I am the king of the anthill.
Run with me and you are free.
Leave and your mind will perish.
Compete and I shall give thanks.
For you are a wise man too.


Strange it may seem.
That I am yours,
And you are mine.
A gift under the Christmas tree.


There is a place in the vast unknown.
Where all are well and free.
When will we be?
Today?
Tomorrow?
Yesterday?
Soon is my guess.
Soon we will be well and free.


I search for wisdom,
I search for love,
While swallowing down the devil’s juice.
It helps to understand.


Flowers grow beneath my feet.
It is pretty neat.
The walls bend when I tell them too.
When I touch them my hand goes through.
This must be pretty new.
But it’s not.
It’s an ancient secret.


We are all connected,
From the Earth.
You are my sister and my wife.
You are my worst enemy tonight.
When you’re gone.
Here I’ll be.
Waiting
Wondering
When we shall meet
Again.


A ghost hides in my soul.
Making me do what I don’t want to.
Bit I can’t bull**** you.
It is untrue.
I control me.
Right here.
Right now.
And for he who judges me.
No excuses.
Just me.


He approaches the cliff
Arms spread like an eagle
He gets a running start
And leaps off
For three seconds he is free
He climbs back up and goes again


Birds chirp and Flowers sing.
And the trees dance with the wind.
The dirt walks down the path,
And finds some grass to grasp.
Mosquitoes sleep in their beds,
While spiders count stars.
1…
2…
3…
They are infinite.


Close your eyes,
Look deep inside.
I’m going to take you on a ride.
We’re gonna fly through forests and glide through lakes.
We’re gonna do whatever it takes.
On our ride we will be
So unbelievably free.
This you will see.
Just trust in me,
And take my hand
For a journey to a faraway land.
We’ll do whatever it takes.
This you’ll see.


We will dance through the forests of time,
And shout our battle cries to the wind.
When we are sober we will watch the sun rise in the east,
And welcome us to the beginning of a new day.


Dive into the floor and come out the other end.
You are my closest friend.
Swim in the lake,
This isn’t fake.
It is real,
And your mind will not heal.
You will experience visions and living dreams.
A taste of heaven, or so it seems.
That this world is so sweet.


My cigar burns away,
Just like time in a way.
No more smiles,
No more rent.
We have seen it all being spent.
Now we wait and watch for death to approach us.
Here he comes.
I am ready.
Are you?


She is the one that makes me wonder
Why am I here?
Shall I be with her?
Shall she be with me?
Her hair is blonde like the morning sun
And her curves are greater than an artist’s finest painting.
She has the soul of a child and the mind of a Wiseman.
She has been through much
As have I.
We have many tales to share.
Good and bad
Old and new
What does she like to do?
I am not a rich man
Nor am I poor.
But together we can soar.
We could have many adventures in this wondrous place our creator has given us
And unlock the secrets of life.
Together.


Marley says, “Everything’s gonna be all right.”
He is dead.
Walked towards the light.
So is it true what was said?
Bad days,
Strange dreams.
Where are my golden bays?
Or never-ending streams?
Every plan goes straight to hell.
Never works out at all.


Where is she right now?
I’d like to sit near and touch her hair.
Just tell her how much I love her,
And never fear anything at all.
Because I will always be there,
Wherever and whenever she needs.


Swallow the poison sweet one,
And join me in the night.
I’ll take you on a trip you’ve never been.


Mysterious smoke fills the cool, September air.
Alcohol and drugs are within one’s grasp.
A fantastic fiesta without the Mexicans.
Tonight is a tool.
A tool to reach deep down inside yourself and pull out your true feelings.
Have a beer my friend and let paranoia escape your mind.
Come inside and mingle,
But leave your cigar to the night.
Having fun yet?
Here, try this water bong.
There you go.
**** it if her boyfriend’s there,
Talk to her.
Oh, it’s not her boyfriend after all,
Good news for you my friend.
It’s getting late?
You have to go?
Ok, see you next time.
And the night is behind you.
Tomorrow is even better.


Half a shot on a moonlit night,
Driving home I saw you.
While I was passing through.
Your hair and beautiful body walking through space.
Or maybe it wasn’t you.
It could have been my imagination.
I don’t trust my eyes much these days.


Drugs all around me,
Liquor within my reach.
Trouble I always see,
And myself I try to teach.
I’ve been doing fine,
Haven’t touched a thing.


“Don’t drink the water.”
“Why not?”
“The sand people have infected it.”


Let me hold you in my arms as we walk through this world together.
Let me teach you what I know,
And all the wisdom I will show.
Just stay with me tonight,
And we’ll have an adventure.
We can walk through the trees,
And kiss the gentle breeze.
When the moonlight shows,
We will howl like animals until the sun comes up.
And when it does,
We will sleep and prepare for another day.


Death will not separate us, but bring us closer and our spirits will merge as one.


Walk barefoot tonight my love,
And let the Earth kiss your precious feet.
Stop and admire the stars as they admire you.
When you return, sleep naked.
Sleep naked and give the cool night air a chance to touch you bare back.
Oh how I wish I were the Earth, stars, and air.
Oh how I wish I were with you.


