Life is but a Dream

The song playing right now
Makes me feel somehow
Like I’m floating free
Through reality

In this very moment
Every consciousness
Is making a decision
The world of the future
Is the result of those decisions
The world of today
Is the result of past decisions

Our collective consciousness
Literally builds our world

Koh Rong, Cambodia

It’s very cold outside
But only at night
My shadow cannot hide
When it’s broad daylight

The stars above sparkle
Giving all the light
And as they shoot across
They give to me new sight

And it’s true
Every day
What can I do?
Every day

Koh Rong, Cambodia

It starts with a bang
And spreads out from there
Destruction and creation
But no one to care
Blocks build bigger
In a nuclear furnace
They fly to a rock
That continues to turn us
Blocks build minds
Minds form thought
Thoughts of all kinds
Wars are fought
Blocks grow self-aware
And aware that they’re aware
As awareness expands
We all start to care

Don Det, Laos

Walking the Earth

Walking the Earth
What is it worth?
Playing a tune
To the full moon
Watching with wonder as lightning makes thunder
Wish I could show you the spell that I’m under
Wish I could stay
For just one more day

Sailing away
Wanted to say
The right words to you
Explain what I do
When nobody knows it then everyone shows it
When everyone knows it then nobody shows it
Make my amends
With all of my friends

Goodbye old home
It’s time to roam
Thanks for the phase
Of my childhood days
I’m out on my own, but I’m never alone
Grateful for everything that I’ve been shown
I’m whole with myself
And sharing the wealth
