VII
(0:00)
Witness the powerful force that creates
The cosmic illusion of time
A fullness of fortune is not what awaits
My destiny’s already mine
The hunters bless the cur and then the weapon
The fighters cross their chest upon the stage
Prayer is but a personal obsession
Prayer is the abstraction of the rage
Prayer is the abstraction of the rage
See as the envious idols of skin
Swaddle the spirit and soul
Spaying the genuine vision within
There is not an image worth repeating
All that ever is will be defiled
There is not a memory for your meaning
The master kills the wisdom of the child
The master kills the wisdom of the child
VIII
(2:48)
Far from expression the light is the word
Secret perceptions innate and deferred
Bottomless midnights of endless degrees
Shadows the hinge between truth and the dream
Mystery brings about everything
Satellite (prodigal) satellite
See how we’re deceived Made to believe we
—The children of your body
Seized celestial seas
For thirsty realities
—The children of your body
IX
(4:29)
Violent dimensions of madness
Up from the depths with an offering
Wild dogs becoming magnetic
Leaving the tracks that they’re following
Staring into it
Every lunatic
Teething in the absence of the womb
Wishing on a star
Forgetting that we are
Already in communion with the moon
Mirrors of utter creation
Echoing waves of infinity
Rise from their airy foundations
Into the meats of reality
X
(6:11)
Permanence
In consequence
Is a scar across the organs of the emptiness we are
The body
Achieving oblivion
Knowing nothing
That is our fortune
XI
(6:58)
Original light
The resolution of the reverie
Original light
The constitution of the mystery
Possibility is concealed
Within an irreducible nature
Reason will never reveal
The medium of the maker
We fear to disappear
To endlessly exist in emptiness
And so, we shape tomorrow
Like today
All is the other
Concealed in the shade
Constantly born
In this marvel of miracles made
Of no shape
XII
(8:29)
Natural motions
Lure out the ocean-child
From the womb of creation
Willfully wading through the
Brightness of being
Seeing with all of the senses
Loving in untold directions
Patterns and fringes
Edges and hinges
Shadow the cosmic unending
Cursed as we are into the
Errands of dying
Love is the light we arrive of
What of us if we deny love?
FINALE
(9:30)
There is not a mirror for your nature
Everything is truly what you are
See, how sweet mystery brings about everything
In the end we appear as a dream
Convincingly shed of the bone
