Engagement request: please like, repost, and send me a direct message asking for the playlist and I'll send it ova. Thank you! Engagement is a huge help on this platform for all of us artists. 

Played originally at Asheville Movement Collective on May 12th, 2023. Re-recorded and refined some transitions before publishing it two days later.

The theme for this dance is inspired by a poem referenced in many Hollywood films, perhaps most notably in the blockbuster movie “Interstellar.” Written by Welsh poet Dylan Thomas in 1947, it has been suggested that it was written for his dying father.   

“Do not go gentle into that good night” 
by Dylan Thomas

Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

This ecstatic dance set explores the theme of interstellar and inter-dimensional travel both through the portal of dying, and through the portal of distorted perceptions caused by love, desire, fear, angst, and rage. It will resolve itself into a space where surrender, grief and courage can take root before taking flight.

My Intention Poem for this dance:

What if I told you
We are exactly where we should be
And if it was supposed to be another way
It would be
All the resistance 
All the harmony
All the chaos
All the glory
We are here writing our collective story
From a purely objective perspective
Maybe we could see
There’s no actual separation of you & me
Particles dancing in this infinite sea
Of chaotic tranquility 
There is no right way to be
So you be you as you be
And I’ll be as I be
In all our perfectly imperfect glory
We are Wabi Sabi
Our cracks and our scars
Our struggles and pain
They contain 
So much beauty 
So let’s shake that booty
Like it’s our sacred duty
And while we’re at it 
Love ourself unconditionally
This is our permission slip
For authenticity
To be exactly
As we do be
Because we are truly
A unique frequency
That is necessary
That fits perfectly
In all this chaotic harmony

I wrote the sonnet below as the intention and theme for the dance.

Fly Butterfly Fly

Upon this morning sun with golden ray,
Did paint the sky in hues vibrant and new,
A butterfly, in graceful, bright display,
Took flight, and from the meadows, upward flew.

Its wings, a tapestry of colors rare,
Did catch the light, and glistened in its glow,
A wondrous sight, it floated through the air,
Its path uncharted, yet it seemed to know.

As winds whispered softly to its frame,
It danced and fluttered, free from all tether,
Through boundless skies, with never a hint of shame,
It journeyed on, with courage and splendor.

Oh, butterfly, your flight inspires me,
To venture into the unknown, this time free.

Invitation/Intention: Surrender

In the face of uncertainty, of transformation, of that which we cannot control comes the ultimate test- do we resist, or do we let go?
When we resist, the shadows come out, and the suffering comes in…
But when we accept, allow and embrace, we become open to the new paradigms of being that beckon us, we release our desires, and we find the flow, 
basking in the light of our liberation.

“There is no greater misfortune 
than wanting something for oneself.
Therefore he who knows 
that enough is enough 
will always have enough”
- Tao Te King, chapter 47

Special thanks to Purrriestess for the amount of love and support she provided in the making of this set. I wouldn't be doing it without her inspiration. Truly a wise and multidimensional muse.

AMC - Ecstatic Dance - Surrender

The law of impermanence states:
All that arises eventually passes
All that was born eventually dies

As I look deep into your eyes
I see a love that defies 
this law of nature
That is forever
Because
We are natural born rebels
Reveling without a cause
Breaking all the laws
Just because
We see
We are that love 
Which we seek
We are this safe space 
This eternal place
It is within you
And can be tapped into
By whomever
Allows themself to enter
The stillness in the center
Of their body temple

This present moment machine 
Time travels through it
Music moves to it
It is beyond the mind
Beyond the waves of sensations
The ocean of expectations
The lows of depressions
The highs of elations
ever changing inner relations
deep revelations 
Inner revolutions 
Planetary rotations 
these Sacred formations
Beyond all imagination 
Beyond all expectation 
In the center of creation 

I’ll meet you there
Where awareness itself
becomes self aware
As the holy water
Drips from the pore
Onto this dance floor
Where our eyes
Lovingly expose the lies
Of the veil that hides
The truth inside 
That this dance 
Will continue 
Long after this body dies
- Josiah

Worlds in Transit

A big part of my journey has been centered around the music I share amongst friends and family. My inspiration started at a young age playing different instruments with my family. Such an intimate style of relating allowed us to connect in a more creative and harmonious way. The joy and sadness experienced within musical collaboration initiated my personal healing process, which eventually led me to live out my soul’s purpose of sharing these gifts with others.
