On morning walk, there comes a moment of great impulse,
Like one before a grand moment of seizure, or more frequently a
Sneeze.

It comes out like the boom of cannons in war movie,
No, like fireworks at Japanese summer festival, no-

Like butterflies drizzling maple syrup on toasted leaf.

Like the final touch of paint brush on public artwork.

Like the clapping of two wood blocks on bar thirty six,
Second movement of yesterday’s evening concert.

Yes, that’s how it is.

There is water under the mountains,
A stream hidden in the dark.
Misty or perhaps scorchingly dry
But there lives a stream.

There is a fossil under the mountains,
A long time ago, since when?
Hidden or sealed until eternity
But there lives someone’s ancestor.

There is gold under the mountains,
Too deep to find, too dark to explore.
Its value nobody to assess
But there lives a precious stone.

There is a community under the mountains,
Forgotten or never found.
Mysterious and veiled by our great
Trigonic stature, whose bed shifts
Not one bit, as they say.

But there is too much under the mountains,
Too mystical or too dull.
The hidden side is too poor to be left
Under the mountains.
Coming from the questions of for whom I would move mountains for.

At times, I feel shocked by the fact that
Clowns are all just simple-sometimes grim-people wearing the
Harsh mask of a unduly high smile;
Every time you smile, it’s the same ****** muscles that contract, but
Remember to not simply smile like a clown.

Weather wasn't perfect,
Cancelled some, finding improvements everywhere;
Would they like it
?
This special annual event: people gather to make an unforgettable experience and feel hot in the chest, waterfall down their cheeks...

Things going out of plan
piled top on top inside me with invisible stress
That even I wasn't aware of
until my waterfall broke as well.

It was a waterfall with warm flowing water
that accelerated and soothed in many moments.
A waterfall not anticipated, not expected
But memorable.

Deep at night, hearing each others stories
Brings more tears.
"I might start coming again..."
"Felt true worship for the first time in many years..."

It was an experience and a lesson,
First time directly I have felt this.
He will fill us and can work the most miraculously despite our weakness and physical worldly problems in plans.

i hope i change and grow
time goes so fast and i am pretty slow

make my heart hot like fire the last minute of praise
then i will know you are with me right now and will

if not
i will still know you are with me right now and will

In his kingdom, rejoicing.
It is my greatest and only wish.

Be up early -
spread spread the fire
after gathering together to burn

let me not forget this
leave behind, go in, speak -

All gases dissolve and flow like a stream,
They pass through nets of all kind and through
nests of sleeping birds or across the giant ocean where
fish pop up once every now and then to breathe, they rely on
gases in the air like every one of us and like every one of life above
the land we reign.

Exceptions are present here and there,
One, a gas insoluble  in this worldly and selfish planet
but always longed upon
