What Is Left
05:07
|

is this what is left
of paradise
a parody of water
leaves you looking
for times
you never had
you never will
for here and now
the only truth you'll ever know
it goes ashes to ashes cast to the vastness
the past is a wheel spinning backwards
the future is fast on a crash course path coming at us
I laugh at the madness
the world in a clash with the savage nature of man
via natural disasters
perhaps it’s a last ditch attempt just to let it all pass
and collapse into blackness
the rain full of acid an ocean of tears
we all stay afloat on this boat made of fear
the air full of smoke I see hope in the rear-
view mirror she’s close but she’s never so near
as the next essential catastrophe
existential crisis and casualty
so perform all your rituals charge up your crystals
prepare for the rapture and rhapsody
is this what is left
Im still here
of paradise
I want nothing
but everything
in the glance of a whole heart
plucked from the eons of madness
masters of destiny
wade in the vastness
free me from entropy
faith without fear
the fate to create and for love to appear
opening breathlessly
future lets go
the past holds no flame
to the moment you know
nothing is something that makes you feel whole
the soul of your being beyond your control

Don't Wake Me Up
04:08
|
|||
nothing of matter
will make its way through
the mysterious space
between me and you
the silence of atoms
that we cant see
and the depth of true oneness
is what sets us free
and when you offer up your love to all
if dreaming is waking
I’ve come to realize
the time we are taking
is ours to devise
for when you offer up your love
you are already there
don't wake me up
I don't wanna know
everything that I dreamed was impossible
don't wake me up
I don't wanna see
all the chaos the world has to offer me
don't wake up up I don't wanna hear
reality whispering in my ear
don't wake me up
I don't wanna feel
everything I dream was not for real
Yo, I’m on my rip van winkle
slippin' into bed like a quicksand sinkhole
day trippin' John Paul Georgie and Ringo
making up my lingo like a bing dang dingo
ha I’m counting sheep I gets to one two snoozing
with a pocket fulla teeth that I keep on losing
I’m dream weaving on the loom of illusion
a deep sleep beacon through the gloom and the ruins
whew, I keep grooving till I’m blue in the lips
as I drift through the rift right into the abyss
I stay in tune with the mystic got the moon in my grips it’s
cocooned in my fist like a lunar eclipse
I move quick down to Finnegan's wake
& skip a stone across the lake to make ya cinnamon shake
I’m like a pig in a blanket when I’m taking a nap
I’ll take a map cuz I ain’t making it back!!

Piranhagon
04:47
|
|||
it’s the lion the witch and the warship
the penguin is mightier than the swordfish
each morning hits like a horse kick
coffee and cigarettes, cancer and hornets
doomsday delivered straight to your doorstep
it’s a dark forest kid keep ya torch lit
I’m all for it, your all forfeit
forked tongue two horns on his forehead
somber in the moment we see
far away the city looks serene
but inside the walls
there lives the slowly dying
veins to earth wither
while ancestors sighing
distracted syncopated mind flashes
a strobe of media streams in your ether
holes in your aura
you forget your power
purpose is fleeting
inside someone else’s dream
born passive in a body that breathes
bound together pieces form reality
what is your birth right
are you your own
or do you just move the flesh of a machine
the sky is always falling
the future's always coming
destiny’s always calling
that’s why I hit the ground running
we need to wake to the true self
the one who moves our being
the one whose freedom is
the life force
with just a spool of thread he navigates the labyrinth
get the gold but don’t agitate the dragon
we want a life fulla Saturdays and satin
keeping genies trapped in ya magic lamp Aladdin
the bad men always kick you when ya down
till the last dark day when they stick you in the ground
when kingdom comes, he gon’ listen to the sound
while the suicide sword cold glistens in his crown
look around, the world is a piranhagon
you gotta keep your armor on and your karma strong
don’t plod along when you wander on the autobahn
or you can join the long-forgotten gods in the Parthenon
thumbs up as they handed us the bandages
like good luck but he manages the damages
and learns to trust the advantages he brandishes
to wake the world up before he vanished into amethyst
crystalline delirium deceives
disbelief thoughts would ever leave
but inside your cells
is sown a sense of feeling
silence is written
a void worth revealing
what’s hidden in the question whose answer
is forever this now and no other
off to discover
a surrogate mother
for the hope that we’d lost
to a tenacious prophecy
find a passion that fills you fully
that is what makes your reality
you are the only
one who can be
the ruler of your mind body machine
the sky is always falling
the future's always coming
destiny’s always calling
that’s why I hit the ground running
we need to wake to the true self
the one who moves our being
the one whose freedom is
the life force

