Out here with a new moon

I hear the notes drifting to me

So elegant they are as they travel thru the air

Caressing my ears

Warming the soul

These notes comes to me

With every breath you breathe

Delightful music I’ve never heard before

Just craving for each and every more

To learn the rhythm of your heart

Having my own beat gently with it

Flowing through the air

Tickling every sensation

Your gentle breeze comes

Never wanting your energy to leave

Like stars in the sky, my eyes twinkle with a

new brightness

As You, my new moon comes into my life

In and out

Up and down

There are many ways around

The World we go

Yet our mind is wandering to and fro

Thinking continuously, always burning

Yearning to feed that mysterious

Off of the emptiness above

With the love of the knowledge

Taken in through the day

Trickling away little by little

Yet some seems to stay

Within that cavernous middle

Sifting through that confusing space

Drifting away without a trace

This was the first written inscription into my adult journal on July 25th, 2001....

Today is first day of the rest of my life. Here I am in a gown in the hospital in the wake before different portions of my brain are removed to hopefully cease my seizures. Jen, Jeannie, Laura, Tim, Mom and Dad are all here with me; loving, caring, and wondering around in this room and many more people are out there praying and keeping me in their minds today. I, myself, am not scared because too many other people, especially Jen, are worried for me. So soon the blades will come, like now....

Use your disability's

To their capabilities

Taking advantage

Of your disadvantages

Bringing a positive reaction

From that negative action

Gaining the wisdom

From your mistake

Who am I

What do I know

When am I arriving

Where do I go

These questions come

In multiple ways

Some are answered within seconds

Others will take days

The thing is

These answers change

As life progresses

And the new reality becomes deranged

So this mind

Must go with the flow

Of these crazy times

But be on the right side of this show

Go out to find the right answers

Always question the wrong ones

Seek the enlightened dancers

Enhancing the insightful fun

Frustration reactors

Demonstrating demolishing factors

Within this brain of mine

Feels like God has left me behind sometimes

On the wheel of Life

In a world of strife

Yet all of this has caused me

To become the man that I am

To this very day

In a way

Its stronger in soul and spirit

Yet weaker in mind with memory and recollection

Although a re-connection in synapses

Are coming from inside somehow as I glide

Through this trial of life right now

Becoming a stronger person

There was no rehearsing

Just all of a sudden it came to me

Struck me in the face

And now I must always replace

The negatives for the positives

I must give and not take

Be real and not fake

Face reality from the reel of Life's spiel

To appeal to all

But most of all....Me

For I matter the most right now

So take this post and let it boast

Your life to another degree

Let yourself see who you are being

Feel the true reality of what

You truly want to be feeling

God dealt you these cards that He

Knew could be dealing with

So never give in

Rise thy chin

Open your eyes

Breathing a deep breath

For Death is still a long ways to come

Now take this experience

And relay it to All, not only one

See the vivid visions

Surprisingly yet to be seen

Read the interesting stories

Of future's realizing dreams

Become the deep one

Who you know you are

Surpass those everlasting limits

Which aren't very ever far

Know the surpassing you

Who can be brightly seen

And is much more than most

Know you've ever been

The boundaries are none

Endings being only fun

Speaking deeply to reach some

To bring all those to that One

This now and that here

Bring love to confront fear

Face the time in this descriptive now

Know that there is always somehow

Cast thy mind upon that piece of paper

To become a moment in time

That Americans hopefully never Have to relate to once again

We feel something happening

Coming soon upon our future

Is it tomorrow?

The tension that it brings

Our eyes are opening wide

To what has really been going on for some time

The higher corruption all around

Us seeking answers yet to be found

It's this moment in our history

We know what we have to do

Taking real control of those "parties"

No matter if Red or Blue

People over the power

Written deep in our Constitution

Yet this towering material illusion

Needs to be ceased in a revolution

Go where, no other

person has gone before

Exploring deep into my own mind's

Deep dark but dazzling depth

Where only you can reach

In many different ways

Release the soul

upon the lights energy

To see well far beyond

Ever seen and felt before

Opening a door into

Many dimension of the mind

Never knowing

we could even find this

Or knew it exists

Open your eyes within dimensions

When gazing upon the energy's sun

Turning darkness into light's One
