ECCO


Earth Coincidence Control is keepin' things coordinated
Synchronicity connecting dots will make your soul illuminated
Correlations making noise inside your magic brain's third ear
A lesser man, no understanding, might just be inclined to fear


Lilly spoke to dolphins just to see what's on their mind
And they answered back articulate, we are a friendly kind
Only man would take free peace and then go turn it into war
And the dolphins have to wonder, man what are you fighting for?


Isolation and salt water and pure darkness by and by
And the scientist without drugs could get very very high
Take what Buddhists did in centuries, compress it in an hour
And you've got raw consciousness projecting petals of a flower


A metaphysic scientist, not too many such around
Tapping into energy and the consciousness ground
Earth Coincidence Control, would you do a favor please?
Do give us another Lilly, to help cure our grave disease

The Muse



Never knowing just quite how
To proceed, how does it go now?
Scattered thoughts throughout the hour
Rhythmically, sound out the Tao


Sounds all right but getting better
Working it out to the letter   
Lo! the Gods be shouting out!
I do hope they don't seek to fetter


Think I'm getting somewhere yet
Though don't know where I want to get
Am I slow or gaining speed?
Seems it has begun to set


Here -- it's coming into view
The wily beast he is now slew
It only takes a little effort
To know just what you want to do


Started with nothing, got here strong
Though it isn't very long
It has a rhyme it has a meter
Someone go and sound the gong!

The West


The West is the best, but falling behind
No plans for the future, no one seems to mind

Nowhere quite as open, nowhere so refined
Yet we're slipping down into a quagmire unkind

The peak has been reached, and we're on the down-turn
Getting rougher, and tougher, for our young to earn

Riches we've got, but the debt's getting bigger
Cold War's at an end, but we still touch the trigger

It's tragic indeed while the fabric decays
Social, that is, so integrity frays

The future is where all the action will be
Our dear Western notions prepare drearily

Mammalian politics is what it comes down to
God help us to gain something we'll earn renown through

The Eye


What mysterious source
For destiny's wave
Can the seer then save
With varying force?

The all-seeing eye
Keeping a dark secret
Knows nothing of regret
For Magicians on high

Finally there's just one
Truth to be found here
It is thought not to be clear
Radiant as the sun

The essence of which
Is sheer possibility
Indeed, here mutability
Disconnects from time's stitch

Subtlety boundless
Disbelief so profuse
No need to confuse
Read all of this soundless

Genetic Latitude


Mother Nature grants us genetical latitude
Indeed, 'tis the reason we're given to attitude

Behavior is not a billiard ball
But it may as well be, for most if not all

Each function is like unto an organic
A part, like a heart, essentially mechanic

You choose along a preordained path
Paradoxical that, but impossible math

"Foreordinational freedom of will!"
To sift among fallacy takes specialized skill

Ordinary souls the subject outclasses
Explosions were wrought! as I sift through the ashes

The determined determinist smiles wryly
As the wise old mystic makes fun of him dryly

All true moderns know the old ways are dying
And are already dead, and the liars stop lying

Keep a Lid on It


Big or little conqueror
It doesn't really matter
Let the chaos stay at bay
Tranquility will shatter

Esoteric, dark -- arcane
These things must be protected
Sacred, powerful, sublime
A mystery projected

Mustn't get too eager yet
To make intrepid difference
Better just to hold, stay set
Ignore excited preference

Keep a lid on things, indeed
The sage must surely say
We are always in a time of need
But useless here today

Content


Content meant contentment
Having little, wanting less
Truly to the betterment
Of self and other must confess

No conundrum in desire
Simple pleasures are the best
No complication is required
Save the simplicity of rest

Setbacks, problems -- crises, even
Take them all in stride
They sure as hell ain't up and leavin'
"Why not me?" he replied

Respect, but take less seriously
The vicissitudes of living
You'll find you live less furiously
And instead of wanting there's having

Butterfly Order


See there a face
Did it form accidentally?
In theory, evidently
Truth without a trace

Such remarkable beauty
Selected for or maybe
The caterpillar baby
Lusts for future duty

Flourishing in nature
Predators at bay
She surely has a way
Of mitigating danger

Colors, vibrant efflorescent
How could they have been put there
By forces random, pushing air
With wings pumping incessant

The implicate suffusing
Each point at every other
There never was another
Idea quite so confusing

Honesty requires us
To relinquish old causality
To acknowledge true reality
Make intelligence a plus

Time Asymmetric


The dogma goes thus
Effect after cause
It would be a fuss
To break such firm laws

But time is symmetric
Or so they have told us
Mathematics eclectic
Would therefore not scold us

Were we to presume
That effect could precede
Cause -- can we assume
That Nature would concede?

The future could reach
Back into the past
Would this be a breach
Of a universe vast?

Perhaps multiversal
Principles inhere thusly
A stark role-reversal
What about causes must be?

If indeed the whole concept
Is rough and provisional
Then perhaps such a precept
Is at most conditional

Scorched Blossom


In the optimal the flower bursts
And opens up to the scene
You see, in life, there are many firsts
And the blossom, it opens mean

The solar burst is fiery too
To animate all life it gave
But in its zeal it burns right on through
And the blossom descends to its grave

What sustains destroys
Light brings birth and death
Two sides of a coin, it's as if God toys
With bliss and fear in the same breath

"'Twas ever thus" the philosopher cries
With nectar comes always some venom
Each one in his cradle virtually dies
The cost of living in the plenum

Robotic Love


Who loves not love?
The poet inquires
It goes to the loftiest heights!
What bad ever comes
A full life requires
Someone having it there in their sights!

Though others are not
So rosy about it
I've heard it called 'romantic fog'
Or else just at best
Temporary, so quit
All this chatter 'bout kissing a frog

And then it goes farther
Harsh, blunt, is it truth?
An amalgam of sex and sentimentality
I'm not so sure
It isn't forsooth
But I've never been one for banality

When one has seen love
Go as haywire as I
Have seen it go far in the past
One wonders a bit
And then thinks by an by
It's just a mechanism, but vast

But I have to suppose
That in my good conscience
I couldn't dismiss such sublime
Thoughts and emotions
There isn't a science
Of love, as there isn't of rime

Add Age


We've never lived for a day
The world spins on, indifferent
Funny, time slips away
And we don't know what life meant

The only rule at play
Seems to be change, impermanence
We surely don't have a say
Despite all our dear brilliance

One man sees birth
Love, beauty, possibility
Another man sees death
Oblivious tranquility

Yet another treads the road
That winds on the razor's edge
Somehow trudging with the load
Along that lonesome ledge

We have the old saying
'Time stops for no one'
We're but children playing
With nowhere to run

Perhaps best to be keeping
Death in our awareness
Some feel it is sleeping
Not awake, in fairness

Karmic Flux


Destiny's a funny thing
Act it out in stages
Justice it will surely bring
If one believes the sages

Justice meaning evenness
Delicately balanced scale
No one can escape himself
Nor of pardons avail

Cause, effect, result, connect
It all is quite connected
Incarnations left and right
But none just yet perfected

Is judgment a compatible notion?
With karmic reparations
Are wrongs righted, in fairness done
Punishing degradations?

In any case, the scale obeys
Laws natural and cosmic
One can't escape them, for they convey
A truth so astronomic
