World Of Dreams
Dreams,an unusual place.
Full of wonder,full of grace.
Full of characters of all kinds.
As we travel inside our minds.
And you never know what you will find.
You sail away in your bed,asleep.
And you explore the dream world,very deep.
As you fly,swim or simply dream away.
And your true self,in a dream will never decay.
It's like looking in a mirror,that points out your insecurities.
You lay down in your bed as all your worries go away.
And you take a plane to another dimension.
Full of memories and people,old...
Full of wonder,full of grace.
Full of characters of all kinds.
As we travel inside our minds.
And you never know what you will find.
You sail away in your bed,asleep.
And you explore the dream world,very deep.
As you fly,swim or simply dream away.
And your true self,in a dream will never decay.
It's like looking in a mirror,that points out your insecurities.
You lay down in your bed as all your worries go away.
And you take a plane to another dimension.
Full of memories and people,old...

Nebula Hacienda (Alt/Cut)
Hard desert against an ocean dried by age
Salt sizzles by your heat
A little red; much lavender; deep yellow tickles
Passionflower dances ‘fore my eyes
In your beige fractals I bathe
Eventual rain after eons
Torrents—they cry, they cry—stirs
Exhausts ecstatic electricity
Extreme elevation of elation—explosion—exit
Descent—darkness dawn
Souvenir—scraped, scrounged
I lay still on a grassly bed of you
Red wine veins, morning shines—Shaman
New fire light conjures frenzied tongues
Chanting ecstatic lores toward Devil’s tower ...

To The Moon
Collected, this land
Of uncommon whims
We fought, we rot
Stairs we climbed
—and then we didn’t
Like an ant hill made
Like a line we walked
Red ants—industrial still
Not red though
We saw, we dreamt
Out into heavens
We built—oh we built
Rust removed from life
And machines alike
We tried and we failed
But tonight while I look
At the sky—it is my sky
For you look back on me
A part of my soil
Largeness of my soul
From the Moon afar
Lasso of our science
Brought this satellite ...
Of uncommon whims
We fought, we rot
Stairs we climbed
—and then we didn’t
Like an ant hill made
Like a line we walked
Red ants—industrial still
Not red though
We saw, we dreamt
Out into heavens
We built—oh we built
Rust removed from life
And machines alike
We tried and we failed
But tonight while I look
At the sky—it is my sky
For you look back on me
A part of my soil
Largeness of my soul
From the Moon afar

A Queen Appears
How brilliant this rainbow strikes
Off a bed of post gloom
Wrinkled by ululation’s answer
Cold sweat and sleepless nights
Ends with downpour
After—the sky has opened
Pathways to heaven exposed
Straight roads of gold and brass
And silver and jade
All sapphire we know
With ruby burn slow and fade to night
Amber, she giggles, a honeytrap touch
I watch them colors feed hard the bleak
Into grey—then a denim umbrella
And stars appear—a warm up act
To the main event I safely lay,
All in submission, bow down

Perseid
Auriga, Jupiter, and a crescent moon
Owned a very early eastern sky
As lowly hung the Dipper's northern spoon
With a brace of meteors blasting by!
And Cassiopeia, above it all,
Was regal on her meridian throne
Watching stars shoot in their final fall
Of plasma transmutation from stone!
The Pleiades, so coquettishly aglow
As seven stellar sisters so divine,
Embraced my mortal psyche, so far below,
With the sibling light of their rise and shine...
First to withdraw into daybreak's beams
Of Aurora mastering...

Saturn Through a Telescope
Saturn through a telescope
is bite sized,
like something you could scoop up from a bowl
with a spoon
Saturn's rings through a telescope
look like a little Hula hoop
or like the part of a plastic Saturn toy
a toddler would grip
Saturn through a low-powered telescope
does a bit of a hula itself
before coming into view
But then there it is.
As you peer into the telescope,
it's a portal to a two dimensional object
But for some
its a portal
to questions that form at the speed of light. ...

Blake Hole
fifteen seconds at the speed of light from here
there is a deserted rock, empty and abandoned
which has roamed the universe for eternity.
planet nothing is the name of this crystal stone
but everyone just calls it home bitter home
everyone pretends not to squander the little one.
all the inhabitants are proud enough to forget
that are just the beings on the smooth surface
of a tiny grain of sand in the ocean of stars.
the universe follows its course towards the navel
in an eternal self-referential dream so atheistic ...

The Black Hole Dragon
Sonifications
From another place
V404 Cygni
X-ray light echoes
Sounds emitting
From deep space
The black hole
Noise
No choice
Like a sleeping dragon
Stirring
One misty eye
Half open
A raging fire
For now
Doused
Whilst awaiting
A rekindled spouse
To kiss the flame
Of a re-awakening

a field of enigmatic proportions

a collusion of some faraway gods

Space Lullabies
I saw the starless look in your eyes.
I saw you were sad,so I sang you lullabies.
About space,the universe and planets.
About your beautiful moonlight shine.
I turned my head around and admired your glow.
The glow you have even if there is snow.
Your voice sounded like an angelic lullaby the day you confessed to me.
My heart fluttered and I told you I will never leave.
And you told me all I have to do is believe.
With gentle words,you made my happiness grow.
And when you are with me,I see your presence glow.

Galaxies
I want to see all the galaxies
Let’s fly away to infinity
A cosmic wonder that goes on for eternity
So come fly with me
Set yourself free and come fly with me.
Let’s fly away to infinity
A cosmic wonder that goes on for eternity
So come fly with me
Set yourself free and come fly with me.

Until We Are Gone
around and around and around and around
never an ending, never a sound
never a stop, never standing still
thought streams in eddie's beginning to spill
just like the Sun in the galaxy
Earth hanging on as off we all flee
swirling through space while spinning around
around and around and around and around -
up and down up and down up and down up and down
emotional moments in which we can drown
always rising, then ebbing away
emotion's an ocean In which to play
loving you loving me loving you loving me
