Gypsy Dec 2020
Tumultuous waves of thought
Anxious and grieving
My brain became hollow
There is something to be said - for being dead
In crouching cellars - alone or together
The intimate sanctuary of beauty
Far off - a voice in my ear
Like a dream - I feel your caress
On this indifferent tide
I wave the visible world away
Into the oblivion of lost things
Into the iridescence of decay
Like a sunset in a hazy day
Fearful of hearts treason
Your phantom fevered loves remorse
Gnawing at a worlds despair

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
Like a damaged nerve,
Like a dark bird
The spice of life
How i remember You, through all of Myself
How Your absence, troubles me
How i hide all of this Hurt
Down in the shadows

Space and spawn
It smells of insomnia and rusted key locks
A time of appalling inflation of words
A gap of silence
As light splinters into darkness
A blistering sky
The faltering shadow of unawareness
The past breathes through this emptiness
Pandering to the illusion of movement and change

This space around us is beginning to grow
We have faith that in this love
The mermaid girl from the carnival
A book of myths
The wisdom of God


Black ink throbs more than blood
Thorny on the soul
In the feverish dance of dust
The river of emotions bursts its banks
Over the edges of reality
Heaven was crying
For the twilight in silence
The existence of the Existence

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
Over the edges of reality
Heaven was crying
For the twilight in silence...

Solitude ....

Like a damaged nerve,
Like a dark bird...
The spice of life
How i remember You, through all of Myself
How Your absence, troubles me
How i hide in all this Hurt
Down in the shadows
Space and spawn
It smells of insomnia and rusted key locks
Our time .. unappalling inflation of words
Gaps of silence
Splinter into darkness
Our blistered sky
The faltering shadow of unawareness
Thorny on the soul...

Black ink throbs from the pen...
The past breathes through this emptiness
Pandering to the illusion of movement and change
This space around us is beginning to grow
We have faith that in this love
This book of myths
The mermaid girl from the carnival ...
Her feverish dance of dust.

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
The sacred calm, that vale of life
Whispering from the slums of Paradise
I was a dog on these streets
Some pensive Spirit from dunes of coal
Beyond the forest of the night
Praying to the carcass of a tightened drum
Once true and kind, that solving emptiness
Unreachable - changed from love to lie
Our Moon - sinking in their Holy Christian tongue virtue
Praised with sour humble hands, gestures and psalms
From the fields of a loveless land..

Gypsy

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
In the concealed darkness
A genetic shadow
Demons
Bloodsuckers
Spiders
Vampires
The resigned indifference of extreme old age
Shipwrecked by the laughter of the gods.

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
A few stern questions for the Creator
To prove to the world
I’m not a person
I’m Pollution
I believed in monsters
You know
Like vampires
Werewolves
Ghosts
This constant urge
To tear my insides apart
To be devastated
To destroy my life
Sully my soul from the inside
Bury me twelve feet deep
Into the close and mirrored catacombs of sleep
Throw the church down over me
An angel under a white stone
There's awful strange things in this world
Open any door of your imagination
The lurking Presence
The sense of evil
Where the past is only part of the pattern
Swollen with the contributions of the centuries
Steeped in ritual atmosphere
And not without poetry and pathos
We dreamers of tomorrow and yesterday
Suffer...

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
The sweetness of giving....

The foreplay...

Folded secrets between her thighs
Like napkins
Concealed memories in the valley of her *******
She goes with the flow of life
A traveller
A Wildflower
A breath of *****

We - in love...
Upon our lips, a thousand lies

A moonlit beach
The starlit sea,
Surrender and Serenity
Our Spiritual path..
We from the old Magic...
From unseen times, faded memories
Many times upon our knees
We surrendered
Just loved -

Made life poetry
Listened through your screams
Simply naked Humanity...

Bring your empty cups
Your disappointments
Your failures.
Bring your betrayals
Your masks
All that
Dwells in you
Surrender to your own poverty,
Restore  -
The belief in your own guidance
Go within for answers
Nothing
Found in a book
Heard in a sermon

Give your soul
for love
Surrender to the Universe..
Lay your most precious possessions on  the table
And roll the dice...

Be the Art -The Artists....

