I was called on a Journey to the west
for a meeting of the minds
Ideas born in abundance
as creative forces converge
Inspiration rolling off the ocean tides
I found a revolution
It was the exact definition of the word
It was a reset back to the beginning
This heat never relents
Causing the most efficient machines to grind To a halt
Days drag, time lags
Head down, press on
I look to the horizon for light
Even when you are surrounded by dark
There is a balance of light
but it won’t come rescue you in the night
I find my marker on the horizon
The place I must arrive
This is Step 1 of reaching the minds of many
Half of me moves forward
Hoping for something new
The other half stays behind
Seeking change but scared to burn the boats
My Mind says go west to the light
4 months pass, I have gone higher and lower
but not forward, and not backward
I am forced east
Worried about darkness
So I defy myself
and detach
I realized I had been chasing a figment of my overly creative imagination
I placed a shroud upon this thing that did not exist
And I finally laid it to rest
I fade in between this world and the worlds I create
Soul still wanting to go where the mind will not let it
When I stopped reaching for things, stagnant objects began to move
There I stood looking at a painting upon a wall that says “Legends Live Forever”
Hopefully that forever life is an echo
Transcending time not being able to take anyone with you
sounds like hell to me
STP plays in the background
while I look at juxtaposition of legends on the wall
Whitney Houston, John Lennon, Bob Marley, Kurt Cobain, Prince, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, 2Pac, Biggie, Freddie Mercury
It takes me on a journey back to when I could see auras
It turned out to be a defense mechanism
Recently I have begun to see shades
Brightness and haze
A Bump on my elbow brings me back to reality
A word is spoken
I turn and I see light in the east
It reminds of me surviving decades of Emptiness
To find Lifetimes in moments
