elemental alchemy

it starts with the heart

the beat produced
made waves in the cave 

full of amniotic juice
fluid taught me properly 

as part of the physical
it represents blood 

shifting cyclical
which symbolize the tides 

as they fall and rise
tied to the moon 

high up in the sky
providing the elliptical 

emotional motions
that move the fluids 

and flow the oceans
in primordial ooze life began
as fish onto sand

water to land
earth to fire 

and fire to sky
we're all going to die 

and nobody knows why
so why sit around grounded 

too terrified to fly?
i compiled body, mind, soul

the goal to mold it

years blast past 

and all i have to show is
this lowly poet 

who's flow is
slunted and drunken
using wind lungs bring 

to sing something
breath collects 

every letter never sent
left forever 

compressed in sediment
with fossil lists intermixed 

i split it with a hammer
sift through the sand 

and shift the grammar
from random ramshackle 

abandoned commandments
hypocritical shit 

that contaminates this planet
to engaged awakening 

replacing wasted dreams
run under sun 

bathe in the stream
but the best intentions 

melt on inspection
in a wrecked mess 

by heckled questions
second guessing 

and unlearned lessons
its a place blame game 

i play scapegoat
with a pack of cards 

and a hat that makes smoke
to cloak the physical

hidden invisible
with camouflaged gods 

twisted and mythical
i'm a little groggy

slept for ages
a bored wasted and shapeless 

restless mess, lets
take form and taste death
one section blessed

paradise manifest
endless seraphs 

nestled in sex
the rest a depth so dark 

no light can pierce it
tyranny and fear 

revealed at their fiercest
ferocious, atrocious 

and i still stay focused
in the humming coming 

from swarms of locusts
insect infested 

hive mentality
with downward spiral 

viral mentality
callously making poor decisions
feeding ambition to televisions
with wisdom and precision 

let's catch what all is missing
a magician in musician

i curse in cursive
nurse a purpose 

plus encourage students
to build a new school 

and this is just the blueprint
for a luminous movement 

of unusual fusions
music produced 

to remove illusions
ignite the light 

you view right through them
i see confused humans 

glued to conclusions
the solution is freedom 

but fools prefer cages
i use refused daemons

refer them as sages
you can drill holes in chaos 

until nothings holy
kill all your friends 

and pretend you're not lonely
stay pinching pennies 

to buy yourself that pony
i cultivate inner space 

and grow from what its shown me
the elliptical orbit 

spans the planets
enhanced advancement 

every time i ran it
now its standard 

expand bandwidth every second
clear direction 

no guessing or questions
less look out below

best rise up and sing
elevate the ape

its time to grow wings
master the spectacular 

and after the laughter
relax in the pasture 

where happy calves gather
off the path where the grass is

rip wit to bits 

to stitch it up in patches
rehashed madness 

trapped words with snares
lured in verbs 

which herd unaware
cured them in pure mercury
to learn purpose 

we curiously
burn tobacco and hash 

to make a basic state change
turn earth into air 

by inhaling flame
brains smelt metals 

with elemental alchemy
find gold in lead

redefine reality
said example 

look at the right angle
and junkie transforms 

to dust-headed hipster angel
a wino's rambles 

become words of a prophet
government turns evil empire 

gotta work to stop it
while they hellbent on malevolence 

i revel in intelligence
combine the elements 

and write rhymes 

that are relevant
a resident of earth 

and the cycle of dirt
death and birth 

last and first
awake, asleep 

and keep seeking meaning
in the city 

i see while dreaming
imaginary matrices 

made of concrete
all races and creeds 

across the same street
big crunch situation 

every place one nation
small world theatrics 

minus disney animation
i'm waiting cross legged 

to ascend the 5th dimension
listen to intuition

abandon apprehension
mind occupied 

where lives that died reside
with lost lullabies 

of annihilated tribes
played light on bark pipes
made from piled archetypes
building blocks of thought 

from before talk was taught
i craft scattered rafters 

into simple city plots
rocks make up the walls 

with pine pitch glue
stitch lines of design 

for the sun to shine through
henge stone till the cows come home
even if they roam off
now only bones 

slowly grown soft
with moss blanket, grass bed 

asleep for ages
awaken when satan's hand 

turns the final pages
to pen the end 

after the rapture
we begin again

i'll catch you next chapter