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
A chilling sort of grey
A dawning smile
Your strangeness and disillusioned ways
Within - you've set your blackest flag
Your flowers of dissolution
Consume virtue with a breath
Belong neither here nor on Earth
Stranded on stellar shores
The tangled spindles of your uncovered soul...

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
There was an Age undreamed of
The Promised Land of oblivion
Threatening oblivions of *** and death
It swims through the Earth,
Like a mermaid of the soil
Sources of the old morality
A night of indifference, apathy, chaos
When you get lost in love
Going into the dark
Out forever and ever
To be noticed by the universe of mad idealism,
Forbidden desires
Memories we can never rub away
All the ****** easeless torments for the unknowable,
My own irrefutable geography
Curled in the narrow monk's bed
Flooding across the rough wooden floor
Into the old soil of the garden,

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
I am searching for faith
The good and the beautiful
The mechanics of culture
Engineers of the soul
The bullet-headed many
Like their God of creation
Permanent and temporary
A lily in their medieval hand
This revolt against fate
Born of humiliation
This madness of art - Fickle, Freckled
Is the heart of man
His pillars of smoke
The face of the deep
Our primitive nothing
That grand perhaps
The big issue of our times

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
Hell's sumptuous sweat surrounds my soul..

Sacred was this space
Sacred were the sweet strains
The noble pipes
Like those champions of chivalry
I slipped into sleep
Plunged into the deep waters
Your jaws around my waist
A brain so wild
Our serpent *** betrayed
Love pierced its eyes
So much evil survives....

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
I was hoeing
Words of tongue and pen
Despair, from the far side of absolute
The ceremony of consequences
So unequal, so unfair
I replaced one life with another
The rich man in his mansion
The poor man at his door
Baying for broken glass
The small change of illusions....

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
Our posturings
Our imagined self-importance
In our obscurity
This vastness
The great enveloping cosmic dark
The endless cruelties
How fervent their hatred
Their rivers of blood
Challenged by this point of pale light
This Earth
Where we make our stand.

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
I turned to Dionysus
His fury of intolerance
Begged madness
Be my guide
My disease of thought
These moods of mind
Sweet crazy conversations
Daydreams and misunderstandings
Madness and time and I have quarreled
Alone on the Siberian tundra
I heard the cries of the dead
Their soul's revealed on the wing of madness
Let me be mad
The madness of Absinthe
The wildest
Luxurious
Poets madness
No glory
No gallant last words
Filled with confusion
You seek treasure
There is only trash
Whimpering the question
Why?
When life itself seems lunatic
Who knows where madness lies?

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
Solemn hours,  that mock the night

The grey dawn
Paved the meadows with gentle odours..
These visionary flowers
Murmuring,  collecting tears.
This cradle to a memory
Calm and mild
Like friends - Once parted

His song now silent, the Spirit mute..

Gypsy
Gypsy Nov 2021
Our sinless souls
That form of faultless symmetry
This spirit of nature
The depth of the unbounded Universe
Peace - Happiness - Harmony
In darkness, that bursting bomb
That fearful calm
The wail of widowed love
Lifeless warriors, In deep silence
Spirit - Love
For a desolate society
The apology
From King's and Statesmen
Their spirit of politics
Life's smallest chord
Man's evil Nature
Sanctifies the sword
No shade, No shelter
For the stranger-soul
From sweeping storms
The statesman's game
Their hired Assassin's trade
With a nations rage
With the currency of..
Famine - Frenzy - Woe
Then sealed in gold and blood
Torn from a bleeding world
The Insect Tribes
Those generations, all germs of promise
Scattered across the forest soil
Youth - Integrity - Loveliness
Lie level with the earth
Destined to decay
That suicidal selfishness
Ceased to wage unnatural war
The cause and effect of tyranny
Poverty - Wealth
Dead to all love
Yields -
To the harmony and happiness of man
leaves nothing but the sordid
Lust of Self.

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
The war's begun.
We are out here
The city
In its own coat of a thousand colors
This city of sorrow
Destroyed
Knowledge - dead
Europe in blood and ashes
The fragrance of prophets lost
The eye of the mute poet
In his quasi-mythical dimension
Serene seers
Silent sages
That monstrous belief that God has spoken
For those
I prayed until my tears were dry
Who will halt the aggression?
Who will wash your ****** walls?
Those prepared to die for the truth
The messengers of discomfort and sacrifice
The odd minority crying in the wilderness
Saints, who know they are sinners
Sinners, who think they are saints
The authorized servants of God
Who brings toys for the children
Who will save Christ?
A beautiful child mourning with downcast eyes
The pretended word of God in his mouth
Preaching publicly the doctrine of devils
From those who killed Christ.

