A sliver of Sunshine remains

Green and Gold

Green and Gold almost eerily they unfold who has remembered and who has forgotten or to whom was it sold the pillared ring the pillaged place Green and Gold no longer told none who knew none who dared none who showed few who cared Our love is Green and Gold Sign in to see full entry.

Never too far out of Mind

Words Sounds Rhythms You haunt me like a faraway shadow even though you are a figment of my imagination You are still alive in me Sign in to see full entry.

for "Children of the Wind" only

In herinnering aan "Frits Deelman en die skepe van Mars" en "Swart ster oor die Karoo" Soos vreemdes in 'n vreemde wêreld dwaal ons rond vind ons oneindige plesier in die stof en op die grond Om ons maal die aardbewoners rond al lekkende aan hierdie en daardie ou wond swaarmoedig het ons tot nou gedwaal en toe eendag onthou van ons feesmaal nou kyk ons met nuwe mense oë vanuit die toekoms na dae lank vervloë Ons het die ritme ingehaal en nou is ons nie meer verdwaal Moet asb nie "funny"...

Athena

Along the Inner Edge

On that day none will see The truth is that heavens own will be slaughtered even by His own people Three days should suffice hereafter they will run to hide in caves and caverns running from His wrath deliver me from this Dreadful is Thy countenance as before, to those yellow eyed dragons This is what will unfold here and now ending six labored days years are days and days are years Willingly the two will go into the eye of the storm life will not lie to them living in His temple Rush, O Lord it...

Life as Love

Thru all the Love I've shared and all the times I've cared One transcends them all Like an Ancient tree above them tall Nowhere to be found In all the world it does abound No need to seek No need to speak Just be found It'll come around Sign in to see full entry.

Shaman Song

Voices echo in an empty hall as fear keeps the streets alive memories of the elders rise but the young buds wilt and die as favorites become gods and their offspring fade down the centuries melodies remind of paths untold and sinister they paint with blood the bearers of good news trampled underfoot as the crowd storm their idols the words get lost but planted in mud it will unfold as was foretold Sign in to see full entry.

Blissfully Unaware

How they dance the night away the fairies and the gnomes blissfully unaware of the mind that sustains them their odor is appreciated but they do not smell their flavor is tasted but they do not taste they are watched but do not see they are felt but do not feel they are heard but do not hear they are thought but do not think they are known but do not know Sign in to see full entry.

Bright Moments

I've had my bright moments when my eyes and mind coordinate perception but mostly I remain oblivious to the monitoring carried on seamlessly by the organs of perception It is the doors of perception that have intrigued me more often than the furniture in the room of sanity where many people hide I fling myself into the void and it carries me on wings of song to unchartable realms were my heart is freed from sorrow Sign in to see full entry.
