Sent to this land programmed with a plan to help my fellow man and woman. As we stand before the pearly gate. I debate and await the verdict of our fate. To be or not be that is the question for you and me to see. Unbound our hands to be free. Through the land of Zion I stroll. I plant my feet on sand hot as coal to retrieve the scripture they stole. The rising sun shines my mind. My thoughts travel at the speed of light. Breaking laws of physics. I shed my blood upon the soil of despair, giving life to the new dimension of time and space. We find peace in a place where fields are fruitful and minds are truthful. On this plain of thought I travel through space to a place of bliss. A cosmic twist in this planetary rift. I defy theories of relativity as I warp to light speed and plant my seed in your galaxy. Changing physical form of my dimension demented. I sign my scrolls on mountains I cemented. An eternal flame from the city of the lion I became. A different reality to me its the same. the wind blows your name.

My tongue is political when I declare my state of mind apocalypse. Blind you like an eclipse in this time ellipse. Is it treason that I think with reason? I find myself entrapped in this world of superstition. The moon shines my voice a pale yellow over the petrified skin of this planet we know as price. Where do people like us go. We bring the dawn. we have the light. It shines to those who are blind to the world of material and greed. We plant our seed. we grow our tree, and root ourselves into the depths of this capitalistic society. They create this false sense of security with paper currency and force others to conform and follow. They infest our planet and consume what they do not own. They kill to feed their hunger but do not give back what they take. They try to make us weak but the stronger we become, as we breathe light to the blind, deaf, and dumb.

Is there a solution to this mind pollution? It's as simple as evolution. This symmetry of existence in an imperfect world. Split between infinite wisdom and nothingness. I position myself in solitude obtaining peace from the oneness with self. I am my universe, my world, my destiny. Life and Death, rebirth, reborn. This centripetal force that takes it's course. I fulfill all the cycles without remorse. We wait for the sun. we wait for the sign to let our minds shine through darkness that hides our fair sister eternity.

Time is but a trend. The world will never end. I find infinite wisdom in a grain of sand. Where have you come from oh crystal of the earth? Blowing in the wind. A prisoner to the hands of time. You reach your destiny of eternal life as an atom that holds this reality. One grain of sand is a bond that gravity calls mass. We come from this sand. We are all particles of dust in human form. Majestically I conceal myself in this web called life. A creature of many faces. I relax in my ability to change my identity. I'm that politician on stage, that lion in a cage, that drunk in a rage. I stumble upon that treasure that we call pleasure which only lovers can measure. I cloak myself in my cape of knowledge. A jester to amuse my imaginary audience.

A trinity of the mind that my third eye shines....Changing the course of time as we unwind the color of our past in this life everlast. The eternal path to the righteous I display to save those from the abyss of dismay. Mind and body are one as we revolve around the sun of life that brings thought and imagination to this surreal picture painted on my majestic canvas. I stand complacent upon my throne. Across hills and valleys my soul does roam. The tribal dance in the burning flame. Indian spirits claim the land taken when the white devils came. Forefathers to blame for many years of tears and pain. The speckled sands of disarray. In the ocean's waves they lay. Finding refuge in the calm beneath. Together they form a perfect piece. Strength in numbers is what they yell. Beyond the tides as they fell. I called upon the spirits, and they came. Millions of years of agony. voices they heard. No longer will we be controlled by their mindless technology. We will open our gates to transform our energy. The time has come for us all to awaken. We are becoming lightwaves now, and peace is happening. What was written was written and is now beggoten. Third eyes are shining, and those who did wrong are not forgotten. We project our thought of Love and Peace across the continents and sea. Our torches lit to stand free

We are Bringers of the Dawn.
A war in the name of peace we spawn.
True Soul warriors who seek to speak the truth.
As pearls drop from our mouths ever so softly,
We teach ourselves to test the gentle waters.
As fish, we swim in synchronicity to the rythmn.
Thoughts are one as we challenge what is before us.
We leave the water as birds.
Gentle doves who fly in the name of peace and love.
Imagine a world where we are all happy with what we have.
A soul with blissful content.

written February of 2000

In an ocean filled with frailty
you wont see my reflection
If you're seeking purity
I might have some suggestions
what will be will always be
so leave it all behind
Take this road until the end
you never know what you'll find

Sliding on our memories
hid beneath our dreams
A secret side to reality
Never knowing what it means
In this world of fantasy
where blissful spirits glow
Rivers flow with health and wealth
an electric koolaid show

I wrote in the Fall of 1997 after I had that beautiful dream

People say Im crazy doing what Im doing
Well they give me all kinds of warnings to save me from ruin
When I say that Im o.k. well they look at me kind of strange
Surely youre not happy now you no longer play the game

People say Im lazy dreaming my life away
Well they give me all kinds of advice designed to enlighten me
When I tell them that Im doing fine watching shadows on the wall
Dont you miss the big time boy youre no longer on the ball

Im just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round
I really love to watch them roll
No longer riding on the merry-go-round
I just had to let it go

Ah, people asking questions lost in confusion
Well I tell them theres no problem, only solutions
Well they shake their heads and they look at me as if Ive lost my mind
I tell them theres no hurry
Im just sitting here doing time

Im just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round
I really love to watch them roll
No longer riding on the merry-go-round
I just had to let it go
I just had to let it go
I just had to let it go

"SOUL REBEL"
I'm a rebel, soul rebel
I'm a capturer, soul adventurer


See the morning sun,
On the hillside
not living good, travel wide

Said I'm a living man
I've got work to do
If you're not happy, children
Then you must be blue
Must be blue, people say

I'm a rebel, let them talk,
Soul rebel, talk won't bother me
I'm a capturer, that's what they say
Soul adventurer, night and day
I'm a rebel, soul rebel
Do you hear them lippy
I'm a capturer, gossip around the corner
Soul adventurer. How they adventure on me

But, see the morning sun,
On the hillside
not living good, travel wide

Said I'm a living man
I've got work to do
If you're not happy, then you must be blue

I'm a rebel, soul rebel
I'm a capturer, soul adventurer
Do you hear me
I'm a rebel, rebel in the morning
Soul rebel, rebel at midday time

Awake Ghost Song

Is everybody in?
Is everybody in?
Is everybody in?
The ceremony is about to begin.

WAKE UP!

You can't remember where it was
had this dream stopped?

Awake

Shake dreams from your hair
My pretty child, my sweet one.
Choose the day and choose the sign of your day
The day's divinity
First thing you see.

A vast radiant beach in a cool jeweled moon
Couples naked race down by it's quiet side
And we laugh like soft, mad children
Smug in the wooly cotton brains of infancy
The music and voices are all around us.
Choose they croon the Ancient Ones
The time has come again
Choose now, they croon
Beneath the moon
Beside an ancient lake
Enter again the sweet forest
Enter the hot dream
Come with us
Everything is broken up and dances.
