The Mind of a space monkey

Lay me on ice,

Deliver me from here to paradise,

Let me rest now,

With time passing by,

Let me open my eyes,

When it’s over,

When all is bright.

Tired, sipping one more mug,

It all is numb, just one more cup.

Furnished buildings, lighting up.

One more scream, then a truck.

Toxic fumes are in the air,

A cloud of crows, feels like despair.

Then a shiver, a careless shrug,

Keep your eyes, if possibly, shut.

Leave behind time and space,

Let go of all lingering hate,

Strip down your colour,

Stop thinking of fate.

Feel yourself flowing,

Pulsating crate.

Free yourself once,

And you shall not stand,

Ever at a point… close to the end.

Open your eyes,

It is time now to see,

This world… laying at your feet.

Will you be mine?

Taste this love,

And you shall thrive.

Don’t make those limbs brawl,

For they will surrender,

To this anthem of mine,

Give in to the bliss,

Be forgiven, give in,

Move tender and swift,

Feel your body extinct.

Make your soul be empowered,

Forget all reason and thoughts,

Become nature again.

Be with me, my love.

Is there a difference between Europeans and Asians?

Between the African people and American residents?

Yes there is! Culture and civilization!

But down to the core,

We’re all the same being.

There is no race,

No better or worse,

It’s all just about commitment and truth,

Now just think for a second,

This might be about you!

Would you hurt yourself, or would it be evil?

It’s time to wake up and help those who need it!

It was a day like none the other,

As I met you and no other,

With my head clear and wide,

Embracing the sweet November’s afternoon light,

And like a gentle summerbreeze,

Your look was faithful and of ease,

We talked and walked and got to know,

A fragment of each others soul.

Until this day I do still think,

That you are like hope itself,

A heavenly thing.

Today you turned just one year older,

Another step on life’s high ladder,

You chose your path,

I hope very well,

But the one thing that you must remember and know,

Is that you are never alone,

For I am here right by your side,

And I’ll always greet you with a warm-hearted smile,

Because I love you,

You are a part of my soul.

Eat your acid, take a breath,

Smoke that shit and take the crack!

Fill your lungs with gasoline,

This is it, you’re now ready,

You contract, react, so erect,

Give yourself just one more load,

So you can take it all night long,

The bass is roaring, the tom drum rocks,

You are floating, you are fucked!

Your pulse is screaming, your ears collapse,

Your brain stops functioning, you disconnect.

Step one you take the first single pill,

Step two is the one which makes you feel,

The third one makes you take some more,

On the fourth one you are already sore,

From now on you need it twenty-four,

By this time you’re already dead,

Take the pill, go ahead!

Ticking clocks and spending time,

On building blocks of scheduled life,

And by the age of twenty one,

We loose the sense of our own mind,

Responsible and precautious craving,

Pills and money, making babies,

Righteous living, saying “maybe”,

Churches, presidents, take the lead!

I need a happy life to live.

*

Take me home and bring me T.V.,

One thousand channels, I am pleased,

Deliver me sanity! Give me idols and belief,

I need that car in order to be relieved.

I need to see that shirt on me!

Give me porn and alcohol,

It will enlighten my entire soul.

Now the new disease is killing me,

Hope will come with the insurance policy.

*

Thank you god that I have this life,

Don’t have to lead an unhappy life,

Poor and homeless, not in the jungle,

Wild animals and hunting, that’s not my style.

I need my smoothie and my diet coke,

I know, this way, that I do exist,

Me, I believe in medi[idiocy!]ocrity.

Moonlight, dark haze, shining light,

How come you are tonight so bright?

Are you there to mesmerize the nightly creatures,

Moths and spirits, wolves and demons?

Will you come lift up the souls,

Which haunt old mansions, graves and bones?

You are the friend I want to reach,

Every night, when I fall asleep.

Now and then I feel much closer,

To your silence, wisdom, endless power,

Although I know, even by this hour,

That you are dust, a simple thing,

Speechless, dead, a soulless being,

And still you’re god to me, endless meaning.

