Expecting Rain

. . .


you go to the ball
but you loose your shoe
in the back of a mirror curtain angel
you're a ghost
a fantasy on a boat
on the sea of metadreams

you shut your eyes
to make it black

you try to get away

but the light gets in
and finds you wide awake

The Awakening

my attention was caught today by a sign on the side of a truck:
'WE TAKE ALL FERRIC METALS
AND all NON FERRIC METALS'

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_X45qFUngoQ

how cool is that!

labyrinths of the stage

tree of life casting dark and lonely shadow
drop your leaves as the nights grow longer
walk within the narrow lanes
thunderstruck
with thirst and hunger

raking up the autumn leaves
the old lady fights the wind
babies lost in the forest
taken on a predatory whim

i won't watch i won't hear
the effortless lies
that we have traded for millions of years

you blow your top
you use your weight
topple the kingdoms
defining fate

black seed from the twisted pod
falls to the ground giving birth
young groaning earth
what has man been worth

(i won't watch and i weren't here
as the thundering wheels draw near
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WwBG45WiyVs

jack be quick

take the pain of another day
take the pain for those who've been swept away
take the pain when you decide to leave her
take the pain of disease and fever

rock the bedposts in crazy sex
rock the scales nanoparticle flecks
rock and role under stroboscopic fx
the steamy club
in the dead of night
there and then
before my flight

meta fore and anak dote
count the magpies on the lawn
take a step into unknown land
side by side hand in hand
in a boat with a small guitar
a metaphor for who we are

escape the rat race
get out of this place
where the river sings to an arching cat
played enough music to fill my hat

exist at the same time

been out in the courtyard
looking at the clouds
reading starcharts
thinking out loud
well i like society
it's just crazy that way
that it works and it's here to stay

totally full of ups and downs
but i'll sing straight
i'll let you in
now that you've found the gate
just to tell you all
and you better listen
i'm tellin' y'all

i evaded the cops
i evaded the law
social reality and all that it curtails
gonna jump ship
find a new decree
there are infinite varieties
like a hand of cards
a stolen glove
a person in the tumultuous flow of life
and love

i can sing like an opera singer
i'm looking down to the ground
when you thought you never found it
you're found
i'm out there again
surveying the stars
this society is so close it might as well be mars
but i found out some stuff
so you better listen to me
it ain't mars
we're standing on the sea

this poem was written while i had in the back of my mind the song restless farewell:

-after i stepped my way through and sang it, i shifted it all around to accommodate
some of the intense activities of my days





space wasn't carved out for the stone

this skin is made of frail web
a meagre current that flows along the surface.
mono-emolient poisons mark a trace of death.
the lilies of my skin
laid upon my breast.

there's nothing about this world
that makes it the way it used to be.
you get the chance to work it out
then it's all over now.
where did it begin.
with the literate, the literal
take to the wind

blown out law
drugs and stuff
composed to confuse you
the decoy a duck
flying over the lake
the money
the power
the employ

the sun is hot
and the nights are sharp
i can't see you
it's a mistake.
it was too dark

see the seagull
talking from the lamp post light
he's there to check on you
(((he's your friend)))
he'll shift you to the cloud
singing out loud.
a desolate position
depends on
the magician

obviously:
the church is a placard
somebody takes the mine
and the well.
with this number of cars
anyone can tell
we're conjuring up hell

and the sun is hot
the nights are sharp
i can't see you
i was mistaken
it was too dark

infinite cyclic

the snake coils up the tree
the world is there
for all to have
we float in time as we are apt to
while civilisation corodes away
from the instant of creation
there is only decay

each moment a new birth a new day
we starve to death
denial denial
bereft bereft

who would deny that it is a cry
everything speaks of it
it's written in the sky
yes i'll use rhythm and rhyme
if it's there and it makes you dance
i'll say nothing
lie in a trance

the cities are compacting
the rich are asking themselves
why should i needlessly destroy
the poor recognise two things
superstition and unsure
others observe the developing cell

the new philosophy is already dead
now we arrived on the edge of the sea
nothing means anything
no longer
an inflection here
grammar there
get all of these digits out of my hair

ya it's attractive
to follow the earliest christians
for all of us here it's the same
a word game
a game space
we are all the same
relatively equal
contained within skin
the spirit is rising and beaming within
philosophy is bogged down and tacky
what's the point in your scheming
how far lost are you in your dreaming

you have to heal fast
get along into thought
hiking to the top of the mountain
past the vatican
and past scientology
(no doubt they are following me)
past the carnival grounds
past all dogma
into the midst
of
it

מִסתוֹרִי

I accept it
The rules and regulations
The mathematical calculations
I accept it
I’m in the race
I don’t particularly
Like the fact that I’m connected
But I accept it

Where did it fall to
At such a critical time
I accepted it
and there it is
I’m in the race
With my hidden identity
Looking down

I don’t look down with hatred
That’s a barbaric take your negative thoughts
And I don’t fail to see the future
In my crystal ball
And I can’t ignore imbalance
And I sense there’s something brewing
On the barren plains tonight

