Ancient Egypt, land of great mystery, culture and achievements..
Land of Ra...
Ra is the Egyptian word for 'sun'. As a solar deity, Ra embodied the power of the sun but was also thought to be the sun itself, envisioned as the great god riding in his barge across the heavens throughout the day and descending into the underworld at sunset.
My ode to that great civilization and the Sun  responsible for all life on this planet..

A special thank you to Pamela Illanes, (https://soundcloud.com/user-315009621), a wonderful composer that even had her own work played by a real orchestra, early on during my writing I struggled with writers block for almost 2 weeks, one night we engaged in a conversation and Pam was very helpful, she gave me the patience and strength I needed at the time, writers block really gets to me. Its wonderful when artists help each other and I am very lucky to have her as a friend.
Another fabulous photo from my dear friend Ray ,please visit his site ,he's a professional photographer and it will brighten your day  www.raybilcliff.uk/

Me dijiste que viniera conmigo Vamos a dar un paseo bajo la luna  
Vamos a ver las estrellas  
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh 
Pero la noches es mía  
E yo digo no ven a bailar conmigo

Vamos a bailar mi amor  
Vamos a bailar a la discoteca  
Vamos a bailar mi amor  
Vamos a bailar a la discoteca  
Porque me gusta la discoteca  
Teca teca teca  
Vamos a bailar mi amor  
Vamos a bailar a la discoteca  
Vamos a bailar mi amor  
Vamos a bailar a la discoteca  
Porque me gusta la discoteca

El ritmo que avanza  
El ritmo que te lleva  
Lleva lleva lleva  
Porque me gusta la discoteca  
Teca Teca Teca  
La música que te calienta  
La luz que te encanta  
Anta Anta Anta

Pero la noches es mía

Me pregunto qué es mejor que pasar la noche con amigos Bailar y hacer ruido hasta la mañana y luego ir a la playa a darme un chapuzón  
Desnudos desnudos desnudos  
Mi amor te amo pero no voy a renunciar a todo esto

Vamos a bailar mi amor  
Vamos a bailar a la discoteca  
Vamos a bailar mi amor  
Vamos a bailar a la discoteca

Vamos a bailar mi amor  
Vamos a bailar a la discoteca  
Vamos a bailar mi amor  
Vamos a bailar a la discoteca

I fully expect some people to get creeped out and unfollow but when I used to go to church, I’d get creeped out, so this is that, and fair is fair. I'd probably get arrested in the former Unites States. FYI, I'm not really a witch.

Lyrics:

They say kneel, they say pray, then rub my shoulders and look away.
Bitter tales and the air is stale, and every song scrapes like nails.

Fingers grip far too long and voices wail and they call it song.
Speaking in tongues I can’t translate, and threats of fire if I escape.

Eyes are closed when questions burn.  
God is needy, I have learned.  
Every sermon strokes a fear and every smile masks a sneer.

If I stumble I must pay the vengeance dressed in holy gray.
I hear whispers through the walls judging me with ancient laws.

Close your eyes, eyes that pry, I was born in truth but raised in lies.
Try to mould me, I defy, I’m your fear and I will fly.

No one’s born to kneel or pray, they teach us fear to make us pay.
Books are closed when questions burn but we are here, you never learn.

Hands on eyes, eyes that pry, born in truth but raised in lies.
Try to mould me, I defy, I’m your fear and I will fly

Who I love terrifies you
A coven hidden in your pews
Your God’s a myth and you’re a fake
We live beside you, wide awake

We Live

Taza Viento [Apache Might]

When love is all you see and feel , something inside takes over ! 

I lit the match without a plan A tiny spark in my trembling hand The wind caught fire It ran It ran 

A towering inferno of love It burns No way to stop it No place to turn It rises higher It twists and churns A towering inferno of love It burns 

Your voice was smoke that filled the sky A whisper soft but it made me cry Ashes falling I can't deny 

Every ember Every flame Screams your name Screams your name 

A towering inferno of love It burns No way to stop it No place to turn It rises higher It twists and churns A towering inferno of love It burns 

The walls are glowing The roof caves in The heat of passion It scars my skin But I don't run I let it win

Inferno of Love .mp3

With A Doctor's Note

Those kind men from across the sea
Really care about your family
Sent their bombs to you and me
To blow our town to smithereens

