Shining Moon

Go find the heart in between the head n` the tails
an` don`t have the foreshot run you off the rails
now that you`ve made a knockout batch
from a moonstill where all fantasy may hatch
All in bits n` pieces
an` speakin` nothin` much cohesive
full o` blackness in the light
this splendid adhesive outta sight.
A wild creation not meant to be discovered
still be the moonlight that helps all of it stay covered
clandestine is her chemistry
crazy mary dances with that green faerie !
All in bits n` pieces
an` speakin` nothin` much cohesive
full o` blackness in the light
this splendid adhesive outta sight.
my only regret is that I have got no regrets ...

A Spot o' Purple
03:55
|

Gets me lost in all the grandeur
that spot o` purple an` amber.
Coming from Summerland afar
where what flows goes, and we just are.
Got Taurus in the house of Gemini -
Shambhala`s sight brings a tear to the eye.
In light of these, my blackouts ...
watch us glimmer as a star ...
Heavy nectars drip from your amphora -
lets rhapsodies beat on my tambora.
Gets me lost in all the grandeur
that spot o` purple an` amber.
In light of these, my blackouts ...
watch us glimmer as a star ...
happy hour when it`s my shout ...
helps me see things as they are ...
That veil of magic behind the lingam -
helps me forget the keys to this kingdom.
Coming from Summerland afar
where what flows goes, and we just are.

In My Little Sahara
03:14

Laments of Simoon winds that blow
- at last at the end of the line now -
I only recall the judge shouting
`hey, this ain`t no vaudeville show!`
You don`t need to search for me
as I know from who n` where I come from
those perceptions now soar as a falcon
divining what before was vanity.
The heat haze it will shimmer
over the diary I write in ...
strangely sated in this Land of Thirst
- but my word how long 8 days actually is -
so let those thoughts roam Bedouin ...
I went n` took my chances
over the Atlas range at dark ...
- when Life subsides to be do or die -
let the vultures wheel overhead
so in your life`s trials show that spark ...
No need to look for me where heat cracks
as I know where where n` who I am
with adventure as your compass
you`re ultimately never really far off track ...

Holidaying on the Sun
03:29
|

The Sun's fusion’s a gas
I'm cool with taking all the heat
burning up N down the solar chart with
all the pagans dancing on the street
We're holidaying on the sun
looking hot in your solar flares
hey we`ll ride that psychic wave
yeah we'll burn up but never fade
Don`t want the iron cross
Don't need the hammer N sickle
Extend my middle finger to the state
N go where the weather ain't fickle
We're holidaying on the sun
looking hot in your solar flares
hey we`ll ride that psychic wave
yeah we'll burn up but never fade
Out where the moon don't shine
an afterglow on ever-clear
with a fire in my eyes and a lust for life
watch another sunrise from the pier

Mambo-Tango

The Revolution
won`t wait for apples to fall...
when our time is ripe.
On a river raft ... winds of freedom fore n` aft
unfettered in the wind ... do the mambo-tango.
Sugar sweet bomber ... honey riders on congas
we take to the road ... our sugar glider in tow
Don`t trust the accounts ... like those trophies Bagley mounts
they who fight for freedom ... on a high mountain citadel.
Been low but never down ... derailing merry-go-rounds
better to die standing ... than to live on the knees.
Sugar sweet bomber ... honey riders on congas
we take to the road ... our sugar glider in tow
jailbreaking the joint ... smashing up fantasy pointe
revolution`s throng ... let all the children live on.
Sugar sweet bomber ... honey riders on congas
we take to the road ... our sugar glider in tow
Do the Mambo-Tango

Like Wowe
03:27
|
|||
Flow the words out on the heather
as usual we`ll string whole worlds together
stiff be the breeze so lean into it
myself n` Marilyn and the misfits.
There`s a nuance to each season
you`ll find there`s non-sense even in reason
no need for explanations
nor moss on a stone in its coagulations
Weapons to the stun we`re phasing
a rebellion of flowers we`re raising
on the lam out in the Liberties
fully free to write our own histories
So profound, like wowe
you`ve found, Lord Howe
that we leapfrog without hesitation
all your amphibious operations
... and all the kids sing `like wowe Lord Howe`

