Ahoy Mate!

Ahoy Mate!

The flickering Aspens imitate the Sun shimmering on the stream
Air and Earth beget Motion
Fire and Water beget Motion
Heaven and Earth, the Lofty and the Lowly
Fire and Ice
The Alchemical Marriage

I long for the enticing Body of your Words  Ye Myth Dancer
Anchor my Wandering Mind with your Reflections
Why are we all separated into our little worlds of duty and custom?
Break away from the herd racing for the cliff

Desire is our master of many faces. Desire for the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
The Good lightens the load. The Bad weighs us down. The Ugly hides the Truth.
But Even the Good harbours the illusion of the path
The Fool has no destination
Only an empty cup can be filled

Cups full of useless knowledge
At least ye let me pretend I am meaningful
A game of flattery perhaps   But we travel and dance and travel and dance
Laughter and the Joy of  seeing Within - Adorn Us

Come my Playmate - Appear before Me ye rascal
Or else I will Fetch you Me-self
I am weary of the Noisy Silence of the human trains

Wake me from this Slumber my Kali
And the Universe will Reappear
The Moon is Rising  The Sun is Falling   The Earth is Turning
A sober smile attends your memory
