A walk of fasting
Allow the mind to walk free-
and let your sacred eye see.
We alone hold the holy key,
so speak the righteous wording.
Walk through plains of silence.
Meander aimlessly.
The desert's arid, see-
cacti and the blue sky.
A spirit journey.
Open your eyes, see;
all things in beauty.
Holy sanctity.
and let your sacred eye see.
We alone hold the holy key,
so speak the righteous wording.
Walk through plains of silence.
Meander aimlessly.
The desert's arid, see-
cacti and the blue sky.
A spirit journey.
Open your eyes, see;
all things in beauty.
Holy sanctity.

Decisions ... Are There Really Any Unimportant Ones?
The storm approaches as you watch
Silently reverently helplessly the grimmest Reaper
The shadows grow longer filling the empty spaces
The day grows late and dread grows deeper
The spectre of knowing ... a curse
The threat of deflection already cast
Finding the eye to escape through
The chances are slim and slipping fast
The one percent of one percent
Easier to match in times past
The odds are too long and treacherous
You live there, though ... the need so very precious
Leap to the void and hope for the best once...
Silently reverently helplessly the grimmest Reaper
The shadows grow longer filling the empty spaces
The day grows late and dread grows deeper
The spectre of knowing ... a curse
The threat of deflection already cast
Finding the eye to escape through
The chances are slim and slipping fast
The one percent of one percent
Easier to match in times past
The odds are too long and treacherous
You live there, though ... the need so very precious
Leap to the void and hope for the best once...

Easter Sunday Notification
Some label the grave
cold, dark, rigid, desolate -
I am not one of them.
Vision-quest travels have impinged in me
huge beauty, higher vitality,
a permanent brightness of transience -
it sticks like an aroma of home
and cannot be unexperienced.
Easter’s meaning sweats my sensitivities:
‘O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?’ -
notification of reality beyond mere hope
paying no mind to vile church histories, perverted priests
enslaving theologies and burned cathedrals.
cold, dark, rigid, desolate -
I am not one of them.
Vision-quest travels have impinged in me

a permanent brightness of transience -
it sticks like an aroma of home

paying no mind to vile church histories, perverted priests

Up To Us
A truth is momentary and so is a lie
We think we live then think we die
Both are real in a glimpse of time
Second's justice becomes a crime
We think we think in a linear way
We think we thought it all today
But past and future remain same
As it is written in this great game
All is relative a wise man said
Getting a text is in how it's read
And real is real for we say it's so
Now we can choose where to go
We think we live then think we die
Both are real in a glimpse of time
Second's justice becomes a crime
We think we think in a linear way
We think we thought it all today
But past and future remain same
As it is written in this great game
All is relative a wise man said
Getting a text is in how it's read
And real is real for we say it's so
Now we can choose where to go

Universal Laws Of Lost Cause
We are waves
dashing watery selves
against retaining walls
Crashing!
before the slow drain
back into the sea
We are particles
awash on sandy tides
tasting shoreline briefly
Splashing!
before being drawn
back into the sea
Watery waves
and
sandy particles
we are;
we drown -
fate inescapable
incapable of changing
the landscape to date ...
until we ourselves
change
dashing watery selves
against retaining walls
Crashing!
before the slow drain
back into the sea
We are particles
awash on sandy tides
tasting shoreline briefly
Splashing!
before being drawn
back into the sea
Watery waves
and
sandy particles
we are;
we drown -
fate inescapable
incapable of changing
the landscape to date ...
until we ourselves
change

The song of a demon
After the great battle was over
What in those stories they do not tell
Is that nothing was truly over
For this demon, condemned to hell
“You shall not seek power!”, oh what does he know
About how it is to dwell in the shadow
Loving indeed! banned for one mistake
The love shown to a witch on a stake
Do you think I wanted this?
Do you think I yearned?
For the flames and fire of hell?
Is this truly what I’ve earned?
Have you never stumbled, my listener
And did you never fall?
How do you proclaim me, piously ...
What in those stories they do not tell
Is that nothing was truly over
For this demon, condemned to hell
“You shall not seek power!”, oh what does he know
About how it is to dwell in the shadow
Loving indeed! banned for one mistake
The love shown to a witch on a stake
Do you think I wanted this?
Do you think I yearned?
For the flames and fire of hell?
Is this truly what I’ve earned?
Have you never stumbled, my listener
And did you never fall?
How do you proclaim me, piously ...

Keepsake
Upon a journey that I’ve heard tell of,
To trek throughout the kingdom hill & dale,
In search of knowledge of my kith & blood,
To meet and greet the kindred of my clan.
From many leagues I come to honor thee.
I clear the last of summits o’re the hills,
To hear both far and near a solemn knell,
The slow & echoed peal thru’out the land.
I bow my head in grace to thank thee Lord,
In gratitude, oh Kyrie, mercy please.
You lay within my hand a keepsake dear,
To enter thru’ the keyhole of thy heart.

Old Soul
Her thoughts so tender
are reflection of a soul:
one that is thousands and
thousands of years old
Experiencing a multitude of incarnations; ever learning, ever growing
through many trials and
tribulations
Evolving, metamorphosing
into this spiritual being;
she is love; she is light
radiating the divine cosmic sheen

Number six six six

standing between him and his
most prized possession

Dear God
Dear God,
Hi there, how are you? ........hello, anyone there? Just kidding!
We haven't corresponded before and I've never met you, or even heard from you, but there has been plenty of stuff written about you. It's all old material now though and scribed by ghost writers back in the day, I guess they're just 'ghosts' now though!
You'll have to excuse my flippant joviality (some might say "sarcastic" - hey, whatever!).
Anyway, as you may or may not know, I fell from Heaven into Hell a long time ago and I'm just hoping that you don't bear me any ill...

Inceptionary
The dream you will be waking up into next
was already conceived and created
within the one you are living
now

Religion be Damned
I saw their souls, their souls were whole
I saw their religion, it was divisive
My way is right they said
Ergo everyone else must be wrong
Same reason for killing
Same old song
Think ye then that your god is so small
So narrow that he/she built but one path to the well?
Do tell, your dogma denies you the power of thought
The priests of perdition ought
To cast aside all pride
Rejoice with one voice
We are but microbes on a grain of sand
Spinning on an endless beach eternally
So, beg, beseech, howl, screech ...
