Some Words:
with a toucan’s nose and a human beak, I step into the center of the circle to speak my peace and eat leaves, leave feet imprints in the skies I’m walkin on, just talkin on a line of golden notes, also leaving tokens everywhere I go, just growing these trees with speech... and reaching towards the hope ring that’s rotating in the winds as I bellow out mellowing words like smoke rings enveloping worlds, then settling down and developing works that celebrate life. with smiles for miles and styles that shine like the sun, in conjunction with great creator, we’ve been brought together to create forever with an ever endeavoring fervor for furthering flowering feathers and mountains; and out in the open with a count and a measure I drop a coin in the fountain. totter off into the distance in instants, reanimating matter and muttering magic...
anthropomorphosizing the nature of fabric of existence, caterpillars pop locking like pistons with pixelating vision, unlocking the hidden in the midst of an unraveling sentence--with a sentient interest in listenin'. i'm on a mission, delivering significant witness to intricacies embedded in incidental coincidences, over instrumental passages... like astral traveling telepathic distances and rapping bridges crossing over avalanches, launching off the planet’s surface like birds do from branches. as i stand in place in outer space and kicks my cosmic raps… the earth reacts by laughing… talking back! it’s interacting positive and causing happiness because the obvious is happenin', there’s an attraction with the dancing word collection and the universal grand contraption--the function of which subsists on the human evolution factor. as a matter of fact, we can activate the ladder with a clap of the hands or pat on the back. impact our children with a passive amassing of passion! the path isn’t passing, it’s matching
pace and with music it’s making the shape of our faith into math, that when added, replaces the traps that were set in the past with platforms for landing the crafts of our imagination. my friends it’s the folding of space and time... the ancients awaiting with patience the rhyme that will leave us looking face to face with our creator!!!
Sounds Like: seashell spirals of vine-like sound echoing out into the microcosmal regions of your overmind...
