Nature

Delicate rumble
crisp gentle breeze
Slow rolling thunder
Shakes around me

A leaf spirals downward
from up in the tree
Circling on the wind
not unlike me

There's nature out here
wild, for all to see
But the nature inside me
is deeper indeed
Ghost Town

In my soul,
a thousand years
or thirty, what's the difference?

I've known things, seen things
but what's it all for? When will it matter
and who want's to know?

I'm walking in a ghost town.
Full of dead people, they're
awake but asleep.

Driven by forces
but out of tune with the flow.
Lost in the tumult, onward they go

Their smiles are bright
hanging vacant below
silent, angry eyes.

Get me out of this ghost town
and away from the freaks.
I can't stand them and they don't see me.

Flying over mountains, and
swimming in the sea, I'm climbing
through temples, burning days with ease.

Stars streak down above me,
while hiding below, unimaginable
creatures try not to show.

Waterfalls, sunsets and
big shady trees are
the things I believe.

Because my drinking, my dancing
and singing, weave me the mat on
which my soul will sleep, in the world of the spirits.
Waterfall

Coal gray rocks, vibrate
all coated in green
and sing a magic song
that whispers my name.

There are places, that
the earth tries very hard
to keep protected,
and only for the most determined

reveals her secrets.
This is one of those places.
and as the moment holds,
time sighs, and you are here.

All these months, and
a thousand miles from my hand
you're still with me
on this climb.

My foot slips, rights itself
and I continue on the path.
Dank shadows, still waters
my mind wanders to...

Up ahead, and here alone
this earth she sings
of this place, fear willing
we'll call our own.
Mystery

Fingerprints, upon all
that I am inside.
Molded into clay
squeezed too tight.

Memories that linger
excitement and fear, swim
amongst neurons
to tickle my spine.

I shiver, from these
chemicals inside.
With me forever
I make a pact tonight:

Asleep and alone,
I'll find the light
in these knowings, as
life's mysteries unfold.
