Extra Sensory Perceptions of an Eavesdropper Spirit

They give me their secrets,

The logic they bury

The visions

Tossed to dreams

By the suppression of day

As if s gravity

Felling truths

We have chosen

To ignore in our days.

They show me

The things they see,

But more importantly,

How they see them.

A Friend's Encouraging Words

Sure, man,

Life is a prism

But accept the prison

Constraints and limitations of life

We all live in 'em

For the love of livin

Every man here

Is here

Now that's beginning

Something like family

Thinking

And having visions

Of acquisition

So we can flex our giving

Our search for our position

Not just our gifts within us

But for the compass

That magnetism

Of

This life

This swirling prism

This light

Sometimes a prison

From which we seek flight

Like a bat at night

Into gamma

Into that place

Outside of light

It might be our disgrace

If i heard them right

But there's a direction

To every hibernating bear

Or bird in flight

You can spy it right there

In the details of life

The truth it's come to glare

It's so blazing bright.

I won't say

That we leave the maze

Energy plays

And blossoms in ways

That no sage could say

We trough our dreams

Upon a page

Upon a caveman's cave

Through the tincture

Of the flowers

Dirt and stones of the day.

Strong Women

The whole song of life

Singing in your gentle sights,

Dreams interweaving

Quilts

For a comfortable ride

Where grandma tells stories

And still laughs

With her eyes.

Something about 

You ladies,

Some of you

See through tragedy

Some of you fight

Tooth and nail

And now the quilt

And then the needle

And the thread

Stories at night

Laughter

And a real live fire

Burning inside us all.

And we'll sing

And we'll laugh

And gratitude

Will slowly

Melt us to mud

And the future

Will dance 

In the rain.

Transformative Path of the Masterless Prophets

The dreams of the men

Who slept in the manger

During the winter

Were mostly 

Nonsense.

Yet, among them

Was a young addict

An educated boy

An awakened soul.

What he missed most

He couldn't let go

And what he let go

Haunted him,

What he saw both amazed him

And came to

Crush him.

Pulverize him

To steam,

Invisible steam

To cycle through

From the ocean

To the clouds

To the snow and the rain

All his pain

Squeezed out

He thought he

Would not survive

The whole 

Transformative pain.

But said haunting ghosts

Dove fast through

Sparing no time

To catch the young man

Who gave 

With all his might.

To have seen love

Walk like lightning

Upon the shores 

Of outstanding sight

Depth of night

Milky breaths of cold

Shining fire 

From the mind

To the skin

Of the ocean

And shimmering, again.

And then the sound,

Water bubbling,

Sipped by the sand

Waves gulping

Foam Cymbals 

Thin water stretching

Like a hand up the

Spine 

Inside the dress

The salty of dance

Was the sand 

And the smell of moon

Peppered with brine.

You Blessed Nothing

Hold onto this string here.

There you go,

Now,

Watch out

For that right there

But the past, too,

Is s screaming car.

That angry driver is you

One day

Acting like an asshole

As we All do.

It's inevitable.

Here are some tips:

Listen to music 

And don't just hear it.

Study language while you're at it

And come up with theories

If you're going to go crazy.

If you like going crazy

For some reason.

Mathematics or Jesus

can center you.

Even the heavy metals

Of the netherworld 

Do not compare 

To the atomic bomb,

They say.

I dunno if i agree.

Heartbreak;

Mind shattering fury:

If they don't breed the very devil

They breed something

That dies for a while

Wilted as if exhaling life

With all its strength

Ever so slowly

And determined.

So the mathematics 

Will help you count

While your down

Taking a breather

Wondering if it's all worth it,

And 

"What the hell, man? I thought we were cool de la?"

But yeah, it's a wilderness out there.

Don't let the right angles

Confuse you 

Don't let the perfect teeth

And shiny tech 

Eat you up as Chew your mind

You're a god damn monkey

With some vague notion of why life is

And is about,

And you'd probably not die for it.

Why should anyone have to 

if they come in peace and mean no harm?

Word Escape

I should not fight

The weight

That my heart feels

And simply place it

Upon my pages

Always ready for

syllabic arms

To open my windows

And blow my thoughts away.

paradise later

I can smell it

In the breeze

A long lost

Paradise.

It's something

I sometimes see

And ignore

So i can live

My life.

That clay

They used

To shape me

To walk through

The universe's mind

Memories that we hold

Illuminate,

Give light,

There's so little here

but so much

buried inside

I dig a hole

I build a bridge

I build a city and then the lie

that not now

but someday

we will arrive.

Modern Faith

A question lingers

As it shouldn't.

A beautiful widow

Whose knotted hair

Could unwind time

And cast us

To stone,

Of alabaster bone,

and millennia later

ghosts walk out of those 

remnants of us,

and back into the crowd

to unlearn the instinct

to save

so chips may fall

where they may

and this is our method

of faith.

Conversation

I should master

The demons in me.

I should not feel

Any envy.

I should be higher

Than I have been.

How i hate you,

Perfection.

You give me

Impossible heights

To strive for;

Things I'd die for,

And you'd actually

Take my life for;

Life is bigger

Than my record,

Than my life-stream

Broadcasting

the light that your moments send me,

You give to me,

I take and bless them

In my dreams,

I kiss your bird beings

I breathe into

Your worms through

Skin and earth

I give eggs

And break birth

And make love

Sweeten over time

And the bread rise

And tides turn into

Cloud's wombs

And back to you

And back to you

The song would pull you

Take you through

All that your old soul

Ever knew

All that you wished

Of life

Tied there

Anchored there

In your crimson heart

Upon the ink of time

For you to take and swim in

Dance upon

Write with your steps

That song

That invisible truth

We shall not speak

But be

Uniquely

Silently

The flowing forces

These channels

Our tributaries

And the natives 

That wait upon their shores.

