Flying birds passing by
leaving the trees into the sky
into the air with flash of light
you look so free when you fly
makes me feel like I'm a passerby

Did you wake in feather bed
stretch your wings and raise your head
did you feel the dawn light shed
did you love to see it all again?
To rise above on wingtips glowing red?

Down upon the Earth the day
down the trees has found its way
It's path it knows and goes with ease
and birds fly landing only where they please
all the rest a blur beneath their wings

I don't want to wait to find the place where I am free
I could spread wings and fly maybe I'd know it when I see it
but for most of us we make our way walking upon the ground
one step leads you to the next you get there when you feel it

For others still the wind's the only way
to throw your dreams into the sky and hold on like they're a sail
and to read the rising patterns in the sky
to find a gentle wind that gets you home at night

Fly little birds
choose your path with care
seeing all the world
there's a friendly place for you somewhere
there's a friendly place for you somewhere

peaceful wind is moving
all the world is too
welcome in the new
and we all have our own ways to move
and we all have our own ways to move

Beat the morning drums a thousand wings together
sing the morning trumpet song a thousand voices high
shape of dreams, endless, flowing, flock across the sky
as we watch the sun rising high
as I watch the sun rising high

"a Japanese yojijukugo (四字熟語, meaning “four-character proverb”) that describes the concept of being present in all moments. Whether these moments be in everyday occurrences, or simple in nature, it is understood that all moments are fleeting and therefore should be fully cherished. As these moments may not be replicated again, the proverb represents the importance of treating each moment as a unique experience, enjoying it to the fullest before it is lost forever."

trying on a big dream

Travelling Scylax Staring into Space

Oh, paved road, as I glide, past the city
Falling in love with nothing, fine with just being

A gorgeous shade of purple, unfolds the night
The world that breathes from this chest, lets out a sigh

That breeze that blows this journey, I will arrive

Beloved Cave Japes

1965 - you were 24 -
I remember drives down the Jersey Shore,
And the linen frocks you wore
When you’d pass, unannounced, through the door.

Late September came with the marigolds -
It’s a waiting game with those types of colds,
So you said, “Wait a while, porcupine,
I’ll be here, I’ll be fine.”

[I’ll be waiting there, waiting there.
I’ll be waiting there, waiting there.]

Smoking in the hall of St. Adelaide’s
With the Kashmir shawl that your grandma made -
You’ve been sleeping twenty hours
Through the day, in a bed ringed with flowers.

[Chorus x2]

1965

The algorithm has been kind to me,
Or so the numbers have me thinking.
And if I can contain the message,
I will drink gas station cappuccinos on the road,
I’ll make a quilt for everyone who ever showed me
Sympathy.
Oh I’ll be a star, come 23.

But can I still return to wilderness
If ever I should go astray?
And if the rotting becomes copious,
I will make a topiary from my brittle bones;
I’ll populate the empty plots with microphones;
I’ll learn to play gin rummy with the garden gnomes and
Then I’ll lay
Down upon the grass beside the midway.

Oh in the podunk caterwauling of the breeze,
Low rhododendrons seem to weep for want of bees,
And in the wake of Hyades,
Here comes the dribble and the pitter-patter from above;
The storm is near.
I can wait it out another year.

The algorithm has been kind to me,
Or so the numbers have me thinking.

The Algorithm Has Been Kind To Me
