Kindly Bent to Free Us
Bits, a handful of irregular bits A colored glass colors the light Warms up my spine Stars flat six-pointed stars Hexagon like baby blocks I've sewn a cloth True hallucination speak (inhale) You better get a friend to help you (exhale) Against the stream You've got to make amends with the truth Glide, a living language collides Chrysanthemum like mandala Gave birth two eyes True hallucination speak (inhale) You better get a friend to help you (exale) Against the stream You've got to make amends with the truth Pop snap crackle and pop Science fiction memory Interleaved Illuminates the heart And I won't let you down I might come form outer space But I'm here with you now And we'll travel between worlds (Inhale) You better get a friend to help you (Exale) You've got to make amends with the truth The shimmer Of that sound In the mouth Love's design Accomplished

Bury the bells Between two mountains The big trees on the other side With illuminated leaves shout I can say nothing You've been uprooted It's time to take another road I will Kiss the mouth of reality's face I will Annihilate my hiding place I will Fade into the rising smoke I hear the lion's roar Animals are something invented by plants To move seeds around An extremely yang solution To a peculiar problem, which they faced Now i must take their medicine I will Sharpen the stone on the angel's tongue And wield A blow to unreality's front Illusions Flow out from this mortal wound As I wake to the sound of the lion's roar The lion's roar And from your throat You sing to me your secrets A proclamation That everything, everything is workable No resistance A pathway to the heart In you i know How i am born (Solo) I hear the lion's roar

Kindly bent to free us, A heart-to-heart farewell, My armor begins to rust, It forms the scrapyard gates to hell. DNA, Trapped in ice. Absorbed into a fossil site. My cheek cells traced to an ancient human figure. Hobbit-sized. Kindly bent to free us, The joy, the sorrow, and the pain. Life returns to mother dust, Aboard we sail to sink one day. Beyond mere blood lineage or self-transcending simian. I rise to taste the dawn and find that love will shine on. Evolution. Beyond rationality. The one solution to turn my head and imitate The sun. The one who's always been, Has seen much worse than this projection. Persecution. Kindly bent to free. Kindly bent to free us. Kindly bent. Kindly bent to free us. Kindly bent. Kindly bent to free us.

The indivisible, goose egg and irreplaceable, loose peg It never satisfies, incomplete The future won't arrive nothing to say, don't you worry now Infinite shapes, architectures opaque Infinite shapes, paper tigers at play A kamikaze seed, breaks ground Sprouts up inside of me, spreading down It poked into my eye, cracked the egg Now there's a tentacle, growing limb-like eggs I won't worry now Infinite shapes, alpha beta erased Infinite shapes, vital connections engaged Sit down, behold the open crown through the eternal halls an Earth amidst the balls One spark, shooting across the dark Fear, craft and avarice Become a dust-filled wish Infinite shapes, architectures opaque Infinite shapes, paper tigers at play Infinite shapes, alpha beta erased Infinite shapes, vital connections engaged The indivisible, goose egg and irreplaceable, loose peg I won't worry now.

I let the moon in my heart To ventilate An embryonic wisdom Where I get to awake A living flame I turn the key Open the door The atmosphere enters my home Cause the moon's inside my heart I hold the sun in my head To self-contain A cocoon melts inside me Protection's just a weight I can be brave In gentle ways Step out into the open space Eye-level truth When I hold the sun in my head They're one in the same Moon heart sun head I'm black and blue And smile at fear I'm broke and bruised And smile at fear They're one in the same Moon heart sun head [Spoken word interlude by Alan Watts] So far so good. But the truth is funnier than that. t is that you are looking right at the brilliant light now that the experience you are having that you call ordinary everyday consciousness --pretending you're not it-- that experience is exactly the same thing as 'it.' There's no difference at all
The lightening splits the ice Thunder twice Swallowed by rain When black floods Slit the hills A turnpike filled I am a weed by the wall Gitanjali, keep swimming The aching void in me Sings softly I fear no one A cold hand at my door The sinking floor I am a soul on the run Gitanjali, keep swimming Goodbye to all of you It's useless to refuse the muse Let's carry on for future generations gone Gitanjali, keep swimming Goodbye to all of you It's useless to refuse the muse Let's carry on for future generations gone And between living and dying There's a third thing, yes The victorious has left the room Gitanjali, keep swimming

A star at dawn A bubble in a stream A flash of lightening in A summer cloud A flickering lamp A phantom and a dream Aspirations Chained to grindstones at your feet Contradictions Behold what you're afraid to see Dear world I can't offer an explanation There's no one here but love No conflict No mind tricks Mother Earth guide my ship Comfort me Despite me Oh mercy, radiate your grace on me Out of the ground Where I hide my tangled head To take the North Star And the alchemy is met Dear world I can't offer an explanation There's no one here but love Laugh and spit Into the air Laugh and spit There could be holy fallout There should be holy fallout There will be holy fallout No conflicts No mind tricks Comfort me Remind me
