Mind Over Matter

I want to share my dreams with you

Mind over matter

as I walk across hot coals

I want to build strong teams with you

Life on a platter

As I talk the talk

For our top goals

A level playing field?

Make money flatter

Mind over matter

Flooded deep

Or on fire

Spread resources

OUR need is dire

*

I want to share my dreams with you

Mind over matter

as I walk through hard card walls

I want to build strong teams with you

Life doesn’t shatter

As I walk the walk

For our cold calls

Fair deals come to the table?

Make money flatter

Mind over matter

All classes stable

Maxed-out desire

Sharing resources

To take our game higher

*

How can I share my dreams

Without a level playing field?

They ask for so much more

As if I have a perfect basic yield

How can I share my dreams

Without fair deals coming to the table?

They want so much more

They often want more than we are able

With no fair pay for hard labour

They want us to climb the ladder

My dreams are for our best world

With heart and soul

And mind over matter

*

I want to share my dreams with you

Mind over matter

as I walk across water

I want to build strong teams with you

Life of a mad hatter

As I rock the rock

For hard core hotter

A mountain ahead to climb?

Make money flatter

Mind over matter

We’re losing time

Down to the wire

All share resources

To help us all rise higher

*

How can I share my dreams

If they don’t seem to matter?

They want so much more

Like we are all some grand slam batter

How can I share my dreams

If they just crash and clatter?

The world demands so much more

The system needs way more chatter

That’s why I offer my dreams of a world

Where money gets much flatter

All it will take to make it happen

Is to use more mind over matter

A Better Spin

Sometimes we put our feelings

Out there

If they are ironclad

We don’t mind doing that

The weight is heavy

But we are protected from the arrows of

Question

Ridicule

And most opposition 

We hang it out there

Our hearts softly vulnerable

But metal gears

Poetry in motion

Musical beat

*

Rolling rock is

Charging on

Down the road

Totally original

History explains to us

why one is

not just another freak

Could not explain

The reach of the amazing juggernaut

Driven directly down

And blazing as we dug her hot

Sunny thinking

Shadows’ memory

Mere moments fade as

Tomorrow glows

*

Sometimes we put our feelings

Out there

Sometimes out on a limb

Soon: a bird on a wing

The heights are wild

But we are protected from the talons of

Apprehension

Nervousness

And higher opposition

We spread it out here

Our hearts hardly vulnerable

Now flying free

Poetry in motion

Musical beat

*

Soaring hawk is

Charging on

Above the road

Totally original

History explains to us

why one is

not just another freak

Could not explain

The reach of the amazing juggernaut

Ascending straight up

And shining as she has her shot

Now sun is sinking

Earth’s memory

Lost moments return

As tree tops pose

*

Musical beat

like feet on a branch

Walking the street

or coming in to land

A juggernaut

She’s the time we’ve got

The sun goes up

The sun comes down

To stay on top

We follow right around

Poetry in motion

It’s the way we look at it

We can’t getDown

If we don’t give in

We get straight up

With a better spin

*

Sometimes we put our feelings

Out there

If they are in tact

it’s best to do that

Sharing connects us

And we are protected from all times

No comparison

Stereotypes

or tiresome opposition

We climb over the hill

Our hearts mutually vulnerable

Machines appear

Poetry in motion

Musical beat

*

Lucid talk is

Charging on

Up this road

Totally original

History explains to us

why one is

not just another freak

Could not explain

The reach of the amazing juggernaut

Heading right around

And staying on course with her spot

For calm thinking

Today’s memory

Moments to make peace

Find future so close

*

Musical beat

like heating up plans

Perfectly complete

For the causes we stand

A juggernaut

She’s the time we’ve got

The sun goes up

The sun comes down

To stay on top

We follow all around

Poetry in motion

It’s the way we look at it

We can’t get down

If we don’t give in

We get straight up

With a better spin

Stormy Night

Hope is on the horizon

The future is alive

But it’s a stormy night outside

Such a stormy night

Faith is placed in tomorrow

Our future will arrive

But it’s a stormy night outside

Another stormy night

Don’t mistake a calm bright day

As a break from the action

And don’t forget your peace of mind

If the storm has no distraction

*

Hope keeps us dialed-in

For future dreams we strive

It’s a stormy night tonight

A harsh and stormy night

Faith, you may have to borrow

Friendship helps us thrive

Optimism finds the light to get by

Every stormy night

Aim for no conflicting desire

What do we all really want?

