LOST AT SEA (1983; Laguna Beach, California)
screaming clarity
intrigues my sinewy mind
as air flows in and out of me
feeling how all things bind
as this crystalline day around me
so sensuously explores
my outer and inner
living body and being
so sweetly
so sensuously
pore by pore
as sun s warm golden solar palm
gently touches and caresses
this great living conscious
spinning vessel
of our wondrous
sacred mother earth
with it s fiery heart s light
reflective
of my very soul
oh soul of my soul

Loss of Inspiration
In the abyss of the deep, only grey matter reflected.
My breath was swept away by a witch's broom.
Secrets of dust were under a rug.
Astonishment took over like a surprise.
Magical, a flying carpet goes over my head, like deception.
The spell of time enthralled me with its flickering eminence of expiration.
My candle was hidden and about to burn out.
Hands on the wall, 6 o'clock, my attention was arrested.
Straight up and down, a power broadcast.
The thief in the night came and ransacked.
My captivated spirit. ...

The Flea Trainer
The Flea Trainer
I can see fleas on tiny seesaws,
sitting tiny swings that sway,
contented and bored to just pass the time.
How came they conditioned this way?
First, put the fleas within a jar
then place the lid on top.
The fleas will jump and jump and jump
hitting glass and lid with knocks
and after a while the muscles condition
the jump to avoid the pain
of colliding with lid and glass so hard
over and over again.
You can remove the lid. Let out the fleas,
even put them on swings that sway. ...

Dog Stories and Other Oddities of Fate
Walking my dog Onyx this morning
An hour later than usual
Hit the pavement at 7am
Usually out the door at 6am plus or minus
First dog we engage with is a BIG poodle
Jet black and wearing a cone
Just got spayed yesterday
Dog's name is Sunday
My first city rescue dog is pictured here
Her name was Sunday, we changed it
Ginger became her name
I named her after Ginger on Gilligan's Island A beauty for a beauty
I tell the owner black dogs rule
We chat and I move on ...

ENTHEOGENESIS, A CHANGA TRIP
It was the second calling from the sacred spirit molecule. The first calling, years ago, resulted into a smooth exciting initiation with me going just across the nearest dimension without any interaction.
A tiny sachet of magic greenery was yet to be burnt in the triangle shaped pocket of a black bong.
I tried to make myself comfortable but my heart rate was too high. That was weird, because I always approach any psychedelic experience with curiosity and joy but with no expectation, picturing it as a blank paper that is about to be drawn. But this time it was different. Panic...

Alien kidnapping, or was it Chapter 31
Alien kidnapping, or was it
Chapter 31
Sam watched the progress of those with him; he had to go much slower as he and Thantas were the only ones who opened the wormholes. Then again, Thantas wasn't that used to it as she'd only done it twice. She still wasn't projecting as much power as was needed to get more than a few million miles.
He was thankful that he could accommodate all of them. He thought that the more they used it, the stronger and stronger they became.
With another look at those with him, he could see that no matter what, his sister Thantas...

Alien kidnapping, or was it
Chapter 30
Sam stood there looking over the scene; they needed to move to stop the Tetri Cons. He had three complete Clive Stones: himself, Thantas, whom he'd just discovered was his sister, then Mellos.
A slight gasp from the only occupied bed had Triann and Drivas rushing to Thallus’s side. "God, I am so hot."
She said as she, like Drivas, tried to rise from the bed, only to fall back.
"It should pass soon; I am reading that, just like Drivas, your transformation is complete. I welcome both of you...

Alien kidnapping, or was it
Chapter 29
Sam and Mellos could feel when the seven-melded Tetricon council smashed against the shield. Sam turned to look at Mellos as they both held fast.
A moment later, Sam felt a slight nudge. Sam, how can this be of help to you? We will do what you asked, though we need some clarification. Came the thoughts of the male elite.
If I have this calculated right, you'll see what I am trying to do, returned Sam's thoughts.
Sam could feel that both of the elite thought he was crazy. Sam, there is no chance of...

Alien kidnapping, or was it
Chapter 28
Sam could only shake his head, a thought warrior. He had searched his memories to find precisely what it was.
"I'm sorry," Sam told Fino. "I can't seem to recall what they were."
Fino took a deep breath; this would take a bit to explain. "It was more of a secret arm of the protectorate. They had been conditioned so that they could protect themselves. Unlike most of the population, they could act out to violence with violence. It was basically in response to the discovery of the...

Chapter 27
Sam was again reaching out, feeling the powerful Tetricon as it accelerated away. He wasn't sure who this was; he'd already met the four new minds.
He could tell it wasn't the doctor. A small smile came to his lips. It also had a distinct antipathy for the doctor. It most definitely wasn't the seven councilors; they seemed to shit their pants when he was around. Hmmmm, this was getting interesting indeed.

Alien kidnapping, or was it
Chapter 26
Even as Sam's eyes narrowed, his mind started to push, and he was shocked when he began to receive images. Images of a beautiful, tranquil, peaceful word.
Suddenly, one of the arachnid beings started to groan; please stop; I can't take much more. Sam immediately slammed the connection he'd opened and closed.
Sam then heard a great groan of relief, and I thank you, came the thoughts of one of the creatures.
All heads turned toward Sam, three of the creatures shaking a bit. The apparent leader nodded;...
