This show is about more than the state of our world. It is about the state of our hearts. Acrobat was more than a critique of Trump; it was a critique of our spirits. It was introduced with desire and the wheel of the seven deadly sins for a reason. Remember, we the audience are chided for...
I considered myself a 'young fan' when I first joined. I think I've been on Interference for over half of my life! I discovered the site during my Sophomore year of college and now I'm 39...eek.
In 2007, I had just married my husband of 11 years and was pursuing a Masters in English LIterature. I was obsessed with U2 and music in general and probably listened to music an average of 2 hrs a day. Politically, I leaned left in many areas but considered myself Pro-Life. Back then, it...

I have been a U2 fan for nearly half of my 35 year old life at this point. I listened to them when I was five years old and my mom loved War and I discovered them for myself during my senior year of high school. Their music gave me a tool to talk to and try to understand God even during times...

Jesus may have walked on water
but did his soles ever caress the sable golden silk of Taiwan's eastern shores?
I wonder if his toes ever teased its basalt grains
as the ocean lapped it up.
Its tongue a Labrador retriever returning God's rubber ball
carrying the silky crumbs back to our beginnings.
The Ether
I grew sick.
Exhausted by all the programmed tongues
Repeating sound lacking sense
Blaring scripts which feigned light and hope
But only bandaged my tears and gashes
So I didn’t just let go. I unlatched every tether.
Each fractured rope- every sweet scented deceit
I hoped to unearth...
U2 were definitely a college band for me. I got into them on my own during the end of my senior year of high school and saw them play as a high school graduation present (popmart). The next year I fell in love with the group and by November of 1997, I had a tape or cd of every major album...
Overshadowing implantations
Heard it was a Roman soldier
You know how they are.
Overshadowing implications
Honestly poor Joseph
You don’t think he’ll believe her story?
Overshadowing imaginations
Happened in a dream you say?
Angels told him she was true...
U2 is my favorite music artist of all time, but I am not sure that they are the best. Honestly, U2 are one of the few remaining secular artists on my IPOD. I recognize that there are many excellent bands and singers out there, but I find myself placing more emphasis on the themes and values of...
Collide.
Who is this man with twin mirrors
reflecting the Ethiopian sky
His eyes like the Jordan River?
Staring my lens into submission
blinding me with the glare.
He bares a rosary on his breast
Stumbling away from rock n roll divinity
recalling the slain at her altar.
He grasps at an...
