Shaman-entry one
The silent smile loosely falls away from the wrinkled lips blowing silver smoke rings that turn to gold as they pass through the broken teeth of the shaman as he speaks his parable. “Incapacitate your mind…It needs not think, It need only to exist.” he says as a tear drop flows upward from his eye toward the sky floating towards the clouds where I think it might find it’s...

Tombstone Blues
The sweet pretty things are in bed now of course The city fathers they’re trying to endorse The reincarnation of Paul Revere’s horse But the town has no need to be nervous. The ghost of Belle Star she hands down her wits To Jezebel the nun she violently knits A bald wig for Jack the Ripper who sits At the head of the chamber of commerce. Mama’s in the fact’ry She...

I’ll tell you about the driver who lives inside my head starts me up and stops me and puts me into bed he opens up my mouth when it’s time for me to talk and fires up my legs when he wants me to walk keeps my eyes open for most of the day adds to my memories the things that people say when he makes decisions I don’t have to wait but sometimes it seems that he’s got too much...

the wedge
We’re bobbing on the surface and the shadow glides below They say she feels my heartbeat Oh..But how I’ll never know That it’s the ocean flowing in our veins Oh..That it’s the salt that’s in our tears Oh..’Cause we could have come so very far Oh..In at least as many years! Take the highway through the Great Divide I’m building you a pyramid With limestone...

Existence; or lack thereof. The simplest thing...
-the simplest explanation is more likely the correct one.
Issac Newton said
We are to admit no more causes of natural things than such as are both true and sufficient to explain their appearances.
Occam’s razor is sometimes applied to the existence of God; if the concept of God does not help to explain the universe, it is argued, God is irrelevant and should be cut away. It is argued to...
Don't follow your dreams, chase them
This is the beginning of a new day. You have been given this day to use as you will. You can waste it or use it for good. What you do today is important because you are exchanging a day of your life for it. When tomorrow comes, this day will be gone forever; in its place is something you’ve traded for it and left behind…let it be something good and you shall never regret the price you...

The silence is ringing in my ears while I wait for the connection to your telephone. I cannot remember where my mistake was but I’m sure that you’ll remind me many times when we speak of things that are so far gone. Was it so hard to be there for a delicate child? Is it still hard? You say yes, but I doubt it was ever so. Where when winter is near will you realize that you have not...

Sinking in sync as they roll ashore

Auguries of Innocence
To see a world in a grain of sand And a heaven in a wild flower, Hold infinity in the palm of your hand And eternity in an hour. A robin redbreast in a cage Puts all heaven in a rage. A dove-house filled with doves and pigeons Shudders hell through all its regions. A dog starved at his master’s gate Predicts the ruin of the state. A horse misused upon the road Calls to heaven for human...

Soulful dreams falling from the diverted sky, waking me in time for her smiling sigh. A chance meeting on a one way trip, I never wonder if I’ll see her again but I knew I’d never forget. Peaceful words from a sleeping world at rest in a restless time. Moments go by and go on by, but it’s we that will find meanings in the dreams from diverted skies.