Storms rage on endlessly

There’s a wicked storm tonight

*

No damage taken

The life we’re making

Stands up to any storm

The others took it

While we weren’t looking

We share feelings

Now our connection is warm

Now we’re living up to it

As we try to keep

Giving for the greater good

Won’t hit rock bottom

But the thunder is rolling

Just like we knew it would

*

Stormy night

And bright lights to pull us through

Stormy night

Can make our dreams come true

If we can get through hard times

We find a better point of view

*

Stormy night

And calm insight to pull us through

Stormy night

Can change our point of view

Brace for the worst

Strive for the best

On this stormy night

It’s all that we can do

*

Hope is on the horizon

The future is alive

But it’s a stormy night outside

Such a stormy night

Faith is placed in tomorrow

Our future will arrive

But it’s a stormy night outside

Another stormy night

Don’t mistake a calm bright day

As a break from all the action

And don’t forget your peace of mind

It will help you get more traction

*

Stormy night

And bright lights to pull us through

Stormy night

Can make our dreams come true

If we can get through hard times

We find a better point of view

*

Stormy night

And calm insight to pull us through

Stormy night

Can change our point of view

Brace for the worst

Strive for the best

On this stormy night

Forget all the rest

And do our best

It’s all that we can do

Alright Again

Sunset to sunrise

Deep dreams in minds’ eyes

We find our world

And in daytime we rise again

*

Sunrise to sunset

Day dreams, a safe bet

We search for our world

In our minds’ eyes

Until it is prized again

*

For moments or even hours

We may miss life’s special powers

But when we seize the day and the night

Life’s dreams hit

New highs again

*

Sunset to sunrise

Passing dreams, the night hides

Till we find our star

And daytime finds the light again

*

Sunrise to sunset

Waking dreams we always get

Immersed in sun

In our minds’ eyes

Until their demise again

*

Smouldering in evening hours

Into night, blackness devours

But when we seize the day and the night

Life’s dreams hit new heights again

*

Whether we embrace

Darkest night

Or challenge the brightest day

Dreams can remain forever true

And never go away

They may seem to fade

Disappear out of sight for a while

But if we hold on tight

And have a caring style

They come surging through dull clouds

Lighting up the skies

Growing like trees and towers

Through any sunset and each sunrise

*

Sunset to sunrise

Deep dreams in minds’ eyes

We find our world

Each daytime we rise again

*

Sunrise to sunset

Day dreams we just met

We develop in our world

In our minds’ eyes

Until they are wise again

*

Over years or in even hours

We invest in life’s special powers

And when we seize the day and night

New dreams hit life’s skies again

*

Whether we embrace moon and stars at night

Blue or grey throughout our day

Some dreams become forever true

And always choose to stay

They may find the shade

Become unclear or less bright with a smile

Then when we hold on tight

And keep a caring style

They emerge from dark clouds

All nightmares subside

Storms ease to breeze and showers

We face any sunset and each sunrise

*

Like a waterfall

Stars and moonbeams play

Sunshine splashes down

Now true dreams stay

*

Sunset to sunrise

Deep dreams in minds’ eyes

We find our world

When we find our light again

*

Sunrise to sunset

Daydream a sure bet

We see day and night

With our minds’ eyes

Until life feels alright again

Holding on to our dreams

With a caring style

Helps life to be quite alright again

Move and Soothe

One by one

Click off the sun

Wondering more than anyone

What the night will bring

When we dance and sing

Our mood won’t be left in silence

Sharing and caring

Being more aware and

All of us staying in a groove

We all feel known

All on our own

As the energy of the room

Moves and soothes

And you move and soothe

*

One by one

The days are done

Our time in the light

Was so much fun

Now a star’s voice in the night rings

And we dance and sing

Approved daily-grind defiance

Sharing and caring

Being more aware and

All of us staying in a groove

We all feel known

When we take that tone

Derived from the energy of you

And with music

We move to the moon

*

We move to the moon

Sway with the stars

Our favourite tune

In cars or in bars

Underneath our feet

And above our heads

Reality in streets

And dreams in our beds

The music can’t hide

If we find it inside

Hard-core on the road

Soft spots that have showed

We all want

The music to shine through

*

One by one

The moon

We have won

To win night and day

We take the long run

We do the Night thing

When we dance and sing

The moon and stars our only guidance

Sharing and caring

Being more aware and

All of us staying in a groove

We all feel known

Down to the bone

As the energy of the tunes

Moves and soothes

And we move and soothe

Pretty Wicked

You said in your head

“That’s pretty wicked”

I said “You haven’t seen anything yet”

You raised me to be fair

I’m always aware

Of your brilliance

The star of our dreams

You’ve given me all I need

Naturally being and seeing

A goddess who’s got all of me

Goddamn or God Bless!