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
Like dark horses
I could crawl inside the lyric
To the beat of a drum
The seed of every sin
Wrapped up in made-up
Sorrow, love, delight
This  quest for the zenith of happiness
A landscape for my emotions
From the realm of the senses
The pilots of grief
Rose in me like a flame
A harmony of sounds
Because that’s my home!
In the vast void.

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
Sorrow - Immortalized in dust

Humble proud faces
Sacred ceremonies
Those spiritual celestial treasures

A thousand torches, that never sleep
This endless moment
Caught in the crossfire of time.

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
When something breathes beside you in the dark
Swallowed up in being
Some huge thing at rest
The stillness from which the mystic approaches
An abstract and negative
As king - as Warrior
Inside our own head
Opaque by its very fullness
Like Lucifer in Meredith's sonnet
A deep and noble source in the mind
The inward unity of its spirit
The living fountain of divine energy
This spatio-temporal Nature
Moving in space and time.

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
An ocean of boundaries
The infinite totality of thinking
The umbilical conflict
Pregnant with the seed of purpose
A trivial slave
An obscure shadow!
Moving into the unknown

Those who travel but never really arrive...

Individually,
Inspired,
Imaginative
Their memory is myrrh
Their presence,
Frankincense and flowers.


Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
The curves of your lips
Dyed with the colour of thoughts
What's left of kisses - Wounds
The wisdom of our ancestors
Terrifying and monstrous masks
On the hearts of humanity.

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
I have seen a land shining with goodness
I have seen a land bright with truth
A land where peace reigns
Love like a fire from every hearth
Compassion flows like deep water over the land
Above comfort, pleasure or selfish gain
I have seen a land of ancient myths
The beginning of all peoples
Once beautiful and brave
Like light and cloud shadows
I have seen the dragons on the wind of morning.

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
Bored, uninformed
Like an outdated explosion
Tense, musty,  forced silence
Going down the long slide -  voices without faces
Large scale versus, seemingly at random
So permanent, blank and true
We avoid them as unlucky places
Where promises are kept...

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
Let Marble be the cold floor
upon which your memories walk.

As cities are fed our young,
To quench their thirst for life,
The machine, rusty and dying
Screams for more,
Cries out,
With its every last breath,
Death...

We push further into the abyss,
Deeper into oblivion,
Our only moon,
A tide,
Made ready for the turning...

Eyes,
Blind to all they see,
Watch forests fall,
Asphalt snakes,
Twist through jungles
All consuming,
Ever ready...

Drunken tales of gods
Pass over distilled lips,
Into a jungle of belief,
In these Taverns of futility,
Tongues,
Dripping wet.
Bring forth lies

Let history tell it all
Let history be your epitaph.

Face me
On this day of reckoning,
sing for me
Of a truth from within,
Let me hear your song,
Sung from a heart so true.
Sing,
As men once sang,
Of conquests,
Of maidens fair,
Bring from within,
To the forefront of your souls
An everlasting peace.

Let those with hearts speak,
Let the charity fanfare be silent,
Let man be one,
Let Nature's reality be reborn as a whole,
Those seeking power and wealth be cast aside.

Let us take back our fields,
Plant seeds,
To grow true,
Let the young run wild
On fields
Where the only sound,  the sound of life
Let the hunters be extinct,
Let the machines die,
Let man be king,
Woman be queen,
Seek truth,
Around fires of warmth.

Let the forests be our home,
A canvas of stars be our roof,
Let the whale sing of oceans,
Let the Eagle sing of skies,
Let mice sing of greatness
Let man be humble,
Trend softly.
Walk this earth,
On a tightrope of peace..

Let this be a warning,
Of mans mortality.
Let the storyteller reign supreme

His story ..
Long dead, long forgotten,
Pass through your realm of dreams

His stories tell of hunger -
His stories tell of War.