Tech bros to billionaires
Convincing us that they really care
While we’re all living on a partial share
No worries, they’ve got cash to spare

Hide behind those values you tote
Make the world eat your smoke
Breaching all those laws you wrote
You’re excused, with a Doctor’s note

That nice king from over there
Let’s us know that life ain’t fair
Never to rise above our station
‘Cause we weren’t born in favoured nation

Another bully says might ain’t right
While devising new ways to smite
Media sayin’ all the wrong things
The feckless queue to kiss the ring
Media sayin’ all the wrong things
If there’s a God, he’s got justice to bring

“Lavender & Verbena” was written and dedicated for my grandma, she was an amazing woman and person, she was the roc of the family and just an all
Round amazing human being. She was A French teacher and dedicated mother and loving wife. Her name was betty. And she was an amazing grandma! She was always there for me and was our family rock. My childhood would never have been the same without her! 
She used to smell like lavender and have this Verbena hand wash which I used to buy for her birthday. And that’s where the name for this song  came from! 🎧 🎵 🎶 
There is Not one day that’s passes where I don’t think or miss her. Like when you get old accidents happen, she had a nasty fall at home while cleaning and she sadly
Never recovered! Because she was a French teacher I added a line of French at the end of the song which translate too “ Lavender and verbena… forever in the clouds” And My grandad passed away a few years before and I think she missed him so much. She’s with him now and I know she will be okay and happy! She is now where she wants to be! I love you Grandma forever in our hearts! 🥰 💔 😔 😢 😘

VC JACOBY - POET ON MUSICAL WAYS

Volker Carl Jacoby - Autor, Poet, Kabarettist, Comedian, Liedermacher, Synchronsprecher - https://www.literaturland-saar.de/personen/volker-carl-jacoby

Author, poet, cabaret artist, songwriter, voice actor, journalist and even pastor: Volker C. Jacoby is active in many fields.

He spent his childhood and youth in St. Ingbert. Saarland, Germany, where he attended the humanistic and classical language branch of the State Secondary School. After university and various jobs, he began working freelance for „Saarländischer Rundfunk“ Radio, initially as a correspondent for the SR 3 regional news program, in parallel with his readings and literary solo cabaret programs. This was followed by roles as a narrator for radio plays, as a voice actor, and for various commercials.

In 1977, Jacoby teamed up with Schorsch Seitz to form the duo "Jacoby & Schorsch." Together, they primarily composed humorous songs in Standard German and the Rhenish-Franconian-Saarland dialect with a cabaret-like, ironic touch. Their dialect songs, in particular, filled a clearly existing gap in the market, especially since "SR 3 Saarlandwelle" featured them permanently on their programming, thus making them known to a wider audience. Subsequently, "Jacoby and Schorsch" produced three vinyl albums and three singles. During their tours, they also performed open-air gigs with rock bands.

Soon well known beyond the borders of Saarland, the duo received engagements in Berlin, Stuttgart (Südfunk), Cologne (Westdeutscher Rundfunk), Frankfurt, Munich, Basel, and Brussels, among others. During a TV recording at the Renitenztheater in Stuttgart, they also met Mathias Richling and Karl Dall. Jacoby collaborated with the latter several times for RTL on the radio show "Die schlaue Stunde." In 1993, the popularity of "Jacoby & Schorsch" peaked – not least through their appearances with Hanns Dieter Hüsch  (A "Hüsch Evening" with music in memory of his friend and cabaret colleague Hanns Dieter Hüsch was added to the repertoire – later in 2010).

He moved to France 1994. Since then, he has been performed readings, including singing. His dialect contributions have provided him with a rewarding outlet in the "Mundartring Saar" (Saarland dialect circle), including as a reciter of poems by deceased fellow authors, to whom he lends his voice.

Constantly prolific in literary terms, his poems are in the tradition of comic poetry in the style of Wilhelm Busch, Christian Morgenstern, Joachim Ringelnatz, Eugen Roth, Heinz Erhardt, and Robert Gernhardt. Volker C. Jacoby also publishes his poetry and prose on LiteratPro, Facebook, and YouTube. Since 2025, he has been setting his poems to music and is constantly writing new songs. And, of course, he continues to write his cheerful, humorous, and often very quirky poems.
