Boo, forever

Spinning like a ghost
on the bottom of a top,
I'm haunted by all
the space that I
will live without
you.

Love's intention

"Love's intention and the reverse of love's intention slowly mark my life ... and on the banks of these dark rivers we become - become what we are to each other and become what we are to ourselves."

Micetto, Father of kisses

he smiled some flowers
and laid a wish
across the spring
turning the seasons,
without a rosebud blowing

a moonlit butterfly
set passion
as a jewel
within her eyes - and 
love made deep her speaking

quiet as a fog
birth music
its endless word
six times enfolded
smile with tear, and kisses

Where my books go

All the words that I utter,  
And all the words that I write,  
Must spread out their wings untiring,  
And never rest in their flight,  
Till they come where your sad, sad heart is,
And sing to you in the night,  
Beyond where the waters are moving,  
Storm-darken'd or starry bright.

Touch my eyes

I find myself accelerating around corners
on the reckless edge of wanting
to feel

My mind has gone to seed - 
all cotton and dandelion fluff

Hand me the candle snuffer
Bleed my eyes
of all the lucid dreams

Twisting the arc
of time's arrow
into a dripping rainbow

Touch my eyes now - 
cover the burning land

or I will go where the rivers go
under the desert sand
Hold my hand.

How long will my life be?

G20 Rap with Tony Abbott - feat. Scott Ludlam

Welcome to Rap News. The G20 Summit is happening and the leaders of the wealthiest nations on the planet are converging on Australia to come and learn directly at the feet of the master of fascist dystopian fuckwittery: Tony Abbott. Join the noble Australian Prime Minister as he lists his recent achievements and launches the opening of the G20 Summit in Australia, backed by a faithful and compliant mainstream media, represented by our favourite local correspondent Ken Oathcarn. This episode features a magical cameo from Wizard Senator Scott Ludlam, who has been campaigning tirelessly in speeches to empty Senate rooms to stop the Government’s proposed mandatory data retention laws - coming up soon for a vote in the Senate. After this G20 episode, no one will be in any doubt why Australia is leading the civilised world in the global race to towards 1984.

Neglecting other blog

Sorry everyone, I have been neglecting my other blog "CURED of PARASITES: Blastocystis Hominis & Dientamoeba Fragilis", so just focussing on that for a bit...back soon.
