21st century rebels
Reflecting a faded vision of the past
Creatures with comforts
"civilised society"
The pain
Those stars
Simply dictate

Go home

Find your talent
Exploit it
Change happens

Join the movement of individual thought

Through times gone by
The injustices of humanity meld
Presenting our current state
Fear and dismay

Peace and love

Are
The only hope
We have
To create trust with our universe

but I digress
too many distractions like colours in a peacocks tail
lead me from seeing the real thing
camouflage is only skin deep

Within a music of connections
Resonating freely in time
Notes appear
Moments of memory that were thought lost
Gone
Forever
Moving through gaps in a cosmic ocean
Reappearing in the dreams of someone new

This is the symphony of being
Connected with the new/old
A dosage of life never repeated in the same time

This is the Uni-Verse

It seems history repeats itself because no one listens

You

Have the right

To be

Do not think
Clear your mind
Feel what happens
See what you find
Nothing to do
Nowhere to go
The speed of life
Not fast but slow
Take your time
Or someone will
The world will go on
Moving or still

She Strode The Catwalk

With Poise And Grace

(and a few others who promised not to talk)

Suddenly

Her Hair

Fell Over Her Face

Trip Hazards Are Everywhere

Oh what a strange world
Where we don't know

What we do

To create a life that is loving and true
The aching hearts versus correctness of speech
Lead me to think that it's not within reach
But then
Suddenly
Not forgetting her talents
Nature is there to reset the balance

You may wish to live life
As one who has died
But do not repeat
The things that they tried

In the history of the world
How many of us are worthy of a single word

True expression should not be limited by a rule book

My thoughts are a lost ocean
Seeking passage through winding canyons
Leading back to the source
Not the source of creation
As perceived by the regimented structure of modern life
Modern life that views man's achievements as a eureka moment
A life that requires an explanation for all occurrences
No, Oh NO
I must climb deeper to the peak of this inverted mountain
To a time of wonder
No boundaries
Unprogrammed
Almost within reach
In this depth
Lies the truth

Shrouded in the material
The inner child appeased
Perhaps
Betrayed by dreams
Probably
Alone in expectation

Be patient
Take you're time
Like the clouds passing
Holding together
Pushed by the wind
Unperturbed by their destination
Knowing their place no frustration
The distance travelled is unimportant
The journey unfolds as it should

I fall
My shell is cracked
Will my life escape ?

Apparently I've been pre approved
My profile assessed while being viewed
I seem to be a decent gent
But they might have missed the time I spent
At Her Majesty's Pleasure for a small discretion
Obtaining money by fraudulent deception

Pain on the window
Reflecting my luck
Pour some more coffee into my cup
Look around the tables
No one on their own
Usual conversation
Gossip with phones
I'm thinking..................

In the night
I stand alone
Free
From all
Who do not condone
The lifestyle
Of a sixties kid
Who wants to do what his heroes did

Bring forth the animals
With such importance of identity
That they defile beauty
What is inside cannot be contrived
By an outer layer of paint and ego
For once upon a future world
Who we are
Will be all in the mind
And everyone
Too afraid to tell
The true story of our disgusting passage
To preconceived living
Erases themselves
From history

Awake
Asleep
Life through closed eyes

This is our way

Use it up
Move on to the next
Throw it away
Traits
In bred
Human
Ego
We can never have too much
On our plates
Even when
The pantry is almost bare

WHAT WILL WE DO ??

Rewrite the damage
We shall start anew

Here in the animal kingdom
Contradiction is not unique
Only the insects know the truth

Dawn
Quiet(ish)
Streets are
Empty(ish)
Just an old fox heading home after a good night
Howling laugh
Those cats didn't now what hit them
Yeah

Sometimes people and society don’t allow us to be who we are
We have to comply with unwritten traditions
Mass insecurity tries to hold back individual growth
You cannot do this
You cannot do that
It may affect the lives of others
(But)
Life affects the path of all on a daily basis
No assistance is required
Follow our individual drive and travel together
Work with what we have
Instead of against
Lose our fear of reliance
Experience the event

