We shall

( shall not we ? )

Live or die ?



:::


Today

Heavy

With the weight of infinite destruction.

And moral decay

And mass ignorance

And total distraction

Even from our distorted perceptions

( Live or die ? )


Shall we keep pretending we can't see !

Shall we ?

Or

Shall not we ?

Keep pretending not to see ?


••


The puppets keep moving down the street


We wonder ( really )

Who

Pulls the strings

Soldier boy


walking thru the rain


You are
                     Lost in your world


BUT YA STILL ARE SEEN !

( by boys like me )

••

Hey Hey

                                    Pretty soldier boy !

•                  

There for 1000 years




will you ever come home ?


Are you saving your country

From the Infidels ?


Or possibly doin          something else  ?

::::

war songs reign

;:;:

Calling you from your sleep

::

what is the purpose ?

What is the full realty ?


Best you know all things and so  very well


Before you find yourself out there

In some *******

... cool breezes ( it is so hard

To talk of loneliness )

::

we would **** each other

( & we do ! )

To avoid the agony

""

existential terror !

( we are so confused )

Oh dear dear child !

)(


There are some things we've got to do !

""

What  ?

( softly in due time

Dear child )

:::::: :::::


we are here in these

The days of great tyranny

The slaughter of the multitudes

The freedom of greed

//

We are human beings

In a state of great alienation

And all common ground

Is being stricken away



This is simply so dear child

And with it we must contend

)(

But we can do so with grace and love

And dignity

And even bring to earth

That peace that we all deserve

Again

;;;


( we'll get to it in due time !

Let us please go slow and easy )

;:;

well

Perhaps for now

Enoughs's been said

::


Time for me to take a rest

And renew my gentle breath

To a state of greater strength

Like a song
          

                                                  (  &

                                                           I was there  )


)(

& you ... (?)


I sensed your presence

In  the wild afternoons

A sense of freedom


A sense of joy


""


We love so  indifferently

We pick and choose !


We line the gutters with our pain

)(


The wild free mountain afternoons

Linger

We remember !

( we forget )

We lose our freedom

We find regret


••

The mountains remain


Let us go there
Again


Some wild free afternoon !

We shall recover

Our truest sense

We shall see each other

And love once more

Ourselves

And everybody in the world

We come :
Walkin

In

The summer rain



The streets are cryin

We still remember your face

;;;;

And the gentle way

You greeted us

And touched us


And took away our pain


••

Sweet holy waters

Upon our skin


Sweet lovely girl

I feel you always

><

The summer rain


><


Soft summer rain

::::


Is it

Tears in my eyes

Or

Just sweet memory!?

We were in it together

That's what you let us see

We felt the simple presence

Of
Every human being


And in their pure goodness


You showed us how to believe


/:/


Walking

In the summer rain

)(

The whole wide world

Gathering in strength

Because we've come to know you

And to
Know ourselves
Again

Oh what a summer it is


Walking in the rain

Immaculate perception

::

She of the purest beauty

Holy incarnation

The mother and child

The mountain
And the warriors

The pride and simplicity

Of all men


••


Goodbye to madness

Loneliness and suffering

We are the gifts

We bring

To each other

):::(

: : |||| : :

The creation

Breath by breath

The creation

)( ::: )(

::::|||||:::;

We are the creators

We are the creation

We have no one

Else but ourselves

To join with to fulfill our obligation

To nurture and protect

The whole world
