(best watched  LOUD in high quality mode)



I went on a journey
I went on a journey
I sought mana of feeling
empowerment for those
who would share my journey
I prayed for mana of feeling,
empowerment of feeling,
for those who would share my journey
I prayed to the spirits of the lowerworld
for empowerment
with love for you

Hard Man

I wish I was a hard man,
who men look at in fear.
I wish I was a hard man,
who women palpitate for in fear.
I wish I was a hard man
so friends wouldn’t call for help
in the middle of the night.
I wish I was a hard man,
so women wouldn’t love me,
as a friend.
Then I wouldn’t have the responsibility I have,
of love.

Vermin

Fear not the karmic consequences of vermin extermination
In previous lives ants were accountants
cockroaches were lawyers
fleas were CEOs of insurance companys and
rats were right wing politicians.
Their destiny is to die
(preferably painfully)
so kill them
they know the reason why

The Housepainter



He strips away the old
unlike an onion,
each layer was a story
stories of lives, loves and deaths
they tantalise
the defects of character
he fixes are an argument between
beauty is there
was there

until he erases the walls memories

Rhyming senryu

Five rhymes for the times
Seven vodkas, ice and limes
Our  crimes for five dimes

Divination of an African Sunrise

Dancing Trails
rise up
with sweet smelling perfumes,
shaping and recanting
in all different guises.
Beautiful plumes
dart through the air
spiraling to
the bigger picture.
Divining in light.
Divining in dream.
You came to me
in sweet smelling perfumes
unfurling mist,
dancing in trails,
                    racing into ash.

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Complete in darkness
Alone at last
Just music and
Memories of the past
So many regrets
All the pain
So many tears
Falling again
Around and around
Where does it end
Up and down
How did it begin
The truest of love
Ripped from the heart
Forever fated
To be apart
Beneth my feet
The world crumbles
Inside my head
The voices rumble
Beside me you were
Supposed to stand
Now the darkness
Even conceals your hand
All alone
In darkness lost
So very high
