Fleeting Moment

fleeting moment
do not let this rope
slip down like every one before
dance now sweetheart
just off from the shore
for tide swallows all into abyss
do I really know you darling girl
or are you only a creation of mine?
I can't count the times
snapped from my delusional mind
woke up in a sweat
frantic for her silhouette
sandwiched in-between
memories and silly man's dream
the ictus of this time
scurries all directions but mine
woh now stop the horse
blinders are in front of its eyes
near to being killed
run down by the automobiles
strange dreamy images
swim around my head
flinging my balance to the wind
do I really know you darling girl
or are you only a creation of mine?
I'm no fisherman
I just wanna see
how it appears below the surface
please help hold the line
your hands are much more steady than mine
boat sides seem so thin
feels like water's pouring right in
I can't count the times
snapped from my delusional mind
woke up in a sweat
frantic for her silhouette
sandwiched in-between
memories and silly man's dream
the ictus of this time
scurries all directions but mine
woh now stop the horse
blinders are in front of its eyes
near to being killed
run down by the automobiles

Light n Love

I'm standing in the forest,
watching as the wild things grow,
hoping to find fallen leaves,
hiding treasure underneath.
And from above the golden sphere
emits beautiful sun rays,
sneaking though trees,
as they fight for Light n Love.
But the night,
it always comes,
leaving me in blindness.
Even fire,
though warm and bright,
haunts a lonely soul.
By the pull of a string,
I survive till the spring,
as I'm dragged though a deep black hole.
Sun rays linger,
embedded in blood,
in this battle for Light n Love.
I'm peeling off the dead bark,
searching for the carvings of the worm,
like ancient cave art,
stories concealed by the humdrum.
A web of roots entangled,
pumping the life force through the limbs.
They reach out endlessly,
heaven to hold,
in this battle for Light n Love.
But the night . . .

Disfrazados

¿como cantar cuando se le acalla la voz?
tanta poesía escondida en los fondos
escucha a los susurros nacidos de luz
siempre rodeándole disfrazados

Silent Forests

this canvas is worn and old
let's revive it
with life so bold
our voices sit sad and still
let's project them
the sky to fill
into silent forest run
cast my eyes at setting sun
so the fire won't fizzle out
I'll be goin' away
our village has many walls
with painted pretense
tear down them all
into silent forest run
cast my eyes at setting sun
so the fire won't fizzle out
I'll be goin' away

Soul from the Heavens

All right Soul from the Heavens
let your love flow now
let it flow now
Oh please Soul from the Heavens
my blood is boiling now
let my love flow now
All right Soul from the Heavens
oh won't you open me
won't you set us free
Let down Song from the Heavens
I need to hear that Voice
let it rain down
Teach me how to pray
Teach me how to pray
for the lives lost
for the unseen cost
blindness prevails
my hope starts to fail
feet draggin' slow
peace I wanna know
so teach me how to pray
So easy to turn my back
while so many are slammed
by the weight of history
I can stand and face the harsh world
it can change
it can change
it can change
but then I read thru the paper
and listen to the news
and I really get the blues
for the people still believin' in the bullshit
Let my soul's bird fly from the shadow to the front lines
lifting up the covers, gonna meet my fellow man
where they are
where they been
hear their sin
hear their cries
hear their whys
take their hand
make a stand
till we reach the Higher Ground
Oh please Soul from the Heavens
won't you set us free
won't you give us peace
your love is flowin' now
oh help us feel it now

Soft Equation

Rowing down this sacred river
through the sunlight, through the storms,
let the current guide your travels,
humbly bowing to the flow.
See the boats pass
tense and hurried,
set their coarse for mines of gold,
where they hope to shed their worries,
bathing in a false disguise.
Lord Almighty - bless the cold heart,
spread some love across this land,
to people hopeless, people crying,
people kept away from peace.
There's a strange wind a'blowin'
callin' out for Peace.
Show me a bit of this peace they speak of,
would you please?
There's a rumor goin' round:
there's a peaceful place
out beyond this sound,
the confines of this space.
Peace in our body.
Peace in our mind.
Peace in this city,
take hold at this time.
Where can we find it?
I feel it slip in through the cracks,
supplanting something good,
something great,
some little mystery,
pouring in through every pore,
infusing into my blood cells,
and particles, and my fingertips,
through the keys,
and every word I speak.
May it grow out with the fractal systems,
fraying out in endless spiral motion,
ocean, potion, explosion,
flowing out to the heavens,
every home and hut
and farm and alley,
city, suburb, field and valley.
I feel the sun sinking down again below the horizon.
Thunder clouds have crawled,
and clustered into chaos,
endless earthquakes,
toward demise of our design.
Refugees reaching for release.
Peace!
See the hint of fearless spirit,
held inside a child's eye.
Therein lies the soft equation,
sure to heal the hardest heart