( Painting by Ruxandra Popescu )

The hours pass,

You linger, you last,

The snow has taken the time,

The horrible dust.

What is it you wish for?

What do you want?
Is it fulfillment,

Is it my joy?

Doomned creature!

Is it my soul?

*

„Decay, lust,

Love, dust,

Matter, spirit,

Brain and soul,

Do you believe,

That you fulfilled your goal?

Are you worth any more time?

This very precious gift of mine?

Go! Now! Live your life!

But do you know how to?

Will you be miserable,

Or finally live your life?!

Why couldn’t you now…

Just die?“

Here we stand, in Paris,

Aegypt and old forgotten lands,

Dancing by the light,

Which the moon us does grant.

Leaping and laughing and grabbing the stars,

We need nothing but each other and a thought,

Somewhere to start.

*

A cold winter night,

Your coat, dark red by the streetlamp’s light,

The smell of cinnamon and wine in the air,

It comes from a warm place, they even have chairs,

And as we step in, it is a bar,

An old man in the corner is lighting his cigar,

There are some seats of heavy brown leather,

He waves us to sit there and rest from the weather.

*

And so, not any different,

There may be more places,

Even in worlds still unknown.

All we need to do,

Is believe and just know.

Time doesn’t matter,

It is not essencial,

It is friendship and love.

A moment,

Above.

( Many thanks again to the lovely Ruxandra Popescu, creator of the painting, thank you darling. )

And by the roots it ripped and took them out,

It was enough, It had no doubt,

All the answers were so close,

For nothing would stop it’s craving for what,

It had found, now,

At last.

The light, so far, so close, so warm and sudden,

Was it blinding? Was it pleasent?

Might it be from god a present?

It doesn’t matter, it is new.

It is now granted,

It is truth.

„Here I am, roaming amongst!“

With a rattling sound it cried.

The earth quaked and heavens lit,

And all around awakened quick.

And since then,

Just until now,

It is still walking,

Roaming around.

( Painting by Ruxandra Popescu, thank you, darling. )

All of these years,

It was such a long way,

It changed me forever,

But now I can say,

I do not regret it,

I am not ashamed,

My blessing much greater,

Than all of the pain.

For moments like these,

When you laugh, when you smile,

I do know that it’s all been truly worthwhile.

When I see the pure passion,

The glare in your eyes,

That is the moment when I feel alive.

Thank you forever,

You dearest friend.

( Painting by Ruxandra Popescu, thank you darling )

For we're going to wake up in a different land.

One in which there might be no end,

Where all creatures, little and grand,

Do find their shelter in our loam and sand,

~

Good night for now, we shall meet again.

For only after parting we can merge,

Into the world of our thoughts to focus and urge,

To know what it is which gives us all life and delight.

When we wake up, it will be bright.

~

Hello darling.

You, by this very blue sea,

Will you be standing next to me?

Now that we both,

With our minds do see?

*

( Painting by Ruxandra Popescu, thank you darling )

And thus it happened,

Jack was born,

A former spirit,

Cast and torn.

Jack (thoughts):

„Lord! What gives?
Where am I now?

What is this feeling?

I am so… plump.

And this noise,

Where does it come from?

Is that me?

What is this place?

Why can’t I see?

Oh and this…

Drfting, fading,

So quick, so gentle…“

~

… Sleep has cought him,

Time will pass,

The roots’ve been cut off,

Now to start,

This wondrous journey,

Of mind and heart.

( And again, many thanks to Ruxandra Popescu, creator of the painting! )

Welcome to this land of mine,

Here where I am Lord to thy,

Where you will see thoughts so light and dark,

And pure passion’s pumping heart,

Will you be ready to dive in?

To play this game of beauty’s kin?

Where the horrid is behind each corner,

Where you’ll feel pain and pleasure,

Both exceedingly, pure in essence.

You will choose the path to walk,

But remember this,

Nothing matters more than love.

Now my child,

Be sent down with,

This most precious of all gifts.
