ever calling, calling, calling,
they drew a line right over my house,
all the while calling, calling, calling,
the front of the line reached the apex of the mountain,
they spiraled down onto a field out of sight,
all the time calling, calling, calling,
at 18-something on 18 November, 7 ibis flew over my house.
The ocean in the not too far off distance is rolling, azure, warm,
the soft breeze feels good,
as does the sun on my bare skin,
and the music in the air caresses my senses
into a perfectly soft, white, fluffy cloud,
joy floods every part of my being,
contentment, peace, I’m pliable, drifting in the flow
of what is, in light and goodness and kindness, giving, receiving,
a never-ending circle feeding, nourishing, growing ever bigger
and stronger, stronger than the dismally low frequencies
prevailing right now, they cannot resist, they cannot withstand
the tug from deep within their soul answering the universal call
of love, so let it be.
I’m free-flowing with old rock,
the drums and easy living hypnotic and it captures
my imagination in the ways of old,
awakens that drive, the passion to break every restriction,
follow the beat of your heart and the direction of your footfalls
into the darkening Friday night waiting…
Close your eyes and see the colours float through the air,
colourful strands of music teasing and tasting,
enticing you to move your limbs however they need,
however they want, toward whatever may happen,
wherever that may be,
it invites your sense of youth, of love, of excitement,
dripping with the desire to live, live fully and wholly and exclusively
to your truth, your being, your longings
and drag away this captured 55-year old woman
from the midst of an invisible war, where every fairy tale has proven
true
and every news cast is fabrication and indoctrination.
Damn you! Damn you for stealing dreams, hope, joy, pleasure,
damn you for hurting children! Damn you for hurting animals!
Damn you for thinking you have to right to abuse and kill at your whim!
Damn you for always hovering at the edge of escape
but tonight? Tonight you are going to have to take 2nd seat
for I plan to be, to feel, to do, just that which I desire to,
it is the 5th of November…...
