Is Ra Ill Question Mark
Salome just loved gingerbread
But Herod misheard what she said
Who wants a dead head
To bounce in their bed?
So she dashed to the John instead

Ra the Sun God
Ra the Sun God
Ra Ta came to Egypt with old Thoth,
10, 000 years before the Jesus cross,
The great flood had been and gone,
Thoth, Mercury and Hermes were one.

Built the Great pyramid, they did,
Hermes the architect, stones were bid.
Perfect square of line were they,
Levitation, rocks, did...

 Creations of yesterday
the ignorant ones
who follow illusions
Abu Nuwas saw the truth
he lived in pleasures
at the caliphs palace
both flirtatious and aloof
he mocked the righteous
in a glass of fermented grapes
the screams  only came later 
the little ones ignored
a darkness of tears

Premium Member Amen Ra
The sunrise was like a fertilized egg
golden of yolk and flecked with blood,
it crowed to the mist filled morn.
It ran over the hillside frying the vegetation.
The brilliant white albumen flowed
into the vague gray day.

The egg itself blushed at the flattery
extending pseudo pods of white 
like...

Sun RA Rockets to Mars/Tony Adamo/2000

Sun Ra  rockets to Mars/ landing with his Arkestra by way of his supersonic  jazzhip ship/
The red dust be a  flyin’ below his dancen’ feet/
The heliocentric  world of Sun Ra  comes to the red planet

Ankh Amon - Ra
Ankh Amon - Ra

Morning to the gateway of the sun
Set between lantern sea skies
The magic of those Egyptian eyes
Their incantation has begun
Turning worlds of one
Washes through my mind
Azure beaches in the cloud

Focus zenith hidden in the line
Where night has drawn her time

By the sanctum of...

  It’s Happy Mother’s Day
Mom stays in bed all day
  while we all swing and sway

We serve her brunch in bed
  not much to munch, it’s Bad!
Then we break all the dishes
  and feed the cat goldfishes

We go outside...

Se-Pa-Ra-Ted Se-Co-Nds
The hordes of defection await
Obscurity indulges their silence
Abruptly, I am lost within my own recollection
Feverishly trying other hearts

My brain seizes its choler
It bathes in the solace of grief
Disgruntled, I await ambition
Deciphering each notion, towards alienation

The separated seconds loathe me
I fall between my somber thoughts
Deserted, my...

Behind the Pyramid With Ra and Nut
Let’s just call each other  Ra and Nut  ok?  
      No need to be formal here behind the pyramid.

Mighty Ra
Mighty Ra.
Through the sky
Thy benign presence journeys
Unto us thy glory to dole
Thy aureole, a hollowed
Light radiates.
And into our burden
Darkened psyches
It permeates to illuminate
And unto our entirety
Healing to bring.
To thee,in worship
Our knees bend
For none else,but thou
Mighty Ra
Could these deeds wrought.


In glory art thou robed
And in majesty...

Eye of Ra
Bastet
crouches in
dimly lit corridors
of the Egyptian temple
Her marble black skin
shimmering pools
incandescent green orbs
lit with altar fire
Feline Goddess
of the Nile
carries a kitten
by the scruff
gently she lowers
the newborn bundle
of fluffy joy
on our doorstep
Baby Rama
He who brings
enduring bliss
Galaxies
and all the Cosmos
reflected in his
sweet eyes...

Mr. Nutty, 
you're m'buddy,
you never were a fuddy duddy. 
There's a pattern, 
you're from Saturn, 
they shoulda made you the Green Lantern. 
Zen Kabbalah, 
Mr. Allah, 
did you ever play in Walla Walla? 
No one's nicer, 
jezus cry sir!, 
boogie woogie on a synthesizer!...

SADDLED SIINCERITY

I have a lot of friends who talk with temerity
Some softer souls speak with sincerity
There is no need for me to see their face
And I can tell which one it is whatever the case

Is it the one that tells me she’ll do all that...
