The energy is overwhelming, my soul is being called. The moon follows me, patiently guiding me with a radiant golden eye, while the sun keeps a vigil eye on my future, surrendering me to dreams. Closer and closer, brighter and brighter they are, pulling me to the other side, the ripples of the water, the jagged peaks of the mountains, an inviting challenge. I can’t speak or see, without being there, anywhere. No plans, but to get there, to the unknown i crave. Accepting my inability to stay anywhere for long as a gift, not a curse. An unknown calling to accept my fear as excitement, as a motivator, my anger as a breath held in for too long, frustratingly ready to jump, to laugh with uncontrollable freedom. To be found in the sublime of Mother Earth’s third eye, between the present and the future.
Day 60
16 days from now
Untamed
Dreams of Bali
Become reality
One step
60 days ago
Became a lifetime of progress
Of freedom
Of happiness
Of living
Beyond the walls
Of my frightened mind,
Of my shortsighted family,
Of negative people.
Fuck the restraints
Of living by the book
Of making others happy,
Of selling yourself short.
Life goes on
With or without
YOU,
Life is not a given,
To live, you must participate
You must accept yourself
To change
The past, the generations
Who have struggled to get YOU here,
To/the present
The future
Of your tribe.
Day 50
The midnight rain,
The tears,
The hopes and dreams
I held for others
run down the gravel hill
Of Makiki street
Scraping and tumbling
Down the drain
To the blue-grey waves
Below the lamp post lights
The waves
lapping up
the endless generations
Of sorrow, confusion, anger
The cocktail
that drains
down
Makiki street
In my dreams
I float right around
Right down the drain
With it,
With them
Day 16
Write,
Right,
Wrong
To doubt
our human condition; our propensity to discover ourselves through others; through the compassion of conversation, through the empathy of vocabulary. Writing the wrongs to give birth to the insight of connectivity; to encourage the idea that humanity and society are made separate by choice, by the means of his/her/our neglect. We use one another to survive, we use one another to thrive. A simple enough exchange, yet we abuse one another to fill the void of connectedness
Or so we think, blindly
Unaware of the energy of life.
Who are you
To think that you are separated
From the ties of the Earth?
Floating
A crescent reflection
On a
Shallow sea pool,
A moon beam dream
That echoes through a past life,
A mariner’s teasing rhyme
Silent sky, glittering with promise
Eyes closed to the hum of the wind
Ears inhumed in the chest of Mother Earth herself,
The cacophony of each heartbeat,
muted beneath the weight of the waves,
A baptism in the life-blood of her will
In
And
Out
In
And
out
The night glow glistening
On floating breasts
The ocean breathes you
In
And
Out
In
And
Out
The water’s salty embrace
Filling your bellybutton pool,
Emptying between your thighs
Not a moment’s rest
As you ride the tide
In
And
Out
In
And
Out
Your body salaciously surrendered,
Resting on Mother’s tongue
Fingertips gently bobbing,
Grazing the pounded sand below.
From rock to sand to dust,
We all go
In
And
Out
In
And
Out
The Journey Begins
Thanks for joining me!
Good company in a journey makes the way seem shorter. — Izaak Walton