Gentle the winds
And gentle the breeze
Over the everlasting seas
Sky of black
And clouds of white
Are the wondrous beauties of tonight
We touch the Earth
And dress the sky
On the gentle flowers is where we lie.
In all this beauty
And under this tree
Is the miracle of god I see


I am in perfect euphoria
Looking down and all around
Smiling at everything I see
Just to stand and look below
Is a joy to me
A cigarette in my mouth
And a beer in my hand
Scaling over the wondrous land
I think and ponder why I am here
But I just am
No explanation needed



I

Watch the world go round as you slowly go insane.
Turn into an animal in this very real game.
Not sure what is happening,
Not sure where you are.
This is your strangest trip by far.
The sea of faces look into your eyes,
Pouring their feelings inside your skull.
You scream at the mirror and punch out the glass.
Blood is crying from your hand.


Your blood is thick and red.
You put your head down and cover your eyes,
And sway to stop the noise.
It is all over now.
It is all gone.
You walk forever and never come back.

II

I have returned to sanity after a long journey.
Less drugs and more sleep is the plan I hope to keep.
Never again will I let it get out of control.
Never again will I let it take over.
It is euphoric feeling normal.
It is forever heaven.
In a place like hell.


Flags waving in the breeze,
Ships traveling overseas.
Jets streak through the air.
Biological attacks to fear.
The end seems near,
But it is just the beginning.


Good Lord give me a chance to pray,
Good Lord I have something to say.
Good Lord I don’t want to die.
Good Lord please don’t make me cry.
Please Lord let me take back what was said.
Please Lord let me clear my head.
When I am finished fixing all this grief,
Then Lord you can take me away like a leaf on a tree.


A new year and a new beginning.
It’s over, although it never began.
I have fallen for someone else.
A light-hearted girl with lots of vivacity.
She is sweet and beautiful.
Her hair is soft and long.
Will she join me on a trip?
We’ll see.
She is beautiful and young.
She has a nice body and firm, small breasts.
I think I love her.
But it’s hard to tell after so much heartache.
Only time will tell.


Where is the enemy?
Is he hiding or standing strong?
Will we get him or fall?
Only time will tell.
Where is my enemy?
He is a coward.
Won’t come out and fight.
I have some tricks of my own to get my revenge.


Journey We Follow

I

Journey we follow
Into the night
Journey of excess and delight
Cling to life and all its mysteries
Have you prepared for the sacred wine?
Let us walk amongst the stars
Fly through the universe and touch the sky
The Gods are calling us to walk with them
The blue moon is a hungry beast
No horrors will catch us tonight
Just memories of the light
Follow me unto the rose
Watch the petals dance and glow
Scared are we into the show?
Never more will we fear the rush
Of insanity of our thoughts

II

Fire one up it is the end
Of innocence and our lives
It is too late to say goodbye
Trouble now and then we die
The sky has fallen
And the end is near
Just let us have no more fears
We are chosen to liberate those
Who know of nothing except their peers
The Gods have chosen us
Not them
To show the truthfulness of ourselves
No more woes
No more saints
Let us not debate
We are the chosen

III

Drunken fish in the sea
You’re not you and I’m not me
Let us not worry about stocks and bonds
Instead let us rejoice and fear no one
The world is a marble of green and blue
We are not here
It is true
Death not ends our fantasies
Instead we sail many seas
Truth be known and truth be told
I am God and so are you
The sky is a vast wasteland
Waiting for us to siege control
No more pain, no more suffering
The world is our cloaks
And we its knights
Let’s dance through the trees
God has granted us our freedom
Sail to the end of the Earth
Fear no one, nothing, evermore
We are the leaders
We are the birds
Let us soar for ever and ever more


Walking down a long, long road,
Out in the bitter cold.
Just to deliver you a message,
A truce of some kind.
I turned back because it was too harsh,
But I came again.
In the end the message was delivered,
And I hope it brings happiness.


A fire ant is marching
Marching across the cold concrete walkway
He is free
No worries
Just collecting his food
For his daily feast
If he makes it through the wind
Then he will be joyful


Is this the life?
The life I have chosen?
Well, so be it
Mistakes cannot be undone
We choose to live with them
And no other way
So soon is it that I have chosen
Chosen the path of my destiny
But may I alter it?
I wish not to be false
Or go without knowing
Of what it could have been
Will I get the chance
To undo what was done?
Soon I’ll see
And soon I’ll be
A step closer to ecstasy
Let’s not speak falsely
Let’s not be crude
We can all make harsh choices too
Do not be careless
Do not be unthoughtful
Let’s not do damage
But restore our spirits
The sky is wide open
And let your mind be too
Do not dismiss the call of your foe
Your life lingers on a cliff
Unless you forgive
So join us
And we’ll make it all right


I want to tell you a secret
A secret of grave consequences
If I leak it then I might explode
The secret is…
I love you
And you
And also you
There it is
Forever off my chest
Now let me rest
And think things over
I may now be a little bolder
Will you fly with me?