All so very wicked

And you are pretty wicked to me

*


Tantalising

Not compromising

Anything for taste

Working harder than a

Truck motor

Winning any race

To keep it even you’re a steamroller

And I’m just keeping pace

If I ever stepped out of line

I know you’d put me in my place

And when we both step it up together

There’s nothing we can’t face

*


You said what you meant

That’s pretty wicked

You said I haven’t seen anything yet

You raised me not to stare

I’m always aware

Of your beauty

The world of our dreams

You’ve given me all I need

Naturally being and seeing

A goddess who’s got all of me

Goddamn or God Bless

All so wildly wicked

And you are pretty wicked to me

*


Strategizing

And improvising

Anything for peace

Working smarter than a computer brain

Human energies increase

To keep it going, you’re a freight train

Our love will never cease

The way we connect on the line

I know the brakes we can release

And when we both get rolling together

Pure kindness is our grease

*


You said it again “That’s pretty wicked”

I feel we haven’t seen anything yet

You raised me to take care

I’m always aware

Of your resilience

The rebirth of our dreams

You’ve given me all I need

Naturally being and seeing

A goddess who’s got all of me

Goddamn! GodBless!

You are pretty wicked

In fact: Totally wicked to me

Seasons Rolling with the Wind (Etched into Eternity)

Quiet now

Except for poetry

Sprawling seas of Winter

Before us

Frozen like thoughts

Criss-crossing in alternate dimensions

Storming through the yard

Covering all the bases

The run home is celebrated

As a marathon

With banners of all colours

Rolling with the wind

And etched into eternity

*

Loud sound

It is my heartbeat

Breathing into the Spring

to follow

Waking like ideas

Roots rising through immaculate ascensions

Bursting into all time

Until standing for the ages

The highest branches

Bearing gifts

Ripened for the gods

With promise of all colours

Rolling with the wind

We catch them with eternity

*

A sign of the times

A door to the future

We express ourselves

Out here on the fringe

The stars guide us

As the handle turns fast

Moving our dreams on the hinge

The year here rotates

Around the sun

No need to be subtle about poetry

The music you share helps everyone

They say:

I love every note you devote to me

*

Quiet no more

In favour of poetry

Living fields of Summer

Before us

Dancing like thoughts

Swaying through allternate dimensions

Heating up the moment

Wavering mirage replaces

The far road that’s anticipated

As a brand new song

With a myriad of all colours

Rolling with the wind

And stretched into eternity

*

Loudness in store

This is my heartbeat

Pounding right through the Fall

to follow

Raking in ideas

Souls rising with whirlwind ascension

Versing all time

Constantly flowing through the ages

The highest branches bearing gifts

Enlightened by the gods

With mixing of all colours

Rolling with the wind

In touch with eternity

Opening Their Eyes

If we don’t look back

They may never attack

Still all the same

Let’s stay ahead of the game

*

I am quite sure you know

About the truth in my life

Except from their angle

They brandish it like a knife

*

There’s no cure more pure

Than opening their eyes

A drop of rain wakes

Or sunshine through the blinds

**

If we don’t look back

We can still lead the pack

Still with the blame

We may have to clear our name

*

I am quite sure you know

That the truth is most wise

Except from their angle

They benefit from lies

*

There’s no cure more pure

Than opening their eyes

To stop the pain breaks

Illusion in their minds

*

I’m dedicated to the truth

More intense than the scenery

I’m betting we make it through

I’m dedicated to you

I’m dedicated to me

I’m dead to the world

And I don’t want to be

The cure for the situation

Is for all of us to be free

Free from harmful close-minded vision

And open to total equity

**

If we don’t look back

We will miss out on fact

We all find fame

If we can stake each claim

*

I am quite sure you know

That the truth still can shine

Except from their angle

It seems like a fine line

*

There’s no cure more pure

Than opening their eyes

The path lightening takes

A bright past to the future binds

Moving Parts

In my head

Got it all figured out

Until the world comes along

and fills me with doubt

Clouding over the sun

Got me on the run

But I will never go wrong

I know what life’s about

*

Quick changes

Get steady

Hold tight until we’re ready

Mild manners

Wild new days

Kind hearts

Burn through the haze

*

In my head

Want to scream and shout

Until the world comes along

and works it out

Clearing clouds share the sun

Fear fades, fast undone

I will never go wrong

I know what life’s about

*

Calm stages

Get steady

Hold tight until we’re ready

Kind planners

Find cool days

Wild hearts

Call all the plays

*

I know what life’s about

Change and progress

Climbing higher

Falling low fast

I aim for patience for all time

Life can turn On a dime

Things work out for the best

When I believe in no stress

Every once in a while if life is pain

I reach out for help

With faith in myself

Feel the sun or the rain

Until life’s better again

And to make it best

I love the rest

*

Love rages

Get steady

Hold tight until we’re ready

Mind slammers

Wise, true days

Inspired hearts

Are more than a phase

*

Moving parts

In my head

Got it all figured out

When the world comes along

Without a doubt

Clouds fade in the sun

A star for everyone

We can never go wrong

If we know what life’s about