We twinkle

Pulsating dream

D/c current light

Strobe to my kind

Hope to my heart

Love diamonds

Fall upon my red mind

Meaning in it

I made you

Don't hate me

We painted with

Love

The canvass was running

Toward something

Distant

Retreating into

Nothing

But i knew, i knew

There was something

I disappeared 

And saw that law

Twist around me

Like the crown,

Like a horn,

Like the seas rubbing

Shores to new shape.

I'm in the mist, maybe,

i die here

You die there

We all die,

Everywhere

All the time

So me here

Is a distant moment

Dug deep here

Dug from within me

Here

This dirt

These broken

Scentless words

They heap up

And say something

i think

In the end

They say something.

Guiltless Dream

Every man

Has his pain

Life already drove

Mankind out the cave

Out the cranium

Outer space

A million ways

You can take 

To the future

You could go

Your own pace

But every man

Is afraid

It's a jungle

Through time

Even spaces

Where it's paved

So when it comes

To nature

I'ma dance

I'ma sing

I'ma live life

As if it were

A guiltless dream.

Tough Love

1. 

It'll be many moons

Before i learn

To love you.

Sometimes I'm lost;

Sometimes

I know it all.

As i go about

My business

i think about you;

When i dream

i do dream

Of you.

2.

Here we are

Don't let the magic

Confound you;

Trust in love

With all your are

Nit just your heart

Because

To give all

Of yourself

To find

And know well

What you can give

And to have the heart

When all

Either turn their back

Or hit

With all their might:

That's just life

Trying to teach you.

Love has to to be

Tougher than hate.

That's just the family

Trying to make you

Strong enough

For this path

That you're on

So take

Our love with all

You know.

Go be great

But don't forget

That it was love

That made you grow.

Life is a strange situation

When you're questioning

The ways of man;

Thoughts that lead you

To depressions,

Back into the caves

We went.

Isolated, 

A new type to darkness

A bad surprise

To buy time

To give us all

The space and time

To reorganize

Wrong and right

Are relative worlds and words.

We're all so right

And so irrelevant, too,

So don't your cry

If no one 

Wants to hear you

There's a voice inside

And an ear that

Will always listen

It's all in you

When you can't find it

Anywhere else.

It's all in you

When you're drowning

And shouting for help

But no one comes;

It's the hardest lesson

You'll learn

From where love comes

It is given

And it must be earned.

Painting

What comes

From the chamber

Of colors

A child can find

His dream there

In that moment

He can reach anything

Differences

Indian walks

Land and is held

Upon earth

Less by gravity

Than by his

Quantum love which is 

Tangled energetically

Like roots

In a holy place.

What we see is what

We get

He says.

Where i love

You rape.

When I give

You take.

When I wake

Nature embraces me

And gives me 

The sacred fruit

Of life,

I live

At the pace of paradise.

When you wake

The dream ends

And you have made

Shame

Of the truth of life.

You race toward

A better future

With all your might.

You've bent time

Studied the light

But your men fear

To be the light

Nude in it

Fearless in the infinite

Know it is 

In every finite thing

Every moment

And detail of life

Woven by a thread

Of mind and heart

In space

Which limits the infinite

To lines

And terms we can define.

Sewing into time

That crimson river

Of love and sacrifice

That stoic gaze

Eternal peace

In the abyss

Hearing the spirits

Believing in and chasing

Rabbits for the feast

To return with a bounty

So that entire armies

Can eat.

This is warrior you

As it is warrior me

And yet we do 

What we must

So frighteningly differently.

These poles do lead

To lightning and storms:

Tempest of both

Nature and the soul;

That great symmetry

Of a balanced moment

In cosmic time

Governing like a blind

And just goddess --

Child, no doubt,

Of a greater, more perfect being

Manifest all around me

All around you.

Why is it

We perceive, as we do,

So differently?

How to Dream

Make your bed 

In the morning

Quit complaining

You're living

Get going.

Eat your breakfast

You champion

You secret king

You divine shining thing

They don't see you

Not all will

Don't you worry about

Any of that

Which leaves you

Discouraged

Dream, and dream

With courage.

Yes, be humble 

In your mission

But do not

Sacrifice your pride

Nor enslave yourself

To anything

Protect your

Inner child

If nothing else.

Everyone loves you

They just don't know

How to show it

Everyone is teaching you

And lesson 

Molding you

So be true to your light.

It is not all love

And justice

Nor is it just death

And misery.

It is not weakness

To feel pain

There is no shame

In doubting 

Your destiny.

So be brave

Quiet knight,

Lead even your demons

Toward the light

And when you dream

Do it with love

Do it with courage

Do it

In this life.

Lazy Days

Lazy days

I lay until amber 

Seeps through the window

Into my dream

Until slumber

Stumbles to walking

Through green.

Dirt paths

Riddled with horse shit

And cow paddies

And mushrooms

I'm not sure

I should eat.

I leave them be.

The lemon trees

Attract giant bees

Called mamangavas.

Their sting

Will send a grown man

To the hospital.

That amber light melts

Into a fine sugar

White,

Dissolved in the

Molecular air.

I walk, I breathe deeply.

I yearn for bundles 

Of money,

Uncontrollably.

The horse shit and bugs

Distract me from all that.

Beads of sweat

Burn my eyes

As I walk back

Half out of breath.

Lazy days send me

Back to sleep after walks

Like that.

Or I skip coffee 

And paint and talk to myself in other languages.

My stomach rumbles

But I'm too busy

Being lazy

Loving everything

Making moments

Into gold.
