Gas Station Sushi

Ow! gas station sushi.
 I want my gas station sushi.
 I don't care about the cramps & the whooshi.
 Just give me my gas station sushi.

 I gotta have gas station sushi.
 There's nothing else that runs quite through me.
 So just give me my gas station sushi.
 Ow! Gas station sushi, oowww! gas station sushi.

 You know, this sushi, is really dinosaur sushi.
 I got a T.Rex tearing up my bowels.
 They can hear me coming by my growls.
 Looking for more gas station sushi.

 Ow! gas station sushi, oowww! gas station sushi.
 I want my gas station sushi.
 I don't care about the cramps & the whooshi.
 Just give me my gas station sushi.

 Did you know they call me the 'Sushi Whisperer'?
 I keep telling them to "make it crisper!"
 That how I like my gas station sushi.
 Ooooh gas station sushi!

 Ow! gas station sushi.
 I gotta have gas station sushi.
 But now I've go to run run...run!
 Ooowww gas station sushi!!

Something Wonderful Is Happening

A Great Awakening is upon us. Have you felt it ?

You are not having an anxiety attack.

You are not crazy.

Has this feeling led you here?

Are you having trouble sleeping ?

Perhaps you have felt surges of energy, or a sort of tingling all over your body ?

Does it keep you awake all night?

Light-headed or a kind of dizziness ?

A sense that 'someone' is trying to reach you ?

Can you 'almost' hear something ?

Is there 'something' just on the edge of your consciousness ?

All of this, is normal.

There are many who are feeling this.

Are you thinking, that there has to be more to life, more than what you have always been led to believe ?

Do you just feel... that there is more... to everything ?

There is... very much more.

There are wonderful times ahead, if we can only get through our present troubles.

We are all connected. We are all one.

You are not alone, you never have been.

We are all one upon the Great Wheel of Life.

What affects one, affects us all.

When one of us suffers , we all suffer.

When one is down, we are all down.

We are not separate from each other except in our own minds.

It is our ego that separates us.

It will be our hearts, that will reunite us.

Fear... makes us weak, and separates us from each other.

It is our love that will bring us together.

Love... is the strongest force in the Universe. You only have to open your heart to know this for yourself.

It is through our capacity to love, that makes us strong.

It is love... that will reunite us upon the Great Circle of Life.

Open your heart and let your love shine all around you. A wonderful thing will happen...

Carpe Diem Carpe Noctem

I am my fathers son
I am my mothers daughter
Forged in Dragons Flame
Birthed in Neptunes Water

I hear the song of the Warrior
I dance to the warriors tune
I am known as the Healer
I am the guardian at high noon

How my eyes shine in the night!
In morning I soar with the sun
I belong to the First Born
My heart and the Goddess are one

The Wizard is my teacher
The Dragon is my friend
An Angel was my mentor
I will protect thee to the end

Damselfly wings take me in flight
Soaring over my Homeland
I run with the Wolves at night
When peril comes I will make my stand.

If darkness falls I will shine my light
I will covet thee and protect thee
With all my heart
With all my might

I am my fathers daughter I am my mothers son
I will bring the Healing Waters
With sword in hand
I battle till the day is won

The Faery Explorer

I am the Faery Explorer
no lives less
always the more
your path I've chosen
learning is my way
this I do many lives through
for my Family Fae

In your step
behind your eyes
upon your breath
my Faery soul lies
we sing, we laugh, we make merry
with you I hurt and cry
I am, the Explorer Faery 

Eat drink and be Faery
For tomorrow we Fly!

Becoming Light

Open your Heart ..

Forgiveness .. is a State of Being .. a letting go of everything ..

When you understand .. you will forgive everyone .. for everything.

Including yourself ..

Surrender and Accept ..

You will unburden yourself of everything ..

You will become Light ..

It is a State of Being ..

Open your Heart ..

It is but a State of Being ..

