This Mental Eclipse

In life

I am the spider 

Kung Fu

I am the snake

In dreams 

I am the owl

In love

I am with you

Foreordained by the powerful insight of a gibbering madman who, cast upon the seas of the wide world in tumultuous splendor, proceeds to find a balance on such strange surfaces as have never before been mastered. The will to dream and the dare to hope function equally as a lever to move the heavens and the earths in a cosmic blend of poetic nonsense, this mental eclipse, having said so returns to eternal slumber beneath the rolling waves. 

Moby-Dick

But not only is the sea such a foe to man who is an alien to it, but it is also a fiend to its own off-spring; worse than the persian host who murdered his own guests; sparing not the creatures which itself hath spawned. Like a savage tigress that tossing in the jungle overlays her own cubs, so the sea dashes even the mightiest whales against the rocks, and leaves them there side by side with the split wrecks of ships. No mercy, no power but its own controls it. Panting and snorting like a mad battle steed that has lost its rider, the masterless ocean overruns the globe.

-Herman Melville, "Moby-Dick" 1851

From the branch that is brittle

And lands without sound

So hard to keep the darkness from seeping through. And when the flood comes to drown us there's nothing we can do. - Opeth "eternal rains will come"

There is no safety

In the death of a dreamer

Only more sorrow

A willow tree stands

At the cemetery gates

Watching flowers die

This is what I just drew while listening to this album, featuring such colorful characters as: upside down Asian bandit; sad bowing sea otter; lighthouse man; frog master; and the questionable nun.

Dream Scheme 14

The whirlwind doesn't come from fish it comes from the silence behind a slowly walking mind. Mesmerizing, rising like a tide of mercury, perfoming psychic open third eye surgery.

I'm tired. Tired from living a thousand lives. I can smell the dust from the streets of ancient Babylon. My feet throb and ache from miles and miles of wandering the deserts, forests, and jungles of the continents. My eyes burn from a thousand thousand sunrises and sunsets, moonbeams and rainbows, comets and quasars, atoms creating molecules creating cells creating a creature whose essence stares through these eyes and operates this bizarre and miraculous careworn vessel that walks on this little rock orbiting this little star in the middle of nowhere.

Haiku 4

Fire burns and then dies

Water flows until it stops

Energy is now
