The lore

Some keys were made to break.

Off-Key is for the ones who hum a different tune: the writers, players, painters and night-wanderers who never quite fit the song everyone else was singing. Our mark is a key that snapped, because a broken key still opens something. Usually something more interesting.

  • Draguda (2017)


    As we stole our way into the mountains
    We had molten our fears and despairs
    We stood apart and refused to walk in pairs.
    We became Mad Men too familiar with pain

    The loud howl came from within,
    And our poor souls immediately grew thin.
    The myth was real or so we gazed,
    In the cold heat we shivered and freezed.

    She looked surreal and big,
    With grace did she pace her keep.
    We still hoped for a glimpse to catch,
    Covering our mouths with limbs we watched.

    She flapped one great wing and the other,
    Draguda, the black furred daughter of thunder.
    Her long slender tail with a sword on it's tail,black-furred
    Flailed it's way about in the dark cave.

    Her eyes were red like the fire she spat,
    Her Wolf nose shone, it was coral white.
    Her dark furred body was always silhouetted,
    As she spread her eagle wings against the sky at
    Night.

    After we left the keep of myth,
    After we saw Her Majesty move with grace and
    Power.
    We were never the same.
    When we returned home, we were gilded,
    We just met the myth, we just met with legend.
  • Snapped

    they said the key was broken,
    so I kept it anyway.
    turns out a crooked thing
    still opens up the day.

  • 3 a.m. Draft

    the moon reads over my shoulder
    and pretends it isn't judging
    every line I cross out.
