Nature, chaotic machine


Move quickly, spin and whirl into the depths of humanity
This is the time to jump and fly off the edge of shaking mountains
This is the one opportunity to soar and at once dive to the deepest depths
But not only this

The greatest of all is our foundations in love
And we have it all to give the whole world
To cancel out the fuck ups lest we become the fuck ups
To wish that even one more person could change their opinion of life as suffering or boredom

Run out and risk it all, for the happiness of humanity
Come with me, set up a free life whilst we still can
Before we are all bored and convinced possession is perfection

How can you own something when you are cradled in a land you do not understand?
There are no gods in this world of institution
Step outside, into the warmth of the sunlight
Wade through the snow
On the peaks of the earth you will find the face of god
Staring back at you from the depths of the star-scarred night sky

What is the use of life-saving medicine and amazing technology
If we are not using it to experience real life?
Lower your screen, and we will laugh together again.

Horses under a heavy sky


There is a field in front of you
And you are walking into a red sun
It is bright and you shield your eyes
There is heaviness in the air
You come to a stop and draw breath
Lingering smells remind you of earlier years
And above this golden playground
The crackling sky ignites
Shivers run from your soft, dirty footprints
To warm memories at the back of your mind
This is time working out
A natural affinity to your animism
No more grey skies and red bricks
Replace them with horses under a heavy sky.

Piquancy


I think be real to yourself
Don’t hate yourself
Consequently hating others

Our aspirations are all different
Well you wouldn’t dream of my dreams
And to me that seems impossible

I think be real to yourself
Because movement in one colour
Does not mean escape from another

Psychology is subjective
Binary conclusions are unrealistic
We float through existence

I am blue-minded in pink
Night-time skies alight
Framing reality in greyscale

The golden sun sets again
And in silence I roam through empty worlds
Wondering what death means
If anything at all.
