the eden geometry
Deep rift from the center of space
The cross of Henday, the axis displaced
Procession of equinox the long year count
Peruvian caves hidden refuge under mount...
Fulcanelli and the Gothic cathedrals divine
Alchemical wedding, the hermetic intertwine
"Nature renewed in fire", the Latin scribe the age
Biblical revelation, cosmic writing the page...
Iridium dust to flow from the angry sun mentor
Earthen conjunction with milky way center
Axis on right angles and resolution of time
Judgement to the soul to drink the heavenly wine...
Earth, Water, Air and Fire...
Aquarian age water bearer rising
Zodiac points to form the cardinal line
The spirit to fly, the soul to shine...
Winter solstice, the galactic alignment
Ancient sage speaks historical refinement
The point of consciousness, to rapture the tree
Rosy cross the Christ, all men on bended knee...
The only hope dispensation from time of the fish
Horus and Isis union to bring the future wish
Seek the math of Kabbalah, the Eden geometry
Release the grain of the mind, the mental astronomy...
The warning of temples built to worship the sun
Show hidden equalization, communion with the son...

One with the sun
watching from afar
moving outwards in space
world entombed by our star
this is our planets fate
come back to being
one with the sun
return to the beginning
chemical bonds are undone
we melt in the sun
everything is lost
our hopes and dreams
nothing more than dust
nothing more than dust (we are)
nothing more than dust (we become)
Nothing more than dust (we are)
nothing more than dust
moving outwards in space
world entombed by our star
this is our planets fate
come back to being
one with the sun
return to the beginning
chemical bonds are undone
we melt in the sun
everything is lost
our hopes and dreams
nothing more than dust
nothing more than dust (we are)
nothing more than dust (we become)
Nothing more than dust (we are)
nothing more than dust

The veil
Watching the swirling slow motion movement of the stars at night.
When i have a moment a chance to glance at space and time.
Dragged through a vision of a cosmic history and unbelievable time travel,
the moment, i stare up and the light touches my eye.
One star, in the lonely darkness of the night sky
Reaches or reached out a millennia ago to meet itself in another time, it millions of years ago...
Reached out into the dark of the abyss and searched for life
The veil seems a little broken, tattered tonight. Maybe i've lost my mind...

Shooting Stars
we are the
constellation
stronger than
the Orion’s belt
riding the bears
thrusting the
celestial sphere
just you and me
let’s dance in the
meteor showers
over the rings
of Saturn
a walk along
the milky way
hand in hand
shoot ourselves
across the galaxy
and wish upon
ourselves
you upon me
I upon you
and let them
wish upon us

Can You Cry in Space
Once you venture into the jar
there's no place left to go
as planets recede into dark matter.
Light years close in on me.
Every vein restricts, the heart
beats backwards, hair snaking
choking, floating beads of tears
quivering in the vacuum
reflected in visor and iris,
as eyes bulge and bleed,
turning to ruby gems,
sharp-angled
threading with my tears,
coiling around my neck and hands,
trying to fend them off.
Am I in a clinical waiting room
in a hell adrift, which has already
seen and been the death of me.
Through a portal, solar flares
rotating as the capsule
slowly tumbles, baseless.
As horizons slip away,
the only sound left:
the broken static from Houston.

Escape from Planet Microverse
Its porous surface of all-seeing eyes
with volcanic sties at polar ends,
from the erratic tug of satellites that scan
across the static of elliptical rings,
when spirit had released its
circle into a sea of impetus--
the will of force, to start and end
a journey past, and then begin again.
Traditional spells aside,
with much to abort and to abide,
to assuage the widow moon's bridge-keeper
with bribes of all that you promised her,
Lest you wade the murky depths in the
guise of an albino salamander,
avoiding consumption while traversing
the oily maze of surface fires
that block the way, and flotillas of
man-o-war jellyfish,
their tentacles rife with voltage
to your slithering genitalia.
And from the mantle of your blindness
you sense amid the current
a jagged danger on the far side
where brittle struts from bone of baleen
threaten to sabotage the integrity
of your shape-shifting escape.
Little-known the consequences.
No book of shadows to guide us,
nor the written divination of runes, or
reed scriptures from the after world.
The encryption simply reads that
there is nothing more, once it is begun.