Kora Borealis
03:53
|

time like waves on a beach
it’s the year of the virus the age of the thief
still the only time he gazed at defeat
he was shaking his head as it laid at his feet
his heartbeat plays on repeat
as the clock tick tocks off the days into weeks
his thoughts stay vague and discreet
but the years on his face he displays to the streets
all the dandelions raise from their seats when he speaks
even ghosts start to hang up their sheets
he tries to practice what he patiently preached
as the decades pervade, he’s a vein to a leech
every moment just food for the feast
every molecule moves to the beat
he only ever keeps the truth in his teeth
cuz the wisdom is worth all the youth it depletes
if we are all magic
then what has become
of love -lost its tragic
can fate come undone
is there but one
an all-knowing sun
unending passion
in every photon
no one will wait for you
no promise in time
indiscriminate thief
no stop no rewind
when one is to leave
your soul to bereave
forever we weave
broken threads
to achieve
some symphony brilliantly begging infinity
entrusting divinity’s willful epiphany
silently imagery auspiciously came to me
mysterious alchemy graciously free
time like thoughts fly away
its the year of forgetting
the age of dismay
still the only time she feigned a retreat
she was making amends, an abyss on repeat
her heartbeat sings bittersweet its relentless devotion
to that which it keeps
the waves stay the clock of the sea
as the years disappear effortlessly
all the aspirations fade to the void
but the truth of the moment is never destroyed
she holds space for forever to ends
when the sun like black hole we implode and transcend
every star seed here with a vision
every sorcerers premonition
we only want to keep the notion alive
that though we are leaving we may never arrive

Hereafter
03:43
|
|||
how to slow time
watch the sunrise
fill your day with many changes
stay aware
when trouble comes face it
gotta relax
but don’t be complacent
nor covet material
can always replace it
back to us
calling
hereafter
come to
center
find
me
in you
a mirror
held outward
here we are
a new
head down in grace
ingrained
peaceful post beauty disdain
make haste
no waste
what we do might matter none
but live like it does
vigilant confidence limitless
omnipotence found in benevolence
we beholden to cosmic chance
and this
moment no other will ever be
how to stay true
quiet the outside
find your mind and let it rest too
feel your heart the only way through
live to enjoy
don’t lose your love view
be the light
is all we can do
back to us
calling
here after
come to
center
find
me
in you
a mirror
held outward
here we are
a new
head down in grace
ingrained
peaceful post beauty disdain
make haste
no waste
what we do might matter none
but live like it does

Lotus Leaf
04:34
|
|||
I'm feeling no relief, caught between the cobras teeth
even As I slowly roll a spleef inside this lotus leaf
I wanna go to sleep somewhere in the ocean deep
on a coral reef where the cameras fail to notice me
although it’s brief, the journey lasts a lifetime
the darkest depths are what really let the light shine
the lowest lows they wont show you
all the heights climbed
I guess ya gotta stay focused on the skyline
I dodge a death wish like it’s my morning stretches
and do it all before I eat breakfast
I’m feeling no regrets even when I’m soaking wet
floating in the ocean yet I’m choking with a broken neck
my life’s an open debt that death herself she won’t collect
And if she does upon Elysian Fields our souls connect
they deal a deck of primordial slop
so bet the farm on what afford I cannot
but before I could stop
they brought the sword to my Gordian knot
or whatever gonna forward the plot
more often than not
I solved the riddle of the universe once
and I got it done before I served lunch
the whole world in your mind
your adventurous kind
always behind but
time finds fractures to hide
illustrious soul battles in kingdoms for signs
if the past is corrected in peaceful defeat
earths exit an afterlife retreat you seek
speak in a riddle to keep quiet the chaos mystique
I’m feeling no remorse walking thru these open doors
even as I grab my cloak and torch they try to slow my course
I rode a horse through the desert with a blank space
emblazoned on his name plate
while Satan’s agents gave chase
I’m saving grace like some pennies in a wishing well,
I play with fates but ain’t never gonna kiss and tell
escaped the wizards spell, a prison cell and living hell
and did it well before a single dinging of the dinner bell
*ding
well, well well well ...
well I’ll be counting every star, then I’ll get right back
for a night cap and midnight snack
like that