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
I've played cards with Plato
Dined with Edgar Alan Poe
I lived in places of pain ,
Places of sorrow
I shared a cell
With men nobody wants to know
I've seen the writing on the wall
The epitaph of fools
I've seen history made
I've seen history fall
I've heard old men beg for youth
And youth beg for the grave
And somewhere in-between
The thunder calls

I've been up on the plateau
Where wise men talk with the wind
I've seen the fading light of God
Heard the tales of children
Around the campfires at night
Stories of monsters
Darkness and light
I've watched the flames dance
A dance of memories and rage
And somewhere in-between
The thunder calls

I've ridden' your wild horses
From the concrete jungle
To the wild wild wilderness
I've turned to see your beauty
Echo in some strangers eye
Then fade with age
I've heard the old woman say
To late is the day you die
And somewhere in-between
The thunder calls

I'll drown my sorrows
In this cup of poison
Stand and howl at the moon
Beg for your forgiveness
And I'll crawl for you
Across broken glass and bones
And I'll crawl for you
Like only a man can crawl..

And somewhere in-between
The thunder calls...

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
In our corner of the Forest
The snows fall  
The white winds blow
The lone Wolf dies
Born at this moment
In this time of despair
Grief and bereavement
The reality of our powerlessness
A single soul dwelling in two bodies
That deep part of you
Touched our wounds with your warm and tender hand
The kindest, noblest, and best of things
Always together in spirit
Bound by enormous affection
From the depths of the distance within us

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
In this age of beauty
We dance digital
An ongoing beat
Forever circling
Never ending.
We sing of genetics
Seek immortality
Like children seeking a future.
We tread paths
Once trodden by fools
With the sweep of a thought.
Brush aside reason..
We surf the net.
We build bigger and better
Displace nature
With castles of rubble
Nests of concrete,
For vulture-men
We devastate
Our souls  
Give begging bowls of hope
To those born
Or yet to come.
We swim puddles of greed.
We cut our noses to spite our faces.
We turn green to grey
Roses to dust.
We advertise pebbles as gold.
We are surplus to requirement...

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
Here I am trying to live
The death within me
My terror of intimacy
In this destruction
I truly feel alive
My kief,
Hashish
My ***** pipe
******
My drug
My vice
Choked and pained
My Religion
An approval addict
The Moth
The Flame
Dormant like flowers in the desert
Addiction
A work in progress
A refuge
A solace
The greatest evils
The foolishness
Self-destructive martyrdom
Then the consequence of digging a hole
Crawled into my brain.

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
Time - that restless Spheres

Drives -
The gravity of the world...
The flowers to fade..

Sweet passion's lie..

To cancel all our vows
From life to death - Beyond this mercenary drudge
The rewards of sin
The metaphysics of magic
These omnipotent studious Artisans
Emperors and Kings
Stretched the minds of man
To deceive ourselves...
In a world of profit and delight
A strange philosophy
Harsh, contemptible and vile
An Altar and a Church
The regents of a perpetual night
Vain fancies and despair
Our revolving door of time..

Gypsy
Gypsy Sep 2022
Today I am mostly drifting aimlessly on the turbulent stream of idle discourse

Locked in this ideological echo chamber
Forever traveling on a digital sea of conforming tranquillity
Fossilized wholly in a great renaissance of public shaming
Becoming scarecrows to frighten away natural reality
While we peer out at existence
From inside our digital caverns
Serfs - Digitized
Persecutors and persecuted,
Hunters and hunted
In the grip of the powers of darkness
Strawmen,
Spectres,
Artificial rainbows
Systems of highly organized ****** and oppression
Susceptible to all manner of lies
We succumb to the most reptilian of our fears.

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
You are immortal
Imperceptible insects
Sacred you shall be
With love beyond boundaries
Deeper than oceans

Gypsy
Gypsy Sep 2021
The secret of our seed
The thousand children
The storms endured
The world rustles
Lived out the secret of her seed to the very end
Every step is birth
Every step is death
All the suffering
Every grave is mother, our eternal mother
Reveals her naked death-wound to the sun
Undeterred by particulars, this ancient law of life
Home is neither here nor there
Home is within you
Home is nowhere at all - escaping
A longing to wander the  tears our hearts

Gypsy
Gypsy Sep 2023
Born -
Here on Earth - Into the glow of the firelight
Close to the end
Of doctrine and teachings magical nectar
Sunlight - shadowy glens
Drinking Mountain tops
Chill winds from the forest
The moonlit deserts - darkness swallowed
As the low thunder sounded
Bloomed on the Canyon walls
Died cursing existence
Fire spit - from off in the dark
Swallowed me up - froze me solid
Wailed and howled
Like a banshee coming for the Dead
Lost in the shuffle
The shattered Spirit of Mankind...

