the sea is rising
and God is angry
the sky is polluted
and God is choking us
oceans are flooding
and God is coming
commuting life and committing glory
this planet is invoking danger
God is pointing to catastrophe
species are rapidly descending
God is destroying a lot of everything
earth's evolution is warping
and God is crying mercury
this revolutionary planet
requires a metamorphic happening
quick silver measuring us anatomically
God is worshiping an atomic universe
this entire world is swiftly changing
divinity bows down to mnenomic Mother Earth
God is thinking I told you so
those fattest cultures
obesely thinking only of themselves
such an excruciatingly greedy place
God is going to thin everyone down
reframe this current fat cat social structure
God reminds us to be refreshingly compassionate
as desperation wears its scarred and violent face
God is asking us to be empathetic
this world is full of so many hateful people
God wants undivided love and true care
overtly rich men and women including King Midas
being covertly obtrusive and obsessive
existing as that heartless greedy kind
God has imprisoned them in their soulless lair
while the human race flounders deaf and blind
God is saying we had better look again
stare hard into every magic mirror
reimagine who is speaking and who is truly there
this world is full of rape and war and fear
yet God contends we are all equal and should be kind
Mother Earth insists we need to share
the world we most easily see is black and white
and God demands we must have clear vision
envision spectral colour both day and night
this voracious world is insatiably thirsty for oil and gas
irrationally hunting for crowns of gold and mounds of diamonds
God is pushing us to be happy
revoke all behaviour that is crass
God happily feeds us apples and oranges
relational nutrition plus a few smoked almonds
Mother Earth's precious creatures are going extinct
God is watching while we press and pluck ourselves
stressed people are often fools and fail to clearly think
so rampant panic creates environments of empty shelves
deserts are growing while the seas are dying
God is saying the human race could disappear
balance has been contravened as we bumble trying
devouring ignorance we walk around sighing
this planet is coming to terms with mega-death
God is reminding us everything is possible
including constructive bounty and uninterrupted crystal meth
the heart and soul of humankind has been corrupted
God twists wishing we would meditate upon salvation
crave redemption on our spiritual journey
our inherited souls marked with God's almighty invitation
the meritorious world is burning and drowning
we're burdened with this untold blunder
we're owning this terminal climate change
and God is sending us more thunder and lightning
this world is razed asunder by crazed immoral war
God contends we would be better off eating manna
intending nothing less and nothing more
earth is finding it hard to reconcile the human race
God is watching us turn ourselves inside out
here we are wearing such a pathetic covid face
our unsympathetic world is tearing us to pieces
extended God still celebrates
that revolutionary inventive alpha bang
not intending a universal blackhole tomb
while the distended Holy Ghost prays divinity increases
a wondrous universal womb is cosmically incubating
thus supreme God is aptly ovulating

in my dream
I touched the finger of God
light gave me
spiritual direction
in another life
forgiving my solitude
God took me by the hand
lead me to a hidden sacred spring
encouraged me to explore and deeply drink
in my unrestricted dream
a holy light encompassed my soul
sharing universal enlightenment
giving me eyes to see
radiance teaching true beginnings
grace rose with me
wisdom woke inside me
eternity explained divine endings
in my prophetic dream
everything is God and saviour
the sun gives favour to the moon and stars
evolving I found myself orbiting Godhead
I fell further into another vast deep stead
love's past lifetime was solved as I slept
when I ascended from my graveside bed
resplendently I existed again
creation resolved all wonderment
breathed from God's eternal depth
I looked around knowing then
what divinity truly meant
all those ghosts and demons
that God lets shake creation
all those serpents God has sent
exhibiting profundity with all their venom
molecules altering every nation
in my incarnate dream
respectfully I begin to understand
God's revolutionary re-creation
in my evolutionary dream
I'm asking God to take my hand
samadhi's enlightened station

one fleeting moment
that last time
I saw your face
stared into your questioning eyes
studied your slanting smile
disappearing perhaps forever
I watched your tears
flood down your face
falling to the ground
a catchment for our fears
but the trying sun
burned us in this place
as our hearts cried
while yearning gravity
dragged the tidal moon
down to the bridled earth
in this nocturnal race
emotions kept us turning
in this love lost space
that last time
I touched your hand
felt you surrender
while you were in my arms
destiny remained in command
as you stared into my thirsting eyes
that first fleeting moment
stealing my breath away
making my heart skip a beat
beginnings escaped me
I couldn't find the words
suddenly you were gone
ending that tender moment
rending me incomplete
I stood there silent
encompassed by my wrongs
contemplating forever
reeling in my wretched mind
feeling every second
time that slowly passed
surrounded by sad love songs
truly etching my pain with thine
as love turned into a faded memory
still I searched for some forgiving sign
I knew that love just could not last
reality corroborated you were in the past
still I hoped I'd wake one day
realize it had all been some night terror
open my eyes to see you lying there beside me
happily find you and your love
still complacent and contented there

all that colourful jazz
thumb snapping
bohemian poetry fads
beat generation
trance into beatniks
hip generation
dance into hipsters
scream into beatles
romance into hippies
keeping the beat
all that generational heat
one after another
all that cool jazz
rooted but continuing to roll
rocking and all that razzamatazz
brother all that rock and roll
sweltering into helter skelter
one eye opening tangerine dream
drifting into some other hurt
Bo Jangles into other tangles
squares into triangles
circled then skunked by punks
plunking into a carnival ranking
still more circus hanky panky
menage a trois plus a high wire act
one carnal beat after another
facets of jungle being
life's individual facts
one intrepid key into another
blissful harmony and raucous rhythm
tall bridges over the river high
one schism followed by another
hey little sister and big brother
keep that universal beat
a chorus with all those lyrical tunes
cultural attunement
societal atonement
every bitching song we sing
harlequin colours ring a ding ding
measure after measure the spell isn't broken
burning down the house
breaking down the walls
incorporating every musical token
don't let your reverb tears make you sad
import the world from sticks and stones
extract every viral dance
strum simple chords that make you glad
pound wildly on drums and bones
tap tap tap on horns and bells
wah wah followed by strings and spells
what would the world be without that beat
how truly cool and sublimely neat
don't stop moving your feet
raze both heaven and hell
sing ballads and crazy songs
could the unfazed universe tell
trade us for something amazing and swell
be that extraordinarily right or subliminal and wrong
exile us to in there Mercury or out there Pluto
somewhere the human beat has never gone

I'm trying
to something
but something
keeps trying me
I'm some thing
trying a thing
things try me
what something brings
bringing trying sees
seas of trying times
times have tried me
trial and error
error finds me
trials aired
something fair
fares for air
terror doesn't care
still something there
there is some thing
still something dares
dare to care
care to dare
something fare
I've cut off all my hair
but still I find myself
right there somewhere
standing at the werewolf's lair

this sea of humanity
this vibration we find so profound
creating echoes of flesh and insanity
making this messed up world go around
depends on what we can save
revere the sky and sacred ground
wretches speaking their profanity
depending on how we all behave
will it be a wail of despair and pain
or some other desperate sound
