Dans Toutes Les Civilisations.... III

This is a collaboration with my sister Darcey Wilks who is 15.
It’s about believing in yourself and never giving up. Listening to yourself, and not listening to those people who say you can’t do it. It’s about achieving something every day!

Lyrics (Copyright PRS)

Sometimes things don’t go as planned
Sometimes without a command
And people always tell you that 
It’s not gonna work
But I believe in you 
Even when things are dark
Don’t let people get past you 
Don’t let them stop your flow
Then you will have left me
When we part…..

So just believe 
Believe 
Sometimes 
Sometimes

Sometimes things don’t go as planned 
Sometimes without a command 
And people always tell you that 
It’s not gonna succeed 
But I can see in you 
Even when things don’t work out
Don’t let people discourage you 
Don’t let them darken your glow 
Then you will have set free 
All my doubt……

So just believe
Believe 
Sometimes
Sometimes

Sometimes (Featuring Darcey Wilks)

Le doudou     ,(Translated after the French text) 
Chant     : Liora 
Musique : Alain Illos

Je te trainais partout Tu étais mon ami,                                       
Un vieux compagnon, trop grand pour l’oubli.
Tu prenais la poussière  Au fil des années, 
Un peu encombrant , Un peu dépassé .
Je pense que tu exageres : Dit l’ours rafistolé . 
Moi dans ta chambre j’étais fier. 
Gardien des peurs , des larmes , des colères et des secrets .
Pour toujours un doudou J’aurais voulu un ami . 
Pour qu’on fasse les fous , Pour parler toute la nuit . 
’aimais trop tes câlins , Je te cognais partout , 
Mais tu me pardonnais , Tu étais mon doudou .
Les jours défilent et malgré nous , 
On traine un bout de son enfance . 
Même sous le masque des apparences , Tu garderas ton innocence .
Je t’ai posé dans un coin , Plus jeté un regard , 
Comme un vieux refrain , Comme une vieille histoire . 
Mais j’sais bien qu’tu résistes , Que t’attends dans l’ombre ,
 Avec ton poil tout triste , Et tes mêmes yeux sombres.
Moi je sais bien qu’un soir , Tu me reprendras dans tes bras . 
Quand ton coeur fera des vagues , Alors je serai là pour toi .

The cuddly toy
 I dragged you everywhere You were my friend, 
an old companion, too big to forget,  
you gathered dust  As the years went by, 
A little cumbersome, A little outdated.
I think you're exaggerating: Says the patched-up bear. 
 In your room I was proud. Guardian of fears , tears, anger and secrets.
Forever a blanket I would have liked a friend. 
To fool around , To talk all night . I
 loved your cuddles too much, I hit you everywhere, 
But you forgave me, You were my security blanket.
Days go by in spite of us , We drag a piece of our childhood .
 Even under the mask of appearances , You'll keep your innocence .
I put you down in a corner , No more glances, 
Like an old refrain , Like an old story. 
But I know that you resist, That you're waiting in the shadows ,
With your sad hair , And your same dark eyes.
I know that one night , You'll take me back in your arms . 
When your heart makes waves , Then I'll be there for you .

Archy has finally reached the elusive land of his dreams. But is it really all what it seems? Is there something evil in the air? Is there dark clouds at the horizon? Archibald Whim may step ashore, but what awaits him in this ever changing America?
This track was recorded in corporation with the ever so talented BribedAnt, that supported with bass and solo guitar along with a critical input in the mix and master process. Do look up BribedAnt on Soundcloud - it's a blast.

“Tome of Stars” is a 100 sonnet journey, equal parts art, therapy journal, and exorcism, both a celebration and an elegy, a single narrative arc tracing the birth and death of a relationship. All poetry by Stargazer. The verse and accompanying synthetic art and music are public domain, CC0, with no restrictions on use. Nothing is monetized.

In the classical margam of bharatanatyam, the varnam is the recital’s centerpiece, its longest and most emotionally charged performance. In “Tome of Stars“, the varnam appears as the twenty-nine-poem section “Senescence”. Following the exaltation of Anthesis, the beloved as a celestial goddess, love now descends from the stars into the gravity of human frailty. 

This sonnet marks the central collapse of the romantic and spiritual union chronicled throughout “Tome of Stars“. All mythologies and retrospections now converge on a single period of rupture: August 2011. Here, the entanglements of trauma, guilt, moral duty, and unmet emotional needs combust in a final reckoning. The tone is emotionally raw, accusatory. It records the dissolution of the poet’s shared world with the beloved, highlighting not only external pressures (marriage, children, societal norms) but also the deep failings in mutual support and moral verdicts. The breaking point is presented not merely as a tragedy, but as a crucible that exposes irreconcilable fault lines in their bond.

***********
Lyrics

And so, in August, twenty one and one,
What Fate had carved into my bones, so passed.
The shame, the lies, the poisons old, then won,
And proved a bond eternal could not last.

My heart I’d tear in two to love you whole,
Impale my core and wreck a family.
But wounding others—children—burnt my soul;
I sought your solace, begged on bended knee.

From Himalayan heights, my trust you’d fling;
Withdraw your arms when I most needed care.
This sin I’d suffer sole—you’d take no sting
Of judgment’s blade, that I alone would bear.

We shattered on that cataclysmic day,
With fiendish cries that tolled ardor’s decay.

"Road of Bottles"

[Verse 1]
They’ve been down the same old road,
So many times, I know.
So many places on the road, you see.

[Verse 2]
One road takes you to destiny,
Another one takes you to a place you’re supposed to be free,
Other ones will take you to a place you don’t even know yet.

[Verse 3]
One place will shine some gold, yeah,
Until you get your fool’s gold.
You think you’re gonna get somewhere,
But you just fall even deeper into despair.

[Verse 4]
Look at me — I’m serving moments,
My eyes even know the war’s raging on.
Yeah, I’m in the middle of a disaster, feel down, I know.
Destruction to the right, destruction to the left,
On the road, yeah, down the pathway, I don’t even know.
But hurt is on my way — it’s stopping there.

[Verse 5]
Just a fallen man,
Even got my feelings in the way.
I don’t even know where I’m going these days.
In my path, yeah, my feelings are like —
Everyone’s just another shot glass waiting, yeah.
Take it off, I know, I can see my life, you know.

[Verse 6]
So many places bottles go, yeah,
I see them down every road.
Every place I go, there’s another bottle, yeah, I go be.

[Verse 7]
One shot, yeah, take me away.
Two shots take me to destiny,
Three shots, yeah, I’m numb to the pain, I see.
Everything in my life, yeah, coming that way, I know, yeah, this one’s fading me.
Strong, yeah, but I know I’m not gonna give up.
Yeah, the fight is on, but I tell you what —
I let the demons out my soul, right back there.
Seems like the things in my life…

[Verse 8]
Christmas clear as it was,
Too many shot glasses, I know, they’re shattered now.

[Verse 9]
Soon, yeah, I’m in the desert now,
Yeah, I’m in your rearview mirror now.
Yeah, the further that you go, yeah, you’re gonna see me.

[Verse 10]
Three shots, yeah, you disappear.
Four shots, I’m now on beer.
Fearless on the fifth one, yeah,
Sixth one, yeah, I know now I’m starting to lose it, yeah.

[Verse 11]
Seven shots, yeah, I feel the power.
I know that there’s nothing more
Than the desperate calls of the fear inside of me, yeah — monster, you.

[Verse 12]
Soul empty.
Lost away.
Alcohol is staying away.
Alcohol is staying away.