Blood on the Blade
03:28
|
|||
the boys all feathers and lead
some say better off dead or forever in bed
the girls all gone but not forgot
and for what still caught up in all your thoughts
the days all gray’s ok
cuz the rain gon’ come and wash it all away
the nights all right too, haiku
but he’s never known poetry like you
a sonnet
the words of my dna
harmonic
through the eyes and I belayed
the muse runs
circles a line
eluding
mortal flesh for soul to find
and when they come around
all that you can do
is feel
in grateful revelry
like it would be your last
reward for being ready
to receive
earth hath three of space and one of time
and when there’s no more love to be made well
I’ll cheers to the brave with the blood on their blade
like here’s to the day when the mud on the spade
meets the hole in the earth where they dug you a grave
we used to paint gods face on the cave
and play with the way time and space is arranged
now it’s all in a state of decay
patiently gracefully wasting away... (and when I’m gone)
well put my ashes in an hourglass and
forget whatever happens in the aftermath
make a raft with the feathers from a kaiju
let it fly true climb high through the sky blue
I’m tryna find a black hole to slide through
birds eye view never looking back behind you
I write a haiku
dimensions don’t confine you
you’re being lied too
earth hath three of space and one of time
“Like as the waves make towards the pebbl'd shore,
So do our minutes hasten to their end;
Each changing place with that which goes before,
In sequent toil all forwards do contend.”

Gravity Overture
01:48
|

to navigate the captivated gravity we resonate:
overtures with latent lines
wordless be the heart
constellation skies defined
defying fortunes left behind
to face the grace of fate alone
and live a life of art

Sun Come Dawn
03:34
|
|||
oceans promise shores return
for moon the glow on snow we yearn
in brightness under whom we churn
like waves the same at days adjourn
break crash burn
rise new fly
magnify purify
simplify third eye standing by
I see Mercury in retrograde
I see Venus in the sky playing center stage
I see Mars among the stars with a redder shade
as Earth waits for those better days that never came
I see king Jupiter with his many moons
I’ll read the runes on Saturn’s rings when I’m ready to
while Neptune and Uranus spell impending doom
for little Pluto, pariah of the petting zoo
the long view of last star fighter
a heart fulla vipers sharks and barn spiders
these dark nights ignite my spark brighter
to shed a little light, breath life and start fires
he’s so tired but he trudges on
and he judges not cuz the love is strong
the heart pumps on till the blood is gone
like the moon & the stars when the sun come dawn...
there is no where that i can be
alone

Castle
03:38
|
|||
i have
always
in all my optimistic years
finding vacant hearts
lonely in the castle
wholly hoped hereafter
I
wallow in rivers
wade in sorrows
lonely in the castle
waiting for reply
what guiding force moves through
your veins from mind to limbs
when calling for an answer
darkened windows making dim
what you’d already known
{my optimistic dream
vacant hearts
lonely in the castle
wallow in rivers
wade in sorrows
lonely in the castle}
the throne is a lonely place
the only place for those who make no mistakes
and the shoulders that hold the weight
of the crown gon’ ache till the backbone breaks
in the castle as cold as space
in the kingdom of mold and waste
we play the jesters with golden grace
never licked the spoon but we know the taste...
and I just wanna hold ya face and
feed ya apples like the oldest snake and
maybe undermine the whole charade
until the end of time when our souls escape
it weren’t a race till they told us wait
now we going straight through those open gates
it’s time to awake from this coma state
because your Dreams ain’t supposed to be lowercase no
till the end of time
where we all started out
over and over
we will
fall apart
because there is no space for
wallow in the rivers
wade in the sorrows
lonely in the castle
careful what your after

Eternal Heart
04:24
|
|||
when we once
were waiting in the ether
to tell our story in the flesh
you said
“come find me
in the earthen forests
I will appear to you like magic
so seamless you will mistake me
leave me for a path that fades
once you’ve clear eyes to see
and then you will miss me”
I asked “then how do I come back?”
you say nothing at all
“why is it always to feel more
from the garden we fall?”
I can not for one be only
this woman, born in freedom
yet for the sacred passing
of the soul- we would redeem then
you will if written I’d imagine
shall I feel the weight of blame
when the devil disguised as love
rips us from this timeline in pain
nothing cast a shadow dark as
love lost to words wed thought true
but I know no other of the same
stardust as me and you
time is an illusion it’s sold to us
but I can not escape
there is no past I can touch
what then is the way together?
you tell me “do not regret
there is nothing the eternal heart will forget”
Now I don’t know about destiny
But it seems like some things was meant to be
And I could never tell fact from fiction nah
But I can feel that magnetism uh huh
And I don’t know if we belong together but
Well I could sing this song forever huh
Cuz soulmates can be hard to find
But once in a lifetime the stars align

