Live improvisation in an Antwerp lounge-room, with some vocals overdubbed
lyrics
And in the wake
Of the waves
Of activity,
Of culminations, conclusions, completion
A blankness blankets my self
Enveloped in emptiness
I am warmly devoid of directives
Yet already considering with what
To fill this strange new vacuum
In the forest
Art becomes effortless
In the flow
Effort becomes meaningless
In the knowing
Of essence
Elements coalesce
There is no time here
Here is no time there
Serpent scales shimmer in the sun
Going down underground away from the glimmer of day
Slipping into moist earth, dark
Working into the soil, tunneling down underground
A deep healing
Of body and soul through walking and stretching and breathing
A steep heeding of life and lungs and ribs
In a vessel that felt broken
Chest and channels open,
And from this, Bliss
Ripples like a panther’s shoulder
I'm going down in mist and wisps of
wraiths who kissed my whispered breath
Bereft of life I slipped into the misty cleft of Sybil's Well
A Cauldron of the Wyrd and wonder-full I rise renewed
Into a place of smoke and lightened breath
My death was but an earthen cleft and now I sift
The songs from soil
With arms like worms which brace the burrow trail
And wend through mounds the sound of
Earthen turning heard by Heimdall in the Halls of Valor
And betwixt the Serpent's coils I rediscover vigour
Rising spine now supple to coil in tremor then return to rigor
Within the Mound the sound of ripples reverberates
Within the Well the spell sets in and spins me in its spend
Was I seventh son, sacrificed just to extend
The life of one immortal, or whose seed was turned within?
Seething, Shaking, Acting
Believing, Making, an Act
Retrieving a tract from akasha
Makeshift action
Making a shift, Shifting
The vision through diction to fact