Imagine
Paradise before thought
Fresh air, clean water, wide open spaces
A place of welcome and harmony
The place of your dreams
The place you are starting to see
WAIT
LOOK
The obsession to dominate and destroy
STOP
NO
You are about to arrive
You do not want to be programmed and controlled
But it is too late
You are born

I arrive at the mountain top
Nothing but cloud

Events deliver memories
  Mind games                
     Broken

This path is overgrown but I walk it with repetitive ease
Gone are the days lost in time revealing somewhere new
When the challenge to overcome the weeds and thorns excited me
Tomorrow forever
It has been a while now since I was here
A place that was the starting point for hope
I had belief in the stars
Destiny was my mistress and she could lead me anywhere
Temptation was the thrill of the unknown
I could not fail
Until
She left
Following the new found youth to betray simplicity for fate
As I dwell on the history of a band of fools
Mirrored in nations
Thinking that there was peace in the goal of achievement

My reason to
Be
Must
Be
Explained to
Be
My justification to
Be
Me
Si
Oui
Hee Hee
Strange
Could
Be

This is reality
The summer
Only an escape
Yeah
Summer living
Some just existing
Where do we hope to be
Always looking to escape
Wanting for something better
Will we grasp it when it comes
Or let it slip through
Ahh
Here comes the wind again
Stirring the sand
Clearing the footprints

Look through me
Far into the future
What do you think you see
What does the vision nurture
Is it to be expected
That all will be as should
Or have you just projected
The pattern that history provides as food

I wish I was there

THEN

Not now

The magic

Has been stolen

I arrive
Leave a footprint
And
Judge myself

Through the days of haze and sadness
When nothing seems clear
I reach into my heart and know that you are still here

Dimensionally adjacent
To my "first world" angst
Life is on edge
Existing
Perhaps
Not spoken
But seen
The dream
Is
To
Survive

Broken bones
Apology attacks
Misplaced love

Too late

For happy
Ever after

I invert the Yin and Yang
To produce a total lack of clarity
In my schizophrenic dream
Of a clearer world

I guess it’s me
I don’t fit in
Expecting a lot
Getting nothing
Where do I go wrong
All of the time
It starts so well
I’m doing fine
Order my first few from the bar
I’m in the spotlight I’m the star
But all of a sudden
Or so it seems
People avoid me
I’m not their scene
I do my best to play the game
Where do I go wrong
I ask again?

Perfection sounds like a lovely destination
I wonder who will be the first to visit ?

Hurry..
Let's save some time
You mean,, put it in a bank??
How can we get it back?????

the wild ones are always within
suppressed by modernity
longing for release
it's the way we were meant to perceive complexity
not with rationalisation
but with spontaneity and emotion

Welcome to Earth
Please proceed to arrivals to be labelled, categorised and indexed
A life plan will be prescribed
For our full acceptance please provide an economic return
You are then free to live within the status sector selected
Welcome to Earth

Do you just agree with opinion
To keep the peace
That suits the nation

Or defend your belief

Despite the threat
Of isolation

When you go
Will you be mourned
Or left in the mass grave
Of the misinformed

Fields of flowers reflecting the sun
Days of laughter filled with fun
Times are changing since you went away
But I won't forget yesterday

Depths rising
Lifting the blue horizon
Tower of dreams
Seems
Unreachable
Heart soars
Screaming from the shore
Courage of belief
Relief
Unstoppable

The world will not survive
If love is left denied
Hate is so insane
Realise this
And
We
Will
Win
The
Game

Silent life
Peaceful destiny

Wide open spaces
Far away places
Where the sun rests on it's cloudy bed at the top of the high peak
The thoughts of dreams
Of maybe tomorrow schemes
As if we have forever to achieve all that we seek
This journey we take
That we constantly break
Lazy work rising to the fore
Civilised heart
Failing to start
Living behind a closed door

Perhaps

This is our forever
Our whatever

No longer waiting for the end to come

Philanthropy can reflect purity
It can also hide injustice
