ReEnchantment
And it's up to Us
to re-enchant this planet Earth
We are the elves and giants
We are the shining ones
daughters of the Moon and
sons of the Sun.
We are the shapeshifters. We are the
mysterious light shrouded in mists at
the dawn of Our time and it's
up to Us to re-enchant this Planet.
Up to Us to midwife at Our own rebirth
up to Us to send Our dead along thier
ancient pathways to the future
up to Us to re-enchant this planet Earth.
It's up to Us to break the spell
that steals the colors from the world and
leaves it lifeless
it was Our spell
We can break it.
Up to Us to break the spell
that steals the music from the
Wind and Rain
and leaves them senseless
it was Our spell
We can break it.
We will dance the
magic dance
and Our bodies will re
member. We will sing the magic songs and in
time We will remember
how to live together
how to love each other
how to ride the dragons
how to call this planet
Home
KEEPING TIME
and She streatched my heart
to use it for a drum
keeping time for dancing
with the Moon and Stars and Sun
keeping time for dancing
with the Rain and with the Wind
keeping time for dancing
in a circle with some Friends
She streatched my heart
to use it for a drum
keeping time for dancing
keeping time with Everyone
GAIA
We are the blue green planet
spinning to the East and circling circling
our beloved Golden star
the beautiful sister
twirling around and holding
moon for a mirror
dancing the helix
singing the universe
COMPOST
I'm composting my past
all the empty rinds of just deserts
the broken shells of old barriers
the coffee grind
i'm composting my passed
bullshit raps and
chickenshit fears
i'll throw them all together and
let the microbes do their thing
heating it up and
rotting it down
I'm composting my past
leaving my leftovers
turning over new leaf mold
Fork it all i'll chunk that
funky pumpkin headed
notion on the pile
let it rot
i'll watch it steaming in
the morning Sun.
i'm composting the past
free carbon!
break down cell walls! and
when i've forgotten all
about it and it's cool and
dark and doesn't even
stink, it will make fertile ground for
future growth and posabililty
roses and cucumbers, larkspur and rootabagas
I can share with friends
First Person Plural
We are the changing line
jumpshift, whirl
switchback, twirl
wave and wind
a gain and again we are the
leap and the re
turning we are the
burning in our own throats,
yearning to be
further, learning to
be free
We are the right
hemisphere liberation front
with cells in every human.
Shakti troopers striking
terror from the heart and breaking
the hegemony of the
white bread culture.
We are
up to Sirius
alien sedition
We are the bud
sport, new and all
ways present tension
the rhythm of love and
the dance of
Life.
SECOND COMING
She's coming in focus
She's coming to
coming out of the woods
She's coming through
She's coming right up
She's coming on down
She's coming on in and
She's coming around
She's coming up roses
She's coming along
coming out on top and
She's coming on strong
She's coming in clear and
She's coming on line
She's coming about and
She's coming out fine
She's the coming trend
She's coming again and
She's coming again and
She's coming to light
coming into her own
She's the coming attraction
She's coming on home
She's coming free, She's coming to me, She's
coming,coming,coming,coming
coming close,the wind is rising
leaves are quaking, limbs are shaking
coming closer coming near
coming,coming, Come!
She's Here.
GAIAN STRATEGY
We are a million dragons
Waiting patiently in the genes of a chameleon
On a leaf
In a garden
In the rain
CELLF IMPROVEMENT
and its better to find mycellf out
when i fall, than never
to find mycellf, never at all
alone and forlorn, tattered and torn,
impulsive,convulsive, repulsive or worn
out loud and proud in a crowd
foolish or insane, dumber than dog
biscuits, uncool and inane but better
to find mycellf slipping away
for the five hundreth time in one day
and its better to find mycellf once again
wrong, since that's when i find mycellf
moving along

Southern hippie. Went "back to the land" in 71 and dug in in the blue ridge mtns. Raised 3 kids, daughter a sophmore at UVA, her brothers have degrees from VA Tech. Uneducatable mycellf, so i'm quite proud of them.
Live by mycellf except for a couple of cats now. In a rundown old commune kinda place in loose community now of half a dozen guys who rent from starroot. She is most laid back landlady ever.

I first heard the basque group kepa junkera back in napster haydays and it was love at first listen. Looked them up recently in youtube era and they sure look good too. Check this tune called bok espok played with montage tribute to basque culture. The singing women are bulgarians, and i think they sound good together.

