Vague -October 2017-
I have been vague all day
No aim, no anchorage nor ground
This hazy feeling, has hunted me all day like a hound
Hear this pebble falling
In a space undeground, it's a big space echoing
All those subtle dealings
Leave their marks inside your bones
Your ancestors will they sing
Stories of their new homes
Stories of their old ones (an ocean away)
Hear the landscape of their tongues
Pouring down the mouths of the mothers while they work (sing and pray)
Casting spells so that you get to grow, clear and strong
Raising children together, thoughtful devotion
Working hard, make it better, right up all the wrongs
Looking forward to meet the next generation
Clear out the poison that has been dripping down you entire bloodline
Then spend some time with your neighbours' pain and see that it's just as bright
Call up on the strenght of your ancestors they'll respond with fire
Sending for you the qualities your heart most needs and desires
Needs and desires, needs and desires, needs and desires, needs and desires, needs and...
What your heart needs and desires, what your heart needs and desire....
So that you can be with one another
So that you're home at last becomes all together
So that you can be with one another
So that you're home at last becomes all together...
You're home
You're home
You're home...
All together you are home

Procrastination -November 2017-
Has anyone noticed where i put down my fire
Been looking everywhere, i swear, i swear
I'm asking for these days i'm feeling rather tired
Even the naps won't help, and i swear, i swear
Mmh-mmh, need some of yours
Can i be open to the man you are
Mmh-mmh, this indecision
Some birds are perching, holding back their songs
What will they sing
Will it be said in a language you know, one you understand
And what about your voice
Do you think it will reach its destination, will be understood
Aah-mmh, this apple tree, growing each season
What a marvelous spread
Aah-mmh, the crown of its head, braving all weathers
No resistance, no dread
I truly miss you
You did the best with everything you had, i know that now
But can you feed me
Feed me with that fire i really need
The one you hold inside
Has anyone noticed where i put down my fire
Been looking everywhere, i swear, i swear
I'm asking for these days i'm feeling rather tired
Even the naps won't help, and i swear, i swear
Mmh-mmh, need some of yours
Can i be open to the woman you are
Mmh-mmh, this indecision
Some birds are perching, holding back their songs
What will they sing
Will it be said in a language you know, one you understand
And what about your voice
Do you think it will reach its destination, will be understood
Has anyone noticed where i put down my fire
Been looking everywhere, i swear, i swear
I'm asking for these days i'm feeling rather tired
Even the naps won't help, and i swear, i swear

Sagittarius A - November 2017-
Some swear that it is
The most mysterious of all
Stars that are collapsing
Darkness, nobody knows who you are
Right at the edge of your mouth
Gas and matter are pulled in
Who can escape your force
Blackness, just how hungry is your core
Even light stands no chance
On its path to eternity
Swallowed beyond event horizon
Blindness, nobody knows how deep you are
From our limited point of view
Your size is impossible to grasp
A few million times the size of Earth
Vastness, nobody knows how old you are
Monumental presence you are
Home in the heart of each galaxy
Here nucleus of the Milky Way
Greatness, nobody knows how strong you are
What happens on the other side
Unlike the dark side of the Moon
A place truly unfathomable
Strangeness, tell me just how wild you are

Toebones - August 2017 -
Toebones under my porch
An animal has fallen
Its fur was brown and black and cream
It had a good life or so it seems
When i die, i want you to say the same
That i had a good life
That i was scared and brave
Look around, into the sacred the profane
For this piece of me that is bound
To come back one rainy day
Toebones under my porch
I see that fate is calling
Its lines are like a tangle of trees
Follow you around, guarding its keep
When you die, our world will never be the same
Your spirits they will ride
Upon our grieving hearts, within your name
Understand, the light will find you untamed
And your enemies they will rise
Chanting peace upon your grave
Toebones under my porch
An animal has fallen
Forever wild roaming inside our dreams
It had a good life, and loved it deeply

Withbloom - Fall 2017 -
Withbloom! (x2)
The river flowing
Its waters are rumbling all right
The tide coming in
Will drown you if you don't fight
This power breathing (withbloom!)
Within you strong until you die (withbloom!)
Divine opening
The outer space, the yearning shrine
This time for dancing (withbloom!)
With the strangest of animals (withbloom!)
Understand it
Each of its limbs are calling out
**Interlude**
Fingers a-falling (withbloom!)
Upon all of your skin and mind (withbloom!)
Transcendent doings (haya-haya-hayaya-hayaya)
Will almost hurt sometimes it cries
Now the weeping (withbloom!)
Will course through you and break your spine (withbloom!)
Distinct solace (haya-haya-hayaya-hayaya)
The brazen wings carry the light
Regal softening (withbloom!)
Will flow out of your throat and mouth (withbloom!)
You'll awaken (haya-haya-hayaya-hayaya)
A great distance from me and mine

