Jessica,

Kindly Kiss The Dawn To Wake
KINDLY KISS THE DAWN TO WAKE
Kindly kiss the dawn to wake
Upon an open mind of late
Given to translate your words
From foam that normal thought discards
Will the story please unfold
I feel, awake, upon a sea
Of consequence
Actions taken stir the devil
That I love
It's the only way to see, sometimes
In the darkness
And this sea is deep and rich in me -
A theatre seen through seaweed
Holds a light to better scenes and fantasies
And bubbles of a forlorn race
Run rings to rise, as seen anew
For we can inform each other
A life to lead of nurturance
Please wake this dream of circus rings
We know it brings
Our yearning asks, our asking yearns
The wind for rainYou are my People
YOU ARE MY PEOPLE (after Compton Dumdon Hill Nov 1995)
Thank you to my friends
That I met here in the wood
I've tasted your wine
And I think that it's good
My feet are so weary
My mind is so sore
I'm thinking that my Mother
Will soon settle her score
I've travelled on land
And I've travelled in mind
Folks can be distrusting
Folks can be kind
But you don't live in houses
Don't put up no walls
You harmonise a loving song
And live by Nature's Laws
No words can describe
The visions that you see
The land, the stone, the river run
The branches of a tree
You are my people
A home that is to roam
Let us join to ride the time
A long low wholesome road
Deep in my bones
I can feel her unease
Though my mind is sore
It knows the reason
Oh mankind have we gone
Too far to go back
So friends it's survival
To find that wholesome track
This is what we are my friends
Beneath the starry sky
This is what we is my loves
And never wonder why
What goes around (early version)
WHAT GOES AROUND (early version)
Standing at the edge of time
Hanging out my washing line
Spiral wizard make your spell
At bottom of a wishing well
Time is not one big straight line
It's much harder to define
In the end, it's not at all
F'rever spinning spiral ball
Spinning circle
Seasons spin
There is no end
Does not begin
Tell me why
It is we die
Spiral Maker
Cosmic Eye
Cities rise
Cities fall
Crumble concrete
Fall down wall
Tell me true
A thousand dreams
Washed up
In a turning screen
Oracle of None
A thousand days
Choose us One
In many ways
What spreads apart
Shall gather to
Freedom found
And love to you
We have never parted
We have never parted
Cursed with a clear view of reality
To have words of another language
Another planet
And to see a spade for a spade
And a Self for a Self
Who are you?
I know you
I remember you through lifetimes veil
Can you remember me?
Do you comprehend my language?
I will try new words
Impossible feats I will perform without ease
For you to remember me
Travelling in the company of Elves
TRAVELLING IN THE COMPANY OF ELVES
I had a dream good people
I had a dream so clear
Of the end of everything we had held dear
Laid waste by the ravages of senseless graceless creed
Forty million bloodsuckers a ravenous craving greed
It could be politicians, it could be you or me
That built a machine that has been a soul-grieving misery
And through the ages one can see the action of the mind
That fenced the land and forced the man to make a world less kind
And in my dream a voice it spoke, it was the voice of All
It cried out to the everyone it made a wonderous call
It called into the hearts of every man, woman and child
And woke the star of who we are that has been so long defiled
And that star it touched the shining and it shone brightly too
And Elves of all descriptions appeared I surely tell you true
It sailed on through the torrents a great and timely Ark
And through the transformations embarked it was our craft
To beyond the Western oceans where Kronos, wide awake
Was splashing in the water and in a loud voice spake
Then the sea swelled up and then it broke over the land
Whereopon the shining boat appeared at our command
Here comes the one who slumbers, here comes the one who wakes
It is returning Arthur Futurus, the King reborn from crystal caves
Awakening at the hour, at our hour of peril
To sort a messed up World, polluted and well meddled
History turns now on it's head and then I woke myself
I'm making plans for travelling in the company of Elves