Like celtic music, basque music is a huge genra with the commonality being a high degree of creativity and sensitivity to nuance. These are cultural treasures, not because they are valuables put up in a chest in the attic, but because the talent and spirit of the peoples is alive and growing people who have the artistic integrity and courage to carry it on rather than rest on the laurels of tradition and history.
I love this video. It was made by two basque musicians, and they made a full length video about going around the world getting the various sounds. There is a lot of excellent basque music. The wooden sticks and planks the guys are playing are a basque instrument called a txalaparta which i think is really cool and i wonder why more peoples around the world have not done this. It evolved from workers crushing apples with big sticks and keeping rhythm with each other for amusement as they got a little drunk on hard cider.

Terra preta, dark earth, is the term for deep deposits of black and intensely fertile soil in the amazon rainforest where the rest of the soil is extremely poor quality. Deposits are located along rivers and sometimes in areas raised above the floodplain, comprising in total an area about the size of france. Archeological digs have discovered that these areas were created by a thriving and populous culture who raised fish and turtles in ponds and used efficient forest farming techniques. They burned wood and biomass in big airless piles creating charcoal, which they incorporated into the soil feeding a vast number of fungus and microbial species and creating the fertility that brought the process to the attention of scientists. The soil actually is self creating once established, with the colonies of microbes continuing to produce fertile soil at a very surprising rate long after the addition of charcoal has ceased. This culture was destroyed by disease carried by gold seeking spaniards. Their few descendants use slash and burn farming techniques, moving from area to area as the soil depletes.
This process sequesters significant amounts of carbon while creating an edenic garden.
James lovelock, planetary superhero, is excited about this! He says:
“There is one way we could save ourselves and that is through the massive burial of charcoal. It would mean farmers turning all their agricultural waste - which contains carbon that the plants have spent the summer sequestering - into non-biodegradable charcoal, and burying it in the soil. Then you can start shifting really hefty quantities of carbon out of the system and pull the CO2 down quite fast.”
Check this out! I think it is a fascinating an very encouraging development!

The Reptilians
It is perfectly true that we are in the grips of a vast conspiracy of an ancient reptilian power which has the power to take over our minds and feed on our emotions. They have enslaved us in the past and forced us to dig for gold to satisfy their greed. Their power structures have invaded all governments on Earth. I’m speaking, of course, about the reptilian brainstem or R-complex, which is an ancient part of the brain concerned with fear, rage and other fight or flight emotions. Our continued evolution is in part concerned with overcoming this influence. This is a true myth; a deep truth expressed through fable. The message is for us to rally our forces in the neo cortex, calm down, and cooperate for the good everyone concerned. Think about it.

Here is a link to a BBC article about a team of scientists who have recorded the sounds of stars. The article has very cool embedded players that play wonderful samples of some of the sounds. Try playing them at the same time.
news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/scien...7687286.stm
In the 1970’s, scientists discovered the background radiation left from the big bang, and calculated it’s frequency. The universe, it seems, still reverberates with a note that, when put into our standard system, is between a B and a B flat. In 2003, scientists working with the Chandra x-ray observatory detected the deepest note ever found in the cosmos. It is a B-flat that is 57 or so octaves below piano tuning. I read online that the gyuto monks chant on this note, and a quick trip to youtube confirmed this for me.
All this came to my attention after an online discussion about the high pitched humming that many people, including mycellf, hear in our heads pretty much all the time. Some folks think it is part of a government program of mind control, which i think extremely(!) unlikely, some folks think it’s god talking to them, some folks think it is the essential sound that informs the universe, and some folks say “it’s tinnitis you idiots, seek professional help”. Anyway, i was in this discussion about this, and decided to see what note it is, and the one in my head is clearly between a B and a B flat. I remembered a recent story about the universe hum being in that key so googled “B flat universe” and found all of this info and more. Not a new agey site amongst them, all scientific observations. I like that, and am surprised by it. Cool huh? I sure think so. If you have a hum in your head, check the frequency.
This reminds me of the Quan Yin Method of meditation, or "contemplation of the sound vibration.”
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quan_Yin_Method
Here is a good NPR story on B-flat that doesn't even mention the fact that it is the background note left from the big bang, which is a biggie. .
