Be the Tree


When the winds

blow

From where we know not

where

Do not be afraid to give way

***

When the rain and

snow

fall and the sun singes your

hair

You don't have to say what you want to say

(FUCK!)

***

When cosmic influence

tells you to fall

to take out a car

or a

powerline

Do not delay


But understand

that if something should take you

and your roots

out of the ground and into the world

Its importance is insurmountable

incalcuable

entirely dramatical

Essential to this cosmic play

***

Be the Tree

and

Let your design guide your Way

    never will they stop
    never will they thrash

    always will they grasp...

    attainment ever hovering
    just beyond the buds

    keep climbing...
    keep stretching...

    ...giving to the circle
    ...receiving from the circle

    being the circle

  2. too many times
    has a gust of wind come my way
    that didn't make me wonder
    didn't make me want to say

    was there intention in that winds breath?
    a certain deft
    without a threat

    circles and circles you say
    and that is how i be
    you give carbon to me
    and i give oxygen so you can see

    keep stretching
    keep climbing

    the original tree of knowledge
    is somewhere on the horizon

  3. being the circle
    being the circle
    my god man your made of circles!
    circles of three dimensions
    infinite space
    but watchout because someone will tell you to live the ratrace
    where bones scatter and tears fall
    hateful words spring from a well where there is no knowledge at all

    turn your senses inward
    perhaps
    to the minds eye

    if there are three dimensions
    lets give three a try

    a previous wave of emotion
    but not from the past

    too many questions
    locks to unlatch
