20,000 Freaks under the Sea – Live

Standard

On March 3rd there will be an event at WorkPlay called 20,000 Freaks under the Sea.  There will be many bands and various artists and many forms of music, art, and dance.  I wrote a little something and put my twist on it.  I will perform it there along with The Little/Raine Band.  You may recognize them from our stuff at the Expansion Project.  This is our fist time out with it.  I think we will actually practice it since we will do it at a show.  There is no telling what it will eventually become. 🙂  The idea of Freak for me did not call to mind the weird or macabre or those who are outcast.  Rather my mind went more toward the exceptional and singular.

Change the World – Live

Standard

If one would change the world it must begin in that one.

Projecting the darkness onto others creates more darkness.

The sorcerers even now are hard at work stirring the pot of division and projection.

The corporate Eagle flaps both left and right wings, fanning the demonic flames, lusting for the rite and sacrifice of war once more.

Blood, death and chaos is the dance it desires and the lambs follow their shepherds to the slaughter.

Red hates blue, blue hates red.

With glee the sheep bleat out the programming as they travel.

The blood lust arouses and excites and motivates.

The poor sheep do not know that the blood they call for is their own.

If one would change the world it must begin in that one.

Overcome the evil inside and the world will already be made new.

Blessed are the poor in Spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Blessed are they who mourn, for they shall be comforted.

Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.

Blessed are they who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.

Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy.

Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God.

Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the children of God.

Blessed are they who are persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Expansion Project – Curious Place – & Stuff

Standard

Curious Place

Change is the constant

Moving from one to the next requires a flow

Change is the constant

But past remains present till with open hands It’s finally let go

Curious, this place

Stepping out unprotected

Vulnerable to hidden dangers

Success not guaranteed

Each wary step may tip the balance . . . or not

Deciding to decide, the most difficult task

To decide is to cut away other options

Options seduce with an illusion of security

But remain only potential until one is chosen and the others forsaken

Refrain

So remember what is forgotten

Renew your sense of Soul

In the flux feels fragmented

But your true nature is to be whole

Reluctance, resistance, confusion may rise

Whips of what might be encircle and they drift on the winds that blow

Be still while it settles, allow the storm to pass

Put down roots when the dark times come

Know your nature is to grow

Constant is the Change

Each step much like the last

Constant is the change

But I have been here before and this present too will become my past
