Here is the legend of Shadhavar:
In the desert
On the dunes
A Monoceros
Few have glimpsed him
Oh they hear him
His song shows
your destiny
Divine spirit, protector of the land
Melody drifts calmly on the wind
some men, can’t quite comprehend
His tune, not for all the same
Plays songs of love or songs of pain
tells a future of loss or gain.
Shadhavar Shadhavar Shadhavar
I will reveal your determination
Can you accept your own causation?
My horn umasks your fate
My melody is your destiny
Sultan comes to hear his tune
Jumping out from behind a dune
expects to depart appeased
But the notes they portend a life
Wrought with sorrow, and his reign shall end
slay him, say the sultan to his men
Break the curse he has cast upon me!
The chase ensues…..
Dead of Night
Torches bright
Sharpened spears
Time to start running the sultan he nears
The desert shakes
Shadhavar breaks
For the place
The Sultan won’t find him, he cannot be seen
The men the move fast
Shadhavar gasps
can’t slow down
Tips of the spears begin to surround
And at last
within their grasp
Nearing collapse
Spears into the air they are cast
In an instant
Swooping down
Come the eagles
Catch the spears
Sultans camels
turn against him
save their god
So Shadhavar remains….
In the desert,
on the dunes,
The spirit
rightful place reclaims
And the Sultan
trampled down
As was predicted
Left for vultures to feast

Against the Rising Tide

Lyrics:
Oh the tide it rises
With fomented fables as it
bursts through doors and windows
dearly held is swiftly swept away.
Verse 1
Situation dire, can't be overstated
The tides has reached the marble steps
made weak by an ever growing fissure
Lock arms or feel bereft
We bear witness to our de-evolution
as we to our tribes regress
it seeks to divide divide divide and conquer.
Save me your "I heard people say"
Leave the tribe
Think for yourself today
Leave the tribe x 4
Unmask the tide, render completely naked
stripped of patriotic dress
For its credence, the wave seeks vindication
I tremble as it nears its crest.
We must retard it, our de-evolution
before we to our tribes regress
it seeks to divide divide divide and conquer.
Chorus:
Oh the tide it rises
With fomented fables as it
bursts through doors and windows
dearly held is swiftly swept away
Save me your "I heard people say"
Against the tide
Think for yourself one day
Against the tide

Darkest Night
All at once we were splashed by light
A sudden shock and we were stricken by fear
Feet leave the ground and then we take flight
So fast up we float and to their ship approach
The bay doors open to reveal our hosts
No way can this be another crazy hoax
Shit!
Look out the window, we’re in outerspace.
In a hangar find ourselves awake
We try to run but then they give chase
What the fuck do they want with us?
Lead us into a room
Dosed with something we can’t presume.
Their words we begin to comprehend
Now you have the wildest part to attend
Enter into a hall, welcome to the future the ball
The music has a tone to us yet unknown
With intergalactic guests, we dance above the floor
Don't let this soiree end, this ship it feels like home
The party rages to this very day
And in this place we decide to stay.
Rahhhhhhhhh!

Imagined Reality

Lost in the color of the trees
gently caressed by the breeze
Attuned to vibrating sounds
Bouquets of aromas abound
Broken clocks ...tell time
sharpened perception ...aligns
The place seems real and divine
Vivid projections of the mind
Recall you beside the fireplace
With a thoughtful look on your face
Those same words you always said
Dreams are not confined to a bed
Passing through a pictured life
I find myself unable to deny
Reality is our imagination
Created by our inspiration
This is my reality

Anapanasati (Mindfullness of Breath)
Unceasing Motion ...how to be?
At this pace…..hard to see?
The grand canvas scrawled by you and me
Lest we forget it is all a dream…..
The walls may crumble all around
The floor can drop out, plummeting down
The sky can fracture, fall apart.
But just remember …...just breathe
The life the spirit the light inside you
Speak Sati and Slow down time
Dharma vicay and analyze
Say Viriya, persist resist
Speak of Piti and energy it climbs
Whisper passadhi, calming of the mind
The walls may crumble all around
The floor can drop out, plummeting down
The sky can fracture, split apart.
But just remember …...just breathe
The life the, the spirit, the beauty in you…..
Now its samadhi focused eyes
Upekha closes we realize
Enjoy the beauty and breath and life……..
Just breathe…..
Anapanasati!