Eye of the Storm
02:54
|
|||
pulled from the eye of a storm
the lucky life awake, awaits
the calm and ancient form
can never be erased
with what volition
what deeper mission
reuniting molecules
ancient chemistry
as magician
whose ignition is admission
thus this acquisition sits in composition with an
intuition as innate emission
within tradition
yes this ambition’s opposition
love lifts the veil of definition
so walk the water wish in optimism’s inhibition
that free will could never circumvent this coalition

Achilles' Helix
05:34
|
|||
which side of the coin
would carry the burden
believing that love was
undeniably certain
confined to the wake of divine
divided in darkness a sign
signified blood lines and knowers of thine
all sinners dowsing
the fleeting fault line
she’s all daisies and basil and fragrance
the last perfect puzzle piece I’m placing adjacent
I gaze in her eyes with those hazel striations
surprised how she flies in the face of creation
our lips graze and the entire skies ionized
our nets catch all the falling stars and fireflies
if she’s the deep sea then I’ll be old Ironsides
steer me to the rocks yea I need to hear the sirens cries
lives align
echos refined
in a helix
a magnet
two snakes entwine
I could walk on water
I could walk on fire
I could walk on air
I couldn’t get no higher
I could walk the earth
until I'm old and tired
if that’s what it takes to find her
(as long as i can do it beside her)
cause I’m her shadow on the wall
I’m her echo down the hall
I’m her reflection in a lake
I’m every impression that she makes
I’m the voices in her head
I’m the snake skin that she shed
I’m her foot prints in the snow
I follow her anywhere she goes
even hell below
which promise would leave
in despair the naive
who’d let their whole world
be distilled to a dream
confined to the whim of desire
worthy the chance it requires
for never to have held a fraction its prize
would leave eternity empty inside
she’s all danger and brazen temptation
a strange purple haze made of paisley and patience
a vague violet veil masquerading what’s vacant
a void hollow space that a heart used to hang in
he makes moves through the gloom & the grief like a thief
always doomed to pursue what retreats, on repeat
so chase the gazelle ain’t no breaking the spell
till the snake gets his tail in his beautiful teeth
I could walk on water
I could walk on fire
I could walk on air
and couldn’t get no higher
I could walk the earth
until I’m old and tired
if that’s what it takes to find her
(as long as I can do it beside her)
cause I’m her shadow on the wall
I’m her echo in down hall
I’m her reflection in a lake
I’m every impression that she makes
I’m the voices in her head
I’m the snake skin that she shed
I’m her foot prints in the snow
I follow her anywhere she goes
even hell below
even hell below
had I had my own
I wouldn’t even ask for another
had I had my own

Broken Dreams
04:48
|
|||
ill as a chemical spill
revenge of the tentacles tendrils and gills
the bigger the headache the better the pill
but wait till they bring you the medical bill
I’m ready to build, they burning it down
I head for the hills, they turn me around
like give me a reason I’ll give you a thousand
I’ll paint you a picture create you the fountain of youth
truth, I’ll make you a portal
straight through a wormhole to make you immortal,
proof, the burden is yours to provide me
the future is hurdling towards you at light speed then poof
too late, quantum mechanical waves in a lake
eighth dimensional ripples in space
a glitch in the matrix
quick get to the spaceship we’re slipping away
escape today with nothing left behind besides the wake
my dreams are only broken cause I played with them so rough
to have them and to hold them ain't enough
I had to test they boundaries
and break 'em in a thousand pieces
just to see if I can call they bluff
a coffin for my heart beats hollow in the grave
built of memories the captive fruitless maze
who wants to be
at the death of a dream -
the gift of life bestowed to me
I am meant a vessel for the very building blocks of souls
the more I breathe the more is born of cosmic ever whole
erase your steps upon the next
endlessly your purpose vexed
my dreams are only broken cause i played with them so rough
to have them and to hold them aint enough
i had to test they boundaries
and break em in a thousand pieces
just to see if i can call they bluff