Ssssssss,
The crisp paper burns down
Grey smoke fills the air
I look at the sky
The trees are red
And the leaves are dying
The miracle of nature is before my eyes
The world is a beauty
Life is so relaxing
If everyone was in peace
Then it would be harmonic


Everlasting Joy

I

Melancholy
But very peaceful
The world is sweet
And so are you
Walk with me for a while
To nowhere in particular
When we get there we will know
And my love for you I will show
Let us talk and exchange jokes
And share thoughts of life and death
Let us kiss and see our breath

II

Now we can return to our lives known
Now that my love was shown
Remember all that was said
And by your dreams be lead
To everlasting joy


I was approached by a wise man.
An American monk
He gave me a book to enlightenment
Was this a sign?
Is it the key that I need?
In life to succeed?
I will see
Very soon


Jump in
Have a martini
Are you very friendly?
Take off your coat
Give me your feet
And your toes,
I will eat
Sweet smell
Incredible fragrance
Let me show you my new bed
It squeaks
Now isn’t this fun?
Roll over,
I’m getting in
Let’s find something to do
How about you?
Okay
Are you sure?
Sounds great
That was nice
Here,
Have some cab fare.


Levitation in my head
Strange creatures in my bed
A world of fear engulfs my soul
Will I make it?
I don’t know
Heavy breathing and much sweat
Am I dying?
My chest is wet
Was it a dream?
Or reality?
I don’t want to know


Feelings of hunger
And of wonder
Will I make it in life?
Or just be another victim of the system?
1 eyed man
2 armed caterpillar
3 legged dog
Forever these things I see
Let me give you the key
Of the journey’s way
Charge it up
Give it a go
And soon you will know
Of what I say
And what I know


The old man is near
He knows you
He gazes through your eyes
Wishing for you to die
Wait, He's gone
I shot him with my gun.


Fallen angels dance on the Earth
Living sinfully on Crystal Meth
We won't join them
They're all insane
Feeling lots of pain
We will have good times right here
Dogs are barking,
And making love
Candles burning brightly now
The ship has sailed
And the plane has crashed
Dance on the roses to your left
Watch the day flow away
That is all I have to say


An icicle stabs him in the chest
He died of the cold
A lightning bolt goes through her head
She died of the heat
A rose cuts his throat
He died of the peace
Now ascend and look down
Over the flowery ground
Your heart is open
And so is the sky
So say good-bye
For it is the end


Cars racing by
Greed in the young man's eye
Cash is his trophy
And the man is his loss
Light to light
Just a short track
Speed is his drug
And he needs his fix
The light is green
And they're off
Wind roaring like lions
Lines are flying
Brakes crunch
Glass flies
The young man slowly dies
A church bus is his ripper
A little ironic
I should say
For this man
Didn’t go to church last Sunday


The suburban jungle,
A dangerous place to live.
Stop signs, street lights,
Speed tickets are our last rites.
Here we live
And here we die
Never a chance to say goodbye.
Exploring the city is the only adventure we’ll ever know.
No more wilderness to show.
Asphalt is our sea,
And power lines are our sky.
We can just sit back and sigh.
The world is running out of grass,
And here was our only chance.
But it is gone
And so are we.
We our buried on our knees,
Because there is no room for our feet.


I cannot fly,
But I may die.
With the daisies is where I’ll lie,
When the time comes to say goodbye.


Fields and streams,
Stitches and seams.
The world is never cold,
And here we’ll grow old.
Together.


Buses and cars
Trains and planes
Ships and boats
Watch the buoys float
It is gone
Mother Earth and all her piercings
With a tattoo on her chest
Yet she will never rest

Crazy eyes
Strange hair
I see you sitting there
What you want?
I don’t know
Do you have something to show?
No
Go away
I don’t have nothing else to say
Fine
Be that way.

Pain follows me through the town
Winter winds are cruel and relentless
Does the Spring sun show mercy?
Soon the pain will be gone
Soon Earth will give me back my breath.

Follow the purple feather
To wherever
It knows why
And so will you
Just do as it says
And you shall be okay
It will not harm you
If you do the same
When you get there just look for me
And all of the light you will see
Down by the ocean in the pale moon light.

Watch the fairies wander through the grassy fields
Watch them dance in the night
Follow them to the light
See what they do in there
When you do they’ll know you’re near
They show no fear
And nor shall you
For they only bring peace
And you should too

A Suicide

I would love to say goodbye,
But now it is time for me to die.
No more will I see your beautiful face
And no more will I taste your sweet taste.
I will love you always
And forever be yours
Remember me
For I will always remember you
And one day we will be together for all of eternity
When night falls,
Look towards the moon and call my name
Because I will hear
And I will answer your call.

Just stay with me
And all the memories will be
Right here before our eyes
Give us a chance
And we may dance
In the flowery fields
And sunny days
Of our youth
Jump for joy
When the word comes
That all is well
And we are saved