Celestial to cellular
non-linear, kinda intense
you are the light that you see play
... celluloid synthetic incense.
`Never a chance operation`
you said when Pollock dripped his paints
fireflies appear in the Bardo
... the Shaman walks the path of saints.
Apply pressure, thumb on eyeballs
sparks of phosphenes don`t fear the dark
nor the sight of afterbirth gore
... life`s silent sound pierces the ark.
Celestial to cellular
non-linear, kinda intense
you are the light that you see play
... celluloid synthetic incense.
The seat of creation`s continuity
a nebulous sacred ambiguity
disseminates clear light of Lhasa
ouija board - film - tabula rasa

One For Rasputin
03:01
|
|||
Alone here stare up at the crossroads
it`s now all in front of me
and where everything awaits
- down to the devil or to destiny.
An inner circle behind the veil
better wait not for that ship to sail
hear my voice make my choice for infinity
either the devil or my destiny !!
but it`s ALL a miracle !
Don`t need no official position
they call me The Wanderer
I quit the circus anytime
- an` leave the bill to the conjurer.
An inner circle behind the veil
better wait not for that ship to sail
hear my voice make my choice for infinity
either the devil or my destiny !!
but it`s ALL a miracle !
ride a Viking longship
- where only mermaids slip by the hull.

`9 Dragon` Delta town ebbs n` flows
whispers its name as Can Tho
free from civ`lie`zation`s great big trade off
was told `there`s Life behind life to know`
Desire goes down the storm drain I`ve tracked
leads nowhere to nowhere far out back
in this usual state of expiration
saw how rebirth seeps in through the cracks
My progenitors hailed from Bear`s Den
tricksters to the Romans on their fen
revel in knowing empires meet their end, yet
a great wheel connects us now n` then
A rich tusk white is the sleek jag o` the moon
radiates the place a few hours from Kowloon
spot not featured on CNN nor Yon Hap
not visible, nay, on bloody Google map
Wind will wayward wander to pick up my slack
tickles backs of ridgelines rippling silvery black
despite where this decolonized soul will roam
even Illusion screams, `you`re already home!`

Hex Au' Gon
03:18

Brimming with gold to touch the soul
nourishes whole Nile rivers inside
you`ll love the buzz you're seeking ...
.... humms on 8 miles high n` wide.
Beauty`s depth in my whisky ablaze
Hexagons in dreams sure to amaze
Fires of hell scorch the wintry weather
Standing stones lace stars altogether.
Lay not a hand on the witches !
divining wildwood ways n` wonders
I`ll smash the hammer myself ...
... in bursts of rainbow thunder.
Beauty`s depth in my whisky ablaze
Hexagons in dreams sure to amaze
Fires of hell scorch the wintry weather
Standing stones lace stars altogether.
Fear not the threat of hemorrhage
as you peer out beyond the prism
you see how illusions blur ...
... new age dawns from the schism.
Beauty`s depth in my whisky ablaze
Hexagons in dreams sure to amaze
But I`ll be off with the faeries anyway ...
way out where the grass grows long ...
But I`ll be off with the faeries anyway ...
My beloved winter hexagon .
Beauty`s depth in my whisky ablaze
Hexagons in dreams sure to amaze
Fires of hell scorch the wintry weather
Standing stones lace stars altogether.
But I`ll be off with the faeries anyway ...
way out where the grass grows long ...
My beloved winter hexagon .
My beloved winter Hex Au’ Gon .

Never rued Blackbeard or his treasure
only the thieves trying to steal his pleasure
as we journey
over the sea to Skye
Thoughts of the moon and how it's hollow
clamoring of war drums that good folk follow
as we journey
over the sea to Skye
the nodding off of sheep that jump through my sleep
as we journey
over the sea to Skye
Pour me another pyramid
unite all the aliens and the hominids
as we journey
over the sea to Skye
