The struggle is and of itself.
Quite pointless dont you see.
Because both sides need to be here.
Both sides are absolutely necessary.

Your love or lack thereof.
Your hate the same.
Even the intelligence of Kasparov.
Needed new fools for a game.

The despair is intrinsic.
But so is hope.
Sometimes for balance.
Enforced rationale must elope.

Seeing the evil is important.
But not to be Blinded is key.
There's two sides to this story.
It's for you to make peace easier to see.

The future is not promised.
It never has been.
All you have is now.
And your choice remains to be seen.

Flying blind inside
The perpetual storm
Forlorn by the scorn,
A spirit, stillborn
Ripped up and torn
Washed up upon the shoal
Dead eyes, as black as coal
A wounded soul...
Lifeless and stagnant
A million listless fragments
Reeking in the fragrance
Of an utter sorrow
Seeding our existence,
Life, aflutter for tomorrow
Out of the gutter,
The Cosmic Mother shudders
And weeps and silence...

The atomic violence
And the undulating tears
Manifest forever
In the final frontier...
"I am become death, the destroyer of worlds"
The abysmal, cynical, metaphysical stare
I am here, I am there
I am the flame that burns eternal
In a dualistic, ritualistic,
Infinitely simplistic tug-of-war
Between love and fear
As the dove sings in its despair
I am the reaper, the groundskeeper
In the cosmic graveyard...

You are the Phoenix, the fetus,
The zenith of the evolved genius
ensconced in a double-helix
breathing credence without impedance...
Rising from the ashes as time passes
With flashes of imagination and insight
You ignite the universe and deliver
us from the night...

Together as one,
We are the moon, We are the sun
We are the stars
And the fuel that makes them run...
Neither created, nor destroyed
We are the dichotomy that fills the void...
You are the culture,
I am the vulture
And I must resist your seduction
If we are to exist
And not persist in our mutual-destruction

The mortal beings
Adorn us with praise
Oblivious of the fact
That we're one in the same...
Though we are the eternal, immortal macrocosm,
They are the temporal, ephemeral microcosm
Sewn in the fabric of space and time,
Our cosmic veins flowing to infinite minds...
We are entwined in our symbiosis
Never to be divided by osmosis
We are forever one,
One forever,
Never to depart
In our ubiquitous, iniquitous endeavor

:mushroom2:

Tunnel Through Time


One suggests it might be true
That the old particle zoo
Could here offer up a clue
About how mind knows what to do:

Matter boring through space
Engaged in a tight race
To send wave as a carrier
Of particle through the barrier

An impassible wall
No matter how tall
Will allow one or two
To pass right on through

Now then, space is explained
But time wouldn't deign
To permit such a flight
Well now, isn't that right?

Such is not understood
To be real, or it would
Cause a riotous stir
And the rules all to blur

But what if perhaps
The rules were to lapse
To invite such potentials
And draw up new essentials

I submit then to you
Time-tunneling, too
The driver of awareness
Well it could be, in fairness

Digging through futures
Forming conscious sutures
Entangling dimension
The mind's main extension

Such routes possibly can
Allow the thinking of man
To be in part understood
By his own thought, he could

Channel Death

Electronic ghosts
haul morale out of windows,
willed-to inescapable Dotcoms
place-holder magnate economies for

Corn-rows of stressed video game devs that
dangle as we garble whiskey and tango
with
Charlies with bell-bottoms
(back in style)which shoehorn morbity rates on stairs
for the unknowing Eskimos.

in the stomach
nanotech sends to brain
  vapors from inside the Cloud;

and little bits of me drop in now.

Below The Loudspeaker

"big loud USA can't get it's shit together- spread more virus!"

someone says "F*** Trump" in a tempered whisper, with plosive heat breathing down soldier's ear....

Poet:
i'll keep my own and roll with the tides,
leave the dust & fires behind,
fight for freedom where-e'er my homestead,
and i fight for the rights that're mine to hold.
though i'm not a revolutionary— that's not my job,
i'm only just a compatriot—
(take thinking slow...do not want to entice a mob)
i'm holding fast on the tides of war.
through hell i'll battle thick and thin;
how then 'tis justice is needed-
when the malcontents and revilers shake
the cities, and the street-shops quake.

Anyone like Madlib?

My man with the rasta
Has the best green pasta
Tree trunk bud
But the good shit will cost ya
Bake a batch of cookies
Make you feel like a rookie
Make you eat a lot
Maybe go get some nookie

Freedom of potentials.

Propagating from a moment whilst instantaneously being now.
Impenetrable barriers tunnelled, but how.
Perhaps the real block is the limit of the mind.
Giving its self only problems with answers to find.

There was no time.
Trying to pin it down a poor design.

There was no wall either.
Much like ourselves just part of the ether.

Having to fit "unfortunate" shapes in to a "well designed" system. 
Destined for failure just to appease them.
It MUST do something maybe faster is it.
No no no that's a step to far don't be complicit.