Silent morning
Silent and still
Time to get ready
Go work at the mill

:-

state of affairs

oh democracy
how you’ve failed us
a thousand candles couldn’t buy your body
back
constant chaos and conflict in
an overpopulated world
after only 100 years of peace
what is it you lack

a handful turns into a flock of millions
your pagan ways were fine at first
but if the way to your heart is into the soul
why is everybody standing motionless
peering into a black hole

corrupted mistress
deceptive spies
there’s a capitalistic gimmick in your glimmering eyes
i know that i’ve seen you
my memory slides

barbaric islanders strong and clear
the mother armies whispering in your ear
hold your ground
the goddess says
gold bars and empty promises
haven’t gone to Your head
people disappearing
others grabbing up the land while the populous is chattering
passing illicit from hand to hand

in the darkest ages
we all thought had passed
famine and plague manifests into
a murderous form
an act of god
how did we get here
what have we done wrong

democracy just a pagan bitch
witch
at the doorstep of rome
the silent the stealth the tyranny
trynna steal your throne
with a thousand candles

she's not you ( your sister)

why is the black hole sparking
‘glorious’ light?
that falls upon the winter fence
the smell of the cat in the bush

traffic over on the highway
humming
down south its freezing over fast
arid desert air is perfect
between the future and the past

the past has lost it’s shape
taken another form
the future
stretches out like arms
eager for time

traffic’s humming
bulldozers hacking
shapes are changing
so as to fit the feeble mind
storms are wreaking

hidden amongst the smaller trees
that giant tree appears
from the misty freezing air
a skeleton of ancient times
“i’ve been past a thousand times
and never seen
this tree there”

speaks the language i understand
try to prove that it exists
they say
“where do you get that weird language??”
they’re all eating ham
while I sit on the fence
on a horse
inprismed
practicing fool
computer tool

(parody irony reflection
satirical/non specific distortion)

my language grows larger
until it will burst
i own some dna
in my corner of the earth
“kill yourself laughing
at the absurd you say”
“bulldozing the eternal tree away”
blindly snatching at anything
and strung together like beads



- god why have you changed???

one time you were helpful
then you split into two or three
you’ve shattered into splinters
and particles

you love the right and you love the wrong

bright light
one name
one star
so many Individuals
struggling
like a spider in a glass jar?

the sounds of silence can sound like thunder



human brain lotus
you want to stay closed
you want to stay closed
you want to open up
you want to open up
you want to wake up
you want to move
you want to uncurl
you want to dance
beak the surface
break through the surface tension
break the silence
breath the air
you want (to) (uwanna) open up
be born

the so called truth has hit the fan
it’s plain for all to see
don’t have to be blind
to fall to your knees
too many people
too much disease
not enough hospital workers
volunteers overseas

it matters what you put your mind to
where you go and what you do
are you overdone
are you rare
if you wanted to you could be
anywhere

today it’s colder than ever
or hotter depends on where you are
from what i can see
there’s too much diffusion too much sublimation
those being born are waiting at the station

so organise the mass
let’s get started with the truth
you’re all doing deals behind closed doors
looking at the stars through the roof

scorpio presiding in the dark
being a sort of crustation
living in the heavens and underground
part of the whole picture
voice and vision and sound

so we’re going to sacrifice the natural world
implant and destroy
i am aware there are millions
who are trying to create another day
there’s not enough history
there is not enough truth
looking at the stars through the roof

throat cut empire


climate change migration desperate men
women fleeing persecution murder
war economic collapse
death refugees embattled children
gender diversity sex change
tradies miners development/developers
stock prices billions of profit
progress bankrupt debt tax avoidance
terrorism war death homeless

poison gas warfare

beheadings torture warcrime
melting ice drugs shark attack

germ expense of law useless

no.3 he’s more forgiving

the rain pelted down
through the nice distilled darkness
guarded in revelation
the absurd and catastrophic collapse
of human civilization

exhausted root of ideology
a scourge with three tails
our prizing investigations
have opened up a can of worms

rain fell in wave
unable to detect
rain fell in waves
time and us move forward in search of freedom
our intersection

the rain pelted down
nice distilled darkness
the absurd and catastrophic collapse
of human civilization


alarming
disturbing stability
breaking down into chaos
speeding head long into inevitable collapse
clowns and con men stand aside
cyrus the great is on his horse
searching for the bride
he’ll push you down
smash your walls
rip the face off the clown
the whip cracks
jaw drops
the juggler appears from behind the props

"what have you got inside your coat?"
a musket a machete by the throat
sending a selfie ready for this
my brain is shrinking
what are you thinking
the spark of logic
the reason to arc
a balancing act
a meeting in the park

paradisia filled with repulsive sighs
society art religion economy
divine empathy
hidden eyes

“You’ve got to have power and dominion over the spirits.” You had to be able to “see into things, the truth of things—not metaphorically, either, but really see… with hard words and vicious insights.” bdylan

yes

i agree with this

cobra

this myth forced into order
order from chaos
star by star
illusory law
the blossoms the honey
chemtrails in the sky
the mortgage and the money

travelling like an alien
in between the sun and moon
the inflatable boat is sinking
you are lucky to make it through

anyway
it’s about time the big men came in to play
their hands in diamonds hearts and clubs
spades to dig down to the hubs
free the cart from the mud

fierce and competitive
represent life
violence is caste
into hierarchical and yearning
which rise up in decibels
a mound
a human voice that make a sound
outside of the audible background

you watch the posturing Of men at the top
towards an end game closing in
so the voice of the people is described
and it’s all of that
it’s not good

shooo cat




(aside)element

“here i am
in the middle of what i created
here i stand
the man across the intersection
was carted away
everything stopped
the other day

and everything was still
i think there fore i am
to be or not to be
great lines like these
fall from the writer’s hands

run down and abandoned
princes arriving back from the wars
alone in this world
strands and streams of twine
visions of pop culture that
mess up my mind

the wall was hung with remnants
photos of a rich life gone by
i sat at the table and i listened to her tales
she cried three tears of suffering
three tears of joy
three tears of domestic violence
so i said “don’t let it get to you”
and “i meant that in a peaceful way”

here come the waves and the arrows
travelling at the speed of light
never thought i’d get here
but here i am

the pageant wagon
with it’s wooden wheels
tells of the language
as it rolls over the hills
a link in the chain
not once broken
and the stories change to take in the day
let’s stay connected
share what we know
it’s easily done
a drop of water into snow

This is very nice. Thanks for sharing.
