I must connect and disconnect
I am the attached and the unattached
I am the this but also the that
I am the swan and I am the rat
I am the roots and I am the soil
I am the simmer and I am the boil
I am the clay and I am the child
I am the heat and I am the mild
I am the all and I am the one
I am the moon and I am the sun
I must commit and I will let go
I turn inwards I walk into the glow
words admire me frequencies describe me
mirrors reflect all and leads to infinite truths
snapshots of deflected light pictures taken in different booths
the many and the none
the humming and the sung
the tweets and the howls
the flutters and the prowls
coming into the nothing returning to the everything
the right time and the timeless
the teacher and the curious
the reflection and the projection
the process and concrete
everything is obsolete
yet everything is absolute
everything is complete
battling with old selves yet here lies nothing to compete
within the world and shielded from it
kissed and killed
standing on two feet then I shall kneel
curled and unfurled
loudly silent
calmly defiant
soft hardware
hard but is handled with care
violated yet crated
difficult to reach
at the top of this tree sits a peach
bitten all over and still not ripe
the observant and the extravagant type
the monthly pain penetrates
the heavy rain delegates
the purr and the roar
the sunken soars
the still speed
the starving does not feed
deep breaths little baby
a stillborn, the death was meant to be
the living emotions go crazy
drifting back into eternity
will be rocked back to sleep by the milky way
maybe they’ll come back another day
I am nothing and I am everything
the number 5 and the number 11
heard through the abyss
before the coin was thrown
you have been granted your wish
the well has not yet been found
but the well will always surround
as above so bellow
curtain drawn
and now starts the show
on and on forever
no beginning or end
the start of sand
at the bottom of oceans exists land
thriving and barely surviving
gasping, panting, exhaling
steady, slowly, inhaling
invisible and seen by all
catastrophic when on the dance floor
swims in shadows, basks in light
she will love you to death you will try to fight
owned by none needed by all
flys so high then let’s go to fall
ashes to ashes, dust to dust
drugs and purity
otherworldly maturity
where have I gone
stuck where I am
life projected through perspective
everything is real and nothing can be proved
a scratched record, the CD that soothes
cycles and squares
rough around the edges, very well prepared
the hearts stiff, it over pours with vigour
such profound flashes drunk off her liquor
wanted and needed before known
your journey to her are the answers shown
needed to be understood but never followed
not a sound whispered and everything echos
never finished had never been started
the first one and also the departed
I am everything and I am nothing.
