“We live on a placid island of fear
in the midst of black seas of infinity
and it was not meant that we should
voyage far”
"Intrepid Blue-Green New Gold Dream"
We edge closer and closer
to answers that are there
right in front of us
we walk blindfolded
up Jacob’s stairs
Yet mute
we remain
thinking,
that dreaded word
"thinking"
perhaps it is safer
to avoid
LIFE
and all
that we cannot
yet imagine
the mysterious
wonder
that
IT
is
Safe Harbours
departing -
Open Oceans,
Intrepid Blue-Green
Open Sees
Intrepid Warriors
push the door open a little
then through ignorance
and terror
we refrain
to stand
like children
shaking
behind
the door
afraid of what was
we hold onto
the only way we know
what was before
without voice, we are afraid
like a child
of what is and
what could be
the other side of nightmare
shines the call to lost battles
a brilliant epiphany
a well-earned
VICTORY
Mute
some remain
lacking the
courage of
Love
To bury the past
broken record analog
phonograph
33.333
long playing song
Get on with it
A Life
buzzing
To Be
A Life
unknown
adventure
please, let there be
Love
Regards,
Mystery

“The most merciful thing in the world, I think,
is the inability of the human mind
to correlate all its contents.
We live on a placid island of ignorance
in the midst of black seas of infinity,
and it was not meant that we should voyage far.
The sciences, each straining in its own direction,
have hitherto harmed us little; but some day
the piecing together of dissociated knowledge
will open up such terrifying vistas of reality,
and of our frightful position therein,
that we shall either go mad from the revelation
or flee from the light
into the peace and safety
of a new dark age.”
H.P. Lovecraft
“All deep earnest thinking,
is but the intrepid effort of the Soul
to keep the open independence of her Sea,
while the wildest winds of Heaven and Earth
conspire to cast her on the treacherous, slavish shore.”
“She is your friend
Until the ocean breaks
And when you dream
Dream in the dream with me
She is your friend
Until the world goes hot
And the city breaks
And the beat goes crashing
Until the ocean breaks
New gold dream “
"I am the electric storm come to defibrillate your heart"