Awkward Isn't The Wrong Beat - Summer 2015 + Fall 2017 -
Boring's not a crime, awkward isn't the wrong beat
Such a beautiful life, that is that is to live
Mothers on a shrine, giving to the mystery
Such a beautiful life, that is that is to lead
The practice of easy loving
Or how do i find my way back
Back to this friendly balance, this place of rest for my mind
In joy, in doubt, in powerless anger
Appreciating all of the movements without questioning my motives
Without second-guessing everything,
Everything
The practice of easy loving, this experience of simply being
No more racing to the future or spending too much time with the past
No more pushing or holding back
Anchoring in my breath this place of rest
I am here and present now, in space and time yeah just like that
Yeah, just like that
The practice of easy loving, asking for what i need
Listening deeply to what the world has to teach me
Standing as strong as an oak tree and knowing wholeheartedly
That even when fear is around we get just to be
Yeah, love to be

The Fig Wasp Sting - August 2017 -
If you go to an orchard for something weird
A piece of fruit that is squishy and not too big
There is a story i just heard i want you to hear
And it has been going on for thirty-four million years
I'm sure you know that some plants like to eat animals
For their carnivorous nature this is quite normal
But there's a tree out there defying the plant kingdom
And that is why i want you to hear this very strange song
The wasp wasn't dead
Stung you in the head
How swollen is your mouth
You have regrets no doubt
The way i hear it's a symbiotic relation
Mainly it pertains to inflorescence pollination
You see the seeds in the figs resemble ovaries
And to get pollinated they need someone just like a bee
Chorus
The queen fits very thightly inside the fruit
She lays her eggs and departs trusting that they will bloom
And when they do the new offspring gets busy right away
A little sex in the morning a good start of the day
And then the males start on their tunneling duty
They dig away so their counterpart can be set free
But while the females leave the fruit to go out pollinating
The males are digested within the body of the fig
Chorus (x2)
Watch out for figs you all!

Blah, Blah, Blah In Your Head - November 2017 -
Blah, blah, blah in your head
A story's repeating itself
Blah, blah, blah doesn't help
But you can't let it go no
Blah blah blah in your mind, same story is robbing you blind
Blah, blah, blah of the world and its generous wonders
I have seen what it does to get strongly fixated
Sometimes even draws blood as the thought rules the day
Could be something as small as the pebble in your boot
A familiar whisper of a voice saying that nobody loves you
Could also feel like a waterfall that is following you around
Seemingly drenching up all of your joy
But the dam you build won't keep you from drowning
Blah blah blah in you head sometimes you wish you were dead
Blah blah blah what a shame
For this foe can be tamed yes
Blah blah blah with your mind
Oh i wish for you to be be kind
To your rattles and your cluncks
Those are here to stay yes
I have seen what it means to be incarcertated
All your limbs might be free but your head's not cooperating
It might be saying to you that you're not good enough
That is knows of your future, in fact you think it knows a lot
About who you really are as a person on the inside
Well listen you don't have to trust it the space inside you's much more wise
Blah blah blah in your head you wish you were someone else
Blah, blah, blah doesn't work everybody's tender
Blah, blah, blah in your mind
Thoughts are taking up all your time
Imagine what could be done if you could let them go now

Let It Come

Let it come -June 2017-
You say that you are sorry
When there's nothing to be sorry for
And so often you worry
But if you have to fall then you'll just fall
'Cause in the end it's for real
The reason you have been patient for
Within you the glory
The devotion inside your heart
You have no memory
Of the time before you were born
When somewhere your humanity
Was existing in another form
A time of great simplicity
When no thoughts would make you stand apart
Do you recall the glory
No division, no invisible walls
Let it come to you,
It just knows exactly where you are
Let it come through you,
It just knows exaclty who you are
I hear you sing harmonies
To dispell your fear of the dark
To conjure up new ennemies
When you can trust the ones on your chart
'Cause they only want for you to see
That all this loving was there from the start
Can you feel the glory
The redemption is already yours
Let it come to you,
It just knows exactly where you are
Let it come through you,
It just knows exaclty who you are

On the Highway - June 2017 -
On the highway, going to the airport
Driving not so fast
While the clouds are turning grey
I don't know what i am really going to find
And my heart it is so scared of being wrong
What animal will you have become while you were away
What is the shape of your lungs
On the highway, back from the airport
Still driving not so fast
While the clouds are turning dark
Oh I don't know what i am really going to find
And my heart it is so scared of being wrong
What animal will you have become while you were away
What is the shape of your lungs
Off the highway, finally made it home
The place where i'm going to stay
While the clouds are turning to light
Oh I don't know what i am really going to find
And my heart it is so scared of being wrong
What animal will you have become while you were away
What is the shape of your lungs
Mmh-mmh...(x4)
