Electro-turbulent Expanse of Light
- Once I rode the Thunder,
- Cascading down the Electric Corridor.
- Bright and Furious,
- With tendrils of Quantum Rain
- and Waves of PURE Intensity.
- Once again I rode the Thunder,
- Now Cascading toward a Whispering Dream,
- Embers of Silver Flames wash the Sky
- While flocks of Stars shine in the Night,
- Dancing at their delight.
- Once more I rode the Thunder
- Blazing towards an unsettling Sight,
- Love long gone and Dreams forgotten,
- Heartlessness overcomes and Kindness departed,
- and now I no longer ride the Thunder
- cascading down the electric corridor.
- Late one evening, Late so Late
- I sat gazing at the scaled sky
- Shimmering from the Silver Stone.
- Dancing Shadows slither across the Emerald carpet.
- While trees; oh the Great Green chapels
- Soar to the stars and then fall
- Like Willows melting in a Surreal Realm.
- It was beginning, so I sat and Dreamed
- With eyes and mind wide open.
- Flashing Mind-Running-Speeding.
- Steams of cars streak by leaving trails
- Of Lazer Sabers.
- Street light glare with a psychedelic resonance,
- Cement and Iron canyons breathing,
- Light beam pole permeate the Road,
- Speedometer dripping...How fast are we going?
- Arrival in floating meadows.
- Moonlight Shines, flickering forms
- Move and dissolve in the shadows.
- A figure walks by, transparent trails
- Follow her form
- As I sit Dreaming,
- With eyes and mind Wide Open.
- I saw the peak High in the sky,
- Blazing Embers of light
- Swirl and Dance and Fly
- into the Curtain of Night;
- And I dropped Four more Slivers of White.
- I thought I was dreaming,
- Now I'm Being, with Eyes and Mind Wide Open.
- Memories focus and mind wanders
- through fields of Bright Green Knowledge.
- Flashing mind-walking-feeling.
- Stream of Life Flows
- Leaving Cosmic trails,
- Like fingerprints as it goes.
- Morning Dew forming on the petals of Astral Flowers,
- Calm, Peaceful, Serene, Powerful.
- The Millenniums passed before my Mind,
- I saw Molecules and Milky ways
- Melting in front of my Eyes.
- Then I saw the most inspiring sight,
- A miracle of Life,
- Cascading Colors fell like
- Rain through the clouds,
- Sunrise so beautiful,
- Loving so bright,
- As we spun around a star
- on this Great Stone of Might.
- Being in Existence
- I walked the path of the Ancients
- Through the Elven Wind
- to the Emerald Forest
- I walked-Feeling,
- With my heart and my mind wide open.
- Down the path, Brass streamed leaves;
- Reflecting Pond of Light;
- Shining, Golden, surrounds Dark Druids
- Piercing the Ravine.
- A trembling blue Boulder trails
- the corner of my eye,
- On which I sat upon
- Gazing at the Celestial Sky
- Over the glowing green valley.
- Butterfly Kisses Good-bye,
- Then I slept, Dreaming, with my mind wide open.
- Gravity falls through the Light,
- Blindly.
- Echoing thunder reaches from the Sky,
- Boldly.
- Richness that evokes the Soul,
- Calmly.
- Serenity of the Sand moves me,
- Deeply.
- Rose Blossoms Bloom,
- Brightly.
- Even here in the twilight.
- Prismatic Lights
- Blinding.
- Vastness of Wisdom
- Engulfing.
- Illusion of Life
- Fading.
- Shell of Confusion
- Breaking.
- The Sun does Shine through
- with Illuminating Rays,
- Even here in the Twilight.
- Spiral Invisible Philosophical Minds
- Converge
- and Wander,
- Bits
- and Bytes,
- Translucent Lights.
- Distant Psyber Altered Eyes
- Collect
- and Disperse,
- Zeros and Ones,
- Bits
- and Bytes,
- Transcending Minds.
- Magnetic Music Loud and Vibrant
- Echoing
- and Evoking,
- Bits of Bits,
- and Bytes of Bytes
- Zeros and Ones,
- Electro-turbulent Expanse of light.
- The Blue Island,
- ancient and Bold,
- Emerald Kingdoms High.
- Idol Gods aimlessly glaring,
- Never knowing why.
- Midnight sun blazes here.
- For the destruction and greed.
- Falling men begging on their knees
- but there will be no good deeds.
- Dark towers reach ever higher
- Burning in the Fire.
- Draining and Cold,
- Industrial Mold,
- Emerald Kingdoms laid low,
- the children will never know
- The Blue Island.
- Trembling life unfolds
- the canopy of the Great Canvas,
- to be painted with Cosmic Hues,
- Rejoicing Yellows, Reds and Blues.
- Images of children exploring,
- finding their own way,
- In a Tecnopunk world of Corruption and Decay,
- To be Masked and Sheathed like an Animal Breed,
- Where one cannot truly be free.
- Fighting for survival in a Realm of Money and Greed.
- No longer Painting a Painting,
- but holding onto faded memories.
- In a Cave of False Dreams,
- Bound and Gagged,
- Following shadows on the Wall,
- Not remembering at all,
- What it feels like to paint with Cosmic Hues,
- Rejoicing Yellows, Reds and Blues.
