Over
Come

idiots and dancers
gunmen, rocket men, lads and mormons
people of the world 
who are choosing not to relax

listen to some Ludovico Einaudi.

catnap

before anything else, align center
Much better...

In thin boxes of dew
is where cat's dreams are stored.
There are so ver many of them
that the gods in dreamland have built a grand city out of them.
The boxes get their colors from the temperature of the sleeping feline
and the content of the dreams it holds.
They can store multiple dreams, up to 13 at a time
depending on length and content.
The heavier boxes filled with dreams of cat gangs on the prowl looking for prey
make up most of city hall and the police stations.
The green boxes, filled with dreams of sweet candy grass
line most of the streets and make up the parks.
The white boxes of a cat's dreamless dream
remain untouched 
for they are holy potential in the regions near the heart of the matter.
The yellow boxes are made from dreams about tuna and milk
the gods placed them as windows, ceilings and floors.
And the pink boxes, laden with dreamy love for their owners
those special boxes 
are where the gods live, where they eat, where they sing.
They are the largest, and most beautiful
they are indeed the special thin boxes made of dew
because they hold the universe
and you.

so.

Why should we care?
well, we dont have to
but isn't it nice to think about?

to the little bump...

...that came in the night
and sat in the lap of moving words

...that made sure never to stop hearing the truth
of never giving up

...that dances a special sun dance
inside the heart of the matter

...that recognized herself in a myriad storms
and went about rowing her boat

...that shook the dust

to the little bump that rose.

Only light.

The cities cry alone
the wanderer has lost his home

The thawed will wash ashore
veiled and wrapped in thin rice paper
adorned with confetti and bengal tigers

Tales from deep within the sea
told by moon light and moonshine

The talks will peel the skies
the reels will flash and burn burn burn
until there is only light

Until there is only light.

back on track

While we await for our mind to return
the heart asks why it is that we lie to ourselves
inspite of knowing
that the truth will indeed set us free

There is a three-fold path
that will awake in me
the righteous light that uplifts
mind, heart, will
once again i have India to thank for illumination

Greater even, i have Earth to thank
no, no, i have Sun to thank
mmmm, i have Galactic Center to thank
wait. I have God to thank

I have me to thank.

thank you-rsef

Not premeditated.

like a snowflake swimming down the mountain´s air currents
that don´t really belong to the mountain or to this world
and this chant i give to you
full of bumps and rugged corners
so that it may polish in your heart what it could not with my hand

this chant and my heart 
open and full
dark in the night 
where the fingering rodabell grows
behind tall grass high up on the hill
only at night does my rodabell flow
only at night can you drink the tea made from its mysterious grey flower
only at night 
for then you can see
the veins in the petals and the truths of the immortal 
the soul and the mouth

this chant and its technology
belong to the bearer
who is brave enough 
to look at her own reflection in the dark
and then slap the surface of the water 
to create distortion and change
only the elders 
of our future can show us the way
their home is near 
they always stay inside
waiting for a visit
of our imagination 
and our will

claim this holy booty
and spill your own blood
to appease the monsters
that create their own

hug this time
squeeze it
its unique
and it will not come back

enter the sun
and with it the new days 
that for a moment will seem still
but the growing hum will give them away
and the nostalgia will hit
followed with structure
and then this ancient chant
overlaid with it´s new flavor
of lightness and high tones
it will make you move
physically and emotionally
with the strength of a thousand violins
and without any violence
spores and fires
will feed our mouths
our souls
the drop will dance with the spark
they will make children 
resembling hope
but they will be more dependable
and present

awa neh

yes

awaneh

dont know what it means but it rolls of the tongue real nice
try it

awa neh
awaneh
awaneh

glorious is this day
may it serve you 
and gladden you
and remind you
that love has many faces
and only one asshole

In Brazil

In this land
lives
the sweet
air

In this land
grows
the green underbelly
of the giant turtle
that carried the world
to this most auspicious time
of inner change

In this land
people
know the difference between
being complete
and being separate
between
music and myth

In this land
the beans are
loaded with garlic
the sandwich
doesn't waste time
with
leafy baggage
or
too many clothes

In this land
meditation flows 
in the shape of infinity
always catching up to itself
...
but i wouldn't know anything about that
...

breathe...

Breathing this light
I now remember
Constellations and churned turnips
Bathing my soul
Resplendent fervor
Inundating the cove
I call heart

Breathing this sound
I now can feel
Dancing Jupiters and
Crying rainbows
Beckoning my spirit 
Back into freedom
Far from illusion

Breathing this taste
Of the afterlife 
Here and now
Where it truly resides
I can now see
The missing color to the secret lives
We all live
But want to forget
Every time 
Slumber falls upon us

Breathing this touch
The thousand arms of the serpent goddess
Welcome my being
Her embrace and hearth
Now fuel 
The wheel of my being
Spinning me
Into the growing existence

Breathing this air
Reassures me that I AM
Alive
Well
Divine

Let your mantra be YUM, not Yuck.

forgotten decree

In the receptacle of the king
a fair march preceded
the ultimate decree:


man & woman must love above all,
love everything equally
and continuously

this was a royal order
 of the highest importance


supposed to be carried out immediately


so,
what happened people?

How Wonderful

The sun has a saddle on its back
where we all sit
and chant prayers
that we then weave into its rays of light.

The moon owns a bar down the alley
every 28 days its business hours 
are enjoyed by a select few
that know how to make her blush.

