On Moonlit Nights: A Conversation

"Moon
has always been 
my companion. 
it's always there when you need it."

"...That juxtaposition 
of serenity and melancholy of moonlight..."
"So peaceful and calm, 
it gives you the power to let go 
for a second 
and ground yourself."

"Mmhmm.. 
It can humble 
the ego of a man....

A moonlit night uncovers 
the true face of the universe. 
I would yearn to hear the music 
of the earth moving 
in the cosmic rubble 
on a thick, silent night."

"Just close your eyes 
and let it flow. 
Our souls are intertwined 
with the universe...
you will hear it, 
hear it loud and clear."

Angel Wings on Fire


"Hey", I told him,
with a photo of my ashtray;

A slim piece of a bark
decayed and broken
in the shape of a wing,
with the smoke of the herb.
"I call this the Skinny Angel Wing".
The man of man words, he is
muttered without hesitation:
"It does look like an angel wing,
On fire."

Burn

Love, in my heart,
like rays of the sun
is warm, strong, life-giving,
limitless,
can lighten up a universe
when you aren't there;
When you are,
each ray, as if caught up
by a humongous magnifying glass
is gathered gently
and focused on you...
burning down every shackle
every spearhead;
burning all life, all signs of green
burning you...

Turning Points


Hang in there you little thing;
this is the climactic chapter
in the story of your life.
This is the most exciting point.
If you are dreaming,
this is exactly the part
you don't wanna wake up;
If you are reading,
this is precisely the point
where you skip meals to read on.

Filmy; Dramatic; So is life...
Enjoy!

Craziness
in itself
is sanity
you don't understand.
