The leaves where all green once
when she implied memory
a single voice sang
of walls & orchards
only one desert flower remained
open in the night
reveling in all sun's light
yet we dream of a time when
they could all see us shinin'
in our hearts, in our minds &
even in our lives y'all
this shit is brilliant
take one wish & one will
& you get an infinite number of ways
to display potential
possibilities are endless
when all eyes are watching
all eyes are on you

Be all possibilities
move on the currents word
as it carries you along
& hold this moment near
in the morning one star will rise
I always hope it's nobody but you
she whispers to me in the night
& tells me of her geometric dance
from home to moon & down onto the tree tops
& whille the she looks down & sees no shade
her sister sometimes surrenders to day
The time when they share the sky is sacred to me
If I can only break their tension
like a battle axe streak on high
I can see the 3rd horrizon cry
breaking new ground
foundation realized
dawn arrives to kiss the flowers with dew
& I feel myself deep inside of you
the life that started on the ocean's shore
where wind,earth,&water meet
is growing into something more
it's expanding
growing wings
some might sing
& we're listening
every step of the way
we are living in your light

There's a yard full of black birds out front watching the wind ruffle my feathers they secede for relief & dance away like leaves dreaming for the tree About me moves my ecstasy in awe of all of you Photons fall like raindrops & splash upon my face Illumine my light & might the godess' caress untie all my knots & pull me in
as she sings
"All for you, you've payed your dues."
I wont leave this place the same
earth & sky
so much more than just
a part of me now
this course
my discourse
tracing the words like the river of fire
unfolding to & through
expanding & reaching out into
their hands
to catch them as they fall
all for you
we'll see this through
Deep within the waters
Under cover of night
In the palm of your hand
In the glint of her eye
Across the sand
At the mountain's top
The latter waits

On this day
On boats & on trains
over hills & in rain
through the desert to an oasis
& a valley
to where our far feathered dreams
hath fetched our fancy
Back Back
Far unto that guise
& test the light of truth
with those whithered eyes
I have seen the calling
& the patient's delight
in knowing the peace
that comes with night
So then see you this
you have flown so high
but soar you ever still
& if your wings are made of gold
flock you now unto the sun
try you then
the test that is the desert
& listen ye to the story it tells.
~
Floating eye
A body of air sustained by water
where once was water held suspended in air
Lo Rain
Yea Amun
I have come to the desert of my father Ra
& I have brought the storm
by a furious fiery grasp
in a frenzy of form
behold the multitude
unchanging & versatile
The Dragon
The Rabbit
The Cardinal
hath arrived
the long forgotten son
of the desert's eye

Words pour fourth from every sphere
but all escapes the doubtful ear
passage to a dwelling in the sky
carved by visions of the wise
Finally the time has come
to stand firm above the waters
This moment breathes fire
to encompass itself
Look
around the edges
permeating our vision
Awaken
to an ever brightening dawn
receive the light bringing rebirth to the song
carved into & out of the aether
the voice of our hopes & our dreams
binding us to the illusory pendulum's swing
we all agreed to this
only the hand of god allone
can consecrate this baptism now
relieving the temptaion to think
that this is all that is
& pulling us out
white light lifting up
it's inside our hearts
the perpetual force of our sun
god's favorite
one

Some deep reaching maneuver
& hear I'm starving for a change
not yours or theirs
but mine & mine alone
knowing the contradiction therein
I've lost the ability to give a damn
Acquired disposition settles it
"The time has come,"
The Walrus said
"To talk of many things:
Of shoes, and ships, and sealing-wax
Of cabbages, and kings,
And why the sea is boiling hot,
And whether pigs have wings."
I've taken too much into these roots
& now these old senses wither away
When all that really mattered I couldn't see anyway
I've built us a vessel
It will carry us long & far
Atop waves swelling
& storms billowing
we will ride into our day
The line that carries our message
Grows tighter now
& this love that's shared between us
feels excitement from the pressure
It wraps around me like hands
the air that I breathe
Like a cradle of light & love lifting us up to sleep
ensuring dream one & all come true
All we need to be sustained is right here in these arms
& all the chance for any kingdom that might last
rests here within my mind
begging
"take me"
gladly
Grip slips away
& the pigs have disappeared
Now mother cleans house
expelling expunging explaining
experience
the reason we are here
the reason we'll be spared
love
You mean more to me than I can see clearly
on the horizon I can feel the sun rising
& our family awaiting
A glorious day approaches quickly
Ride with me on the wind