G.
Gypsy Dec 2020
Who will **** us children forever
Cover the cheeks of this world with tears
With horror
With fear
To stand at the portals of the tomb,
The vestibule of eternity
Consigned to eternal damnation
A gulph of devouring flames
In and beyond oneself and the universe.

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
You rage and scream
With all your world-destroying fury
Like the fading tides that dance daily with the moon
Within your furnace heart, you burn in your own flame
Searching the mistaken reality of your old identity
You reach through the night to crush the shadow
Observing and engaging the energy of the world
A storehouse of knowledge and wisdom
We can only surrender to its mystery.

Gypsy
Gypsy Aug 2023
Obscene whining - of infernal discordant music
Worn, with a strange lust
Whilst the floods menaced Earth
Like A Tibetan Mandala
All colours dazzling
Seeking the formless fire......   For Lust's sake
                                                     Let us Lust
                                                     For smoke's sake
                                                     Let us Smoke,....
The leeches of boredom
The pythons of poverty
The born and the unborn
Flamed up into mania's nameless Nature
Pure being - unveiled from the Matrix
The four walls of our Prison
Part of the Veils of matter
The ultimate reality appears out of oblivion
One super-subtle whisper
Slipping back to the Ancients
Like Faust to the Brocken
For ever driven darkly onward

There is nothing higher
There is nothing more
What is lost
Eternity can never restore...

Gypsy
Gypsy Oct 2022
Pathetically inadequate  
at being - Humanity
Idiotically primitive
In our destructive urges
Pathologically incapable
Of simply getting along -

We are - Humanity
The Doomsday Machine
Gypsy Dec 2020
I've crossed some kind of invisible line
Into considerations of death and annihilation
A strange place
A time for many words
A soul submerged in sleep
Suspended between was and will be
Where is the sense in these desperate dreams?
The tadpole before the frog,
The worm before the butterfly
More in tune with a tree than a keyboard
We open our eyes
The day is before us and ...
We become ourselves.

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
You pay in blood and soul
When the barrier between the worlds is a whisper
When magic - old magic, sings
The truth of the Earth itself
Lures the Spirits from their tombs
From the dying pyre in the darkest forest
Where once I prayed for forgiveness
The sad clouds scatter
Calling things that don't have names
To have a life of their own,
Not an existence doled by others
The Tree of Life
The Garden of Eden
Their shadows come from the light
Lives with me, deep inside
Standing comfortably within its mystery
In tune with nature,
In tune with ourselves
In alignment with our all
The essence that can bind
A collective force reawakening on the Earth.

A terrorist spirituality
In a perpetual state of fright
A sappy spirituality
Such a benign teddy bear
An awesome, incomprehensible,
Unwieldy Mystery.

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
Eyes -
Everywhere,
Hands -
Waiting..

She wanders absentmindedly,
She lights a cigarette in a cafe,
Concern rivets her to the ground and self
Her wings are clipped
A thousand fine bonds tie her to the Earth
In this headiness of freedom and discovery
Her spirit in an empty sky
Unique and sovereign..

She must
Find the world anew
Become a creator,
A free movement of transcendence.

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
We think
The fire eats the wood

We are wrong

The wood
Reaches out to the flame

The fire
Licks at what the wood harbors

The wood
Gives itself away to that intimacy

The manner
In which we and the world meet each new day.

Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
There will be Words of Revelation

Endings and Beginnings
Cracks in old friendships
Moments of experience
Chalk lines on concrete...
Some sort of natural justice...
I've cursed this power
Oppressed with slavish fear
Religious tyranny
Adrift, unable to navigate
I could do anything now
Anything I wanted.
I had nothing left to lose
Somewhere - past the End of the World
Infinity
An end to this journey
Death.
What a brief word
Extinguishing of life
Of love
We all end up where we started
This **** must finish

Empty -
Every ocean of life
Flows..
Into a dead planet …

Gypsy

— The End —
