"Our great human adventure is the evolution of consciousness. We are in this life to enlarge the soul, liberate the spirit, and light up the brain." - Tom Robbins

"Have you ever...

...jumped on a bandwagon?
It's fun.
As long as you don't fall off."

All the truly bad places -
doctor's offices, banks, tax agencies -
have lollipops waiting for you
on the way out
as if to say,
"Sorry,
we hope this helps."

Songs Without Music 4

I saw the idols
coated in moss

As I made my way
through the opal forest

Was once weak-boned
all frail and oblique

Now made out of stone
like these figures of Kings.

I sang the praise
of my idle ways

As I trudged along
the belligerent stage

The audience slouched
all bent like weak trees

While I attempt to be righted and stoic
a true example of royalty.

The Dim-Lit Path
led to lurid moments.

The Shaded Path
led to illumination.

Carnal Knowledge Of The Godhead

Descend
Don't Shake
Your Queen's Crown Actually A Halo Of Snakes

Ascend
Don't Break
Temptress Your Sin Actually My Mistake

Drag Me Down:
Orange Fire
Black Sand

Tongues Abound On Sweat Soiled Skin

Eternity Starts Where Your Trial Begins
And Ends When There's Resistance

DESCEND TO ASCEND

Oh Venus,
I Sailed To You
In This Phallus Castle
ONLY To Break You
ONLY To Forget Myself
ONLY To Stake You
And Forge A New Self