Pulling On a Mexican Straw

I'm pulling on a Mexican straw
 Work is done, so I got outta Dodge
 Now I'm happy to just lie here all day
 Pulling on a Mexican straw

 Life here is so slow
 Don't know if I'll ever go
 I am finally away from it all
 Pulling on a Mexican straw

 My glass sweats in the heat
 It's a race to finish the drink
 Lot's of time to lie here I think
 Pulling on Mexican straws

 The sun is baking bread
 Lost all urge to get ahead
 Doing nothing is such a ball
 Pulling on a Mexican straw

 Plugged in my '59 Plain Top
 Playing like I'll never stop
 No phone for making calls
 I just keep pulling on Mexican straws

 I'm pulling on a Mexican straw
 There's no time to plug in the clock
 I'm gonna stay here playing my Paul
 And pull on a Mexican straw

Old Age and Doing It Again

I am a happy old Crone. 

Old Age, the bane and angst of Youth, is upon me. 

Again.

It is the 'again' part that makes me happy. Why should I fear it?

I know what is to come. 

I remember. And the memory comforts me.

I now suffer creaky old bones. 

Wrinkled skin. 

New aches and pains greet me when I awake most mornings.

I have been here before. Many times. 

I remember.

My hair is long gone grey. Not for the first time.

It all feels so... famiiar 

I have lived so many times. I remember quite a few of them.

In this life, I've reached the level of awareness that allows me to remember.

Opening.

Old age suits me greatly. 

It is like discovering that old long forgotten worn out pair of blue jeans in the back of your closet. 

And they still fit. I wear them all day. The memories they bring back! 

Happy.

I am now in this life, closer to going Home. 

Again. 

But there is something new, different this time.

I have learned just about all my lessons. 

Each new life presents a new Life Lesson. 

Like the grades in school.

Elementary "Play nice, clean your room, don't hit your sister" 

High School 'rejection, ridicule, unfairness'. 

College 'racism, sickness, poverty'.

As one gets older the Life Lessons become harder don't they? 

But you can take comfort knowing that you are an 'older soul'. 

Also, life is not just about 'lessons'.

We are given out lives out of Love by the Divine.

Life is meant to be a Celebration. Life is also a stairway.

Through all the many different lives, we find our way back.

Home.

And back, to the Divine.

So what's different this time?

Graduation! 

I know that when I get Home, it will now be my choice whether to come back here, or stay Home. 

I can now choose to stay Home and help guide others who have come back to learn a new 'Life Lesson'.

Or

I can choose to come back here and do this all over.

Again.

But that decision can wait...

After the Party!

Ancient Child

My mother's form is in my wings
The Wolf carried me in Rapture
My brother hath flown me in flame
With my sword the beast I slew
I am Sister to the Silver Wheel

I have danced to the twin flutes
The White Moon wiped the fever from my brow
My Father has food for many
His heart high as oak's crown
Have I not heard the waters of home?

The Lady who once was returns
I taught the young beside the eternal flame
I dance on the unhewn stone
How many ways have I had a name?
I am the Healer by the Well

I fought beside a Silver Hand
Sister I am to the Dragon in gold
Loved by the Lady of the Crown of the North Wind
The Isle I have known from the first
I play within the Wizards beard

I Benandante

We dance under the walnut in smock
We curse the Lapwing in gold and white
The veil is placed upon its eyes
Our lake is hidden from his sight
Upon eight legs I draw the circle near

I wept with the twin death in Cremona
They were not veiled from his gaze
My blood was taken from me then
From Veglio I felt the rope
My death shall right this day
Upon a sword of fennel

Dark tombs safe in silence
Beautiful Pilgrim high on her steed
In weathered skin I walk my mountains
With fear and illness it is I they seek
Where is the child of my heart?

Maiden arms the sun turns brown
Mother's wisdom upon my birth
Born under caul and smile
This earth holds my blood and joy
From afar a young Oak taught me