If its on both sides at the same time then it always was.
I think our interactions are the same.
Within this very sentence we tunnel this little game.

Its already there.
Just now while you thought.
The moment we share.
Should be the question sought.

Our counter culture consists of getting high and piling up into sketchy clubs and listening to shitty EDM music.
No community, just people aiming at social media Likes.
No alternative music - everything is shiny and glossy.
Maybe I just need to get out of the house more.
It feels like we lack meaning. What's our purpose here.
I don't want to be corporately controlled.
I want us to stand for something.
Something beyond post-modernism.
Let's break the shackles... somehow?
There's got to be a way.
To stop the culture apocalypse.
I'm sick of this. It's utterly boring.
Yeah... time to get out of the house.

Primordial Blues


Well, I'm an old blues man
And I think that you understand
I've been singing the blues ever since the world began
  --Poet Emeritus


When atoms formed, it is said
There was one very bothered
"I have the blues!" he was heard to cry
And so did those he fathered

When life arrived, one single said
"I can see where this is going"
He was like some bluesmen of old
They're all so very knowing!

When multicellularity arrived
There was a proto-organism
Under his breath, he muttered and cursed
"Already we're forming a schism!"

By and by his offspring were
A brontosaurus and a fern
The fern cried out: "Now stop that there!
My leaves you've got to earn!"

So the fern evolved some toxins, see?
And when next he saw the dinosaur
Said, "I told you nothing in life is free"
And the fellow commenced to roar

A tiger following water buffalo
Was cresting the top of a rise
He worked, and he lurked, but all he could do
Was look so deep into their eyes

He cried, "What would it take
For a fellow like me, to eat for once in his life?"
Just like that, the cave man leapt
And sunk it in deep with his knife

The moral of the story here
Is that the blues is eternal
Getting eaten while alive
Is really rather infernal

Toothaches with no novocaine
And freezing unto death
You see, it's rough and only ends
When you've taken your last breath

Quantumly entangled
Is our love
Sewn with unseen threads
Fused together in time
Magnetically entwined
Star-born reincarnation
Cosmic regurgitation
We were quark stew
Before organic soup
A single-celled organism
Mutated by cosmic rays
Waiting for the day
We crawled out of the sea
We toiled and plundered
Like a random-number generator
We evolved as the world revolved
Yet here we are in the present
interwoven by our senescence

A WILLOW

Through the Fog a Thought Meanders Down a Mountain

A Pale Yellow Peeks Through the Mist
    Which Blankets the Wind Down to the Abyss

Easing Softly as Blue Becomes Grey
    And the Earth is a Damp Cradle

Follow the Thought and Careen Down the Stone
    Where Carved are the Words of Every Soul

There in Our Aging Mother's Arms
    The Fleeting Thought
          Whispers Softly and Descends
On the Land of the Willow

And Stardust Floats On Through

Face in the endless void
in the infinities
The mask of which is Pride
and Mortality
I turned down the Vapourwave station
to it's minimum volume (but of course,
I could still hear the beats.
Lowering it
actually seemed to make
hearing the adverts possible.)

And stardust floats on through.

Begetted then destroyed
in earth affinities
The contraction thermal
of entropy done
divers expansion of time and space,
to it's maximum consequence (but of course,
you hear the sound of OM.
Raising it
moved the aspect that made
mind play the mime of distractions.)

And stardust floats on through.

TANGLED

One End Held at Each Fingertip
    Yet No One Told Them

Say Goodbye and I'll Ease Down
    Thought I Was Alone

The Earth Shook Beneath Me
    And Called Her Along


    Chilly Winter Breeze


I'm Alright Alone
    But I'd Rather Be Home

An orgasm of enlightenment
Forged by the elements
In a vibrant environment,
Intricate and resonant...
It echoes in the valley
Of the philosophical fungi...
My consciousness of thirst,
Absorbing a fractal universe
That's occulted to the uninitiated,
The spiritually sedated...
Soberly unseen
Surreal as a dream,
The senses dance
In a romantic trance
And color the air in between...
Insightful and wise,
Delightful and benign
We all harmonize
In the valley of the sacred fungi

Even the musing is amusing.
Questions and answers deliberately confusing.
Even thinking, about how not to.
Patiently waiting in an ever lengthening queue.

I know it's a trap.
I quickly forget it.
Finding the start.
The same spot with the same slap.

Learning to unlearn.
Closer by stopping that which I yearn.
Then confundity of my little town.
Building something always knocks it down.

The less I know the better.
But this I seem to know.
Always false never clever.
My paradox an infernal fetter.

Sell your body, baby
I'll sell my soul
We'll do our deeds
And meet back home
To fix each other
Stare at the floor
Nod, as we smother
And drift away
Our ephemeral bliss
May i have a kiss?
Earlier I forgot
But you are just my mistress
Second only to these drugs
But we will drown together
In our toxic,
Co-dependent love :mushroom2:
