetta, the number 23, stir of echoes, princess mononoke)
Life (specifically: Jesus Christ, sociology, psychology, quantum physics, religions)

Brick by Brick
She wears a stained glass dress. / And shimmers like a rainbow, iridescent. / The light shines in distorted, / Just the way she likes it. / She is far from holy and farther from wholly there. / This u…
Polished Box
I am the ashes of your fallen hero. / So tightly held by wood and metal. / Personal / Funeral. / A daily reminder of every bleeding failure, / A monument to all of your regrets. / Words never spoken. …