Love in disarray

Today's sun
can be called abnormal
lacking luster and aroma

Buffer time
absorbs the blow
with a complication

We won't wait
control
tried and true

That's what we're after
its purpose is anonymous
only the immediate comfort is visible

and the light at the end of the tunnel
ends up burning us
and dismay grows 
when the pain of one becomes shared
by a multitude of moths
happily singed
by the ever burning flame
of a love in disarray

This Time

This time when everyone is jolly
is so very cold 
to more than my bones

This time when I see happy shadows
reflected off colorful strings of light
turns my own into the mush it wants to become

This time has always been the same
even when surrounded with those who truly care
my heart has always felt disdain for this wonderful time of the year

This time and that one too
they come happily holding hands 
all i do is sit and watch

For nothing moves me on this time
aside from a few films and the odd treat
gifts come wrapped with more than shinny paper

sentiments hidden and unspoken
wrap around these things we distribute
we fruitlessly hope to make amends 

By buying things
we try to buy love
and when it doesn't work

We are encouraged to buy some more
to be traded and handed 
in a stock market exchange

For the White Hawk

On the steaming earth of the red desert, a pair of weary feet prance a painful dance of spreading light. The luminous seeding feet belong to a being who is in the earth, yet not of it. White Hawk Angel. Has been walking for two decades or so. The body-vehicle given to him had to adapt to his incredible light, it enlarged and molded to the force of spirit emanating from his core. The result of this effort has left him with a musical wrist, movable knees, a very tall complexion and a malleable face that contorts to perform.
Laughter and song are the seeds he prefers to plant on this particular walk.
As with many other light spreaders, this particularly luminous being has encountered steep physical difficulties. Misunderstanding and addictions have plagued his sphere of being without warning. The good fight isn't good to the good fighters, and they all know this prior to the battle.
As he lifts the heads of those that listen to him, his spirit, his ultimate and eternal essence grows and expands, and this effect is highly contagious.
His path is shielded from the hidden side lines, he is always taken care of and there are forces that are making sure he stays on this plane until there is a change.
My encounter with him keeps replaying itself on the screen of my thoughts. The laughs shared and the brave condition to laugh at the difficulties and just keep on going, are the probably the two biggest gifts i received from this Angel.
May you live well and prosper in love and gratitude forever, my dear Gavin.
Can't wait to see you again.

Tenaciously yours,

Nico. "little red hawk"

when they come
we will see
when they come
more will beam
when they come
the ostrich will run against the wind
when they come
the clouds shall part
when they come
areas will not be forged
homes will not be lost
pain will not be painted
over the faces
or the hedges
when they come
and they tell you they've been here
all along
you will say
'ahh, it felt like you were'

food
for
thought.

These Blunders...

     are like fertilizers for this soul

Sunday, October 17, 2010

thick air

im not too good at this life thing
i should have the hang of it by now
but i don't
i keep getting by with the bare minimum
with just enough to make it through
and then again sometimes
just enough doesn't feel quite right
just enough doesn't keep people by your side
ah
im tired of just enough
im sad that 'it's just enough'

load of crap
just enough

words

my words are stuck in a dam
high up above the hills
they grow cold
 they shiver
as the moon waxes 
they loose magic
they cry 
for a way out
and Mr. earthquake 
hears them
he unleashes
one of his renowned shakes of fluff
opening the dam like a clam
my words now 
freely, flow down 
pouring into the towns
imposing 
that dryness of language 
is no longer the norm
people's linguistic pipes 
are unclogged
words now run through the streets 
causing merry havoc
lifting skirts of impatience and anticipation
showing glimpses of what they can not describe
my words 
they cascade until the cascading's caput is cut
then they rest
the lazy river, they join
undulating liquid snake
all the way
to the brink of river-ness
to the birth of endless
to the big wide blue
oceanic words 
my words become
ever changing this fickle words
they keep me going these humless words

the 3 10's

time to make a change
today is special
so go outside
and breathe
love
into the atmosphere
make it grow
this love bubble of ours

today facebook stole 39% of my soul, and i ate two bowls of cereal . .

.
.

the rest of my time was divided between procrastination and contemplation

the plant of my day never saw the sunlight
only until the darkness fell
did my day want to begin
and even as i got ready
i felt heavy with complacency and indifference
the world's tentacles made it to my room
and i was not ready for those huge suction cups

i had to break a window
to lured the squirmy tentacles away
with the music from my accordion
they followed dancing until the ocean
was reached (just as they reached my house, the little bastards)
and they were home
the squid they belonged to was evidently distressed
the sight of his precious tentacles made him squirt a squidish smile

the road back intended to be mysterious and challenging
but my trusty accordion persuaded it
with smoky smoothness
to pretend it was summer and to forget all about the clock

with the night warm as a hug
i made it back
in literally
no time

after cleaning the glass
sleep was wonderful
except
i had this crazy dream
about the world
and it

was controlled by silly men

and their ocean was bleeding

and they didn't do a damn thing

and then i woke up.

Sunday

what is it about you day?
the problems you bring seem to be toppling over the top of my patience
yet you find ways to show me the power I have to change the stresses

did you plan all of this since we invented you, day?
did you plot against me?
when did you decide that it was cool to throw these people i didn't want to see right in front of me, when did you calculate exactly what it would take for my love to faint?
is someone paying you day?
could you really be that greedy? and what would you do with your earnings any way, you've spent yourself being mischievous and now you're almost over.

i have but one simple plea
talk to the night, yes the one right behind you
and please tell her to be soft and kind.
