To Kiss Upon A Dream
To thy lover a whisper in secrecy, discerning eyes must decide
You can’t run, I can’t hide
Souls encased in a time capsule continue to gently collide
Passion, felt to the heart so sweet
In thy calling of the night, a Queen you shall meet
Against the wind take my hand
Console the music of my temple through this lonely dance
Given time to escape the vault of the mind
In life, such a sweet landing my wings do find
Esu, the God, as I touch you softy in starlight dreams
Interference to...
You can’t run, I can’t hide
Souls encased in a time capsule continue to gently collide
Passion, felt to the heart so sweet
In thy calling of the night, a Queen you shall meet
Against the wind take my hand
Console the music of my temple through this lonely dance
Given time to escape the vault of the mind
In life, such a sweet landing my wings do find
Esu, the God, as I touch you softy in starlight dreams

Religion and spirituality
Spirituality
So soft and calming
Religion so headstrong,
Extremist, blind faith
Hard rules at pews.
War and peace
Peace and war
Both offering
Heaven, Nirvana
And Good News
But nothing for
Down here, really,
Except pain
And misery.

Take me there (part 1)
The sun has perched
in a familiar location
high above the sea
Take me there
Oh, take me there
My lover of the sea
Buddha boasts
of a garden
high up in the sky
To take the stairs
you must beware
because they also
lead to the sea
where a kaleidoscope
of sailboats
are waiting to be free
but lions with
iron wings
hold them in captivity
Come rescue me
Come rescue me
My lover of the sea...
in a familiar location
high above the sea
Take me there
Oh, take me there
My lover of the sea
Buddha boasts
of a garden
high up in the sky
To take the stairs
you must beware
because they also
lead to the sea
where a kaleidoscope
of sailboats
are waiting to be free
but lions with
iron wings
hold them in captivity
Come rescue me
Come rescue me
My lover of the sea...

The Killing of Our Sacred Deer
Tell me, what makes people so hesitant to devour their own?
Because mythology description of an eternity of punishment for harming the loins you come from .
By such beings like the furries or demons sent upon you to repent such a derived concept constructed by mankind.
Such a deterrent, especially when this family member deserves some form of turmoil in their life
The killing of a sacred deer, like that stories lesson is.
"An eye for an eye, and flesh for flesh. a price needs to be paid, and so goes the rest."
I'll make...

the illusion
The Illusion
I met a group of people I vaguely thought familiar
after a while it came to me and said, you are
the same people I met 15 years ago, glad laughter
we wondered if you had forgotten us.
I was baffled an old dream had produced a new one
or was there no past it all happens now.
Or did our lives had two levels one that is conscious
has a sunrise, and one we only see by accident like
someone had forgotten to lock the door.
Got up from the table and bid farewell, have to go

tabula rasa
when a child is born has no memory
one can say clean slates, after a few days it picks up
the basic like crying when hungry
from there on we fill the baby with what we know
a knowledge handed down from our parents, and the child
when it learns to read believes without reflection
what they are told must be the truth.
sometimes the child has a new thought, and it says what if this

High ride
Lucy Fur saw God
On His steed from hundreds of miles away,
On His way to another settlement
Of Heaven's Pearly Gates.
Boring Business Booming.
Lofty souls doing nothing all day
Except singing praises to their Lord.
Boring to tears
She offered a much better deal.
Brothels, casinos, gluttony galore
And those were the entrées...
But sadly, unlike God's domains
Here was found no exit,
only sadness, and eternal pain.
On His steed from hundreds of miles away,
On His way to another settlement
Of Heaven's Pearly Gates.
Boring Business Booming.
Lofty souls doing nothing all day
Except singing praises to their Lord.
Boring to tears
She offered a much better deal.
Brothels, casinos, gluttony galore
And those were the entrées...
But sadly, unlike God's domains
Here was found no exit,
only sadness, and eternal pain.

Brat
God was at a loss
He looked all around
But his algorithm
Log book was not to be found.
Maybe it was little Jesus
That amazing kid genius
Genius, yes, but a brat,
A brat with a good heart
(The Old Man knew that)
Who'd taken it.
He looked all around

Log book was not to be found.

Genius, yes, but a brat,
A brat with a good heart

Quid?
God was taking a nap
Alone in His abode
But then He heard
A Big Bang at the door.
Quid? He asked
And went to see
Nothing there. Nothing
Except a huge balck hole.
Questions, questions He had
And more.
Alone in His abode
But then He heard
A Big Bang at the door.
Quid? He asked
And went to see
Nothing there. Nothing
Except a huge balck hole.
Questions, questions He had

Interplanetary visitors
She walks through rose hued
Frozen mist
To enter my dreams
A welcome visitor from another time
When we reigned supreme
We set the scene
In our impenetrable world
Everyone viewed from afar
We had returned from another star
Our pale skinned subjects
Danced and rejoiced
At our return
But we knew we couldn't last
So we set the fires ablaze
To burn eternally until
Our successor
Appeared
From his interplanetary voyage
Frozen mist
To enter my dreams
A welcome visitor from another time
When we reigned supreme
We set the scene
In our impenetrable world
Everyone viewed from afar
We had returned from another star
Our pale skinned subjects
Danced and rejoiced
At our return
But we knew we couldn't last
So we set the fires ablaze
To burn eternally until
Our successor
Appeared
From his interplanetary voyage

Siren
There was a sailor
Some say the best to sail the sea
He lived for the salty air
And longed for gold and rubies
But one day sitting quietly
In the darkest corner of a sunken pub
He heard tale of a treasure so great
It would overshadow all other loves
T'was a foreboding warning
Of beautiful sirens who lie in wait
And sing their spellbound lullabies
To entice sailors as bait
He shrugged it off
Smirking with a cocky scoff
And set sail the next morning
