Signal To Noise

You know the way that things go
When what you fight for starts to fall
And in that fuzzy picture
He writing stands out on the wall
So clearly on the wall
Send out the signals deep and loud
And in this place, can you reassure me
With a touch, a smile while the cradles burning
All the while the world is turning to noise
Oh the more that its surrounding us
The more that it destroys
Turn up the signal
Wipe out the noise
Send out the signals deep and loud
Man Im losing sound and sight
Of all those who can tell me wrong from right
When all things beautiful and bright
Sink in the night
Yet theres still something in my heart
That can find a way
To make a start
To turn up the signal
Wipe out the noise
Wipe out the noise
Wipe out the noise
You know thats it
You know thats it
Receive and transmit
Receive and transmit
Receive and transmit
You know thats it
You know thats it
Receive and transmit
You know thats it
You know thats it
Receive and transmit

Those Who Betray And Lament

At THIS hour of the day.
And with time allowed,
Over the years to slip away.
Someone sits not to forget or forgive,
Those who intentionally took steps to offend,
With a doing of it they went ahead to inflict.

And at THIS hour of the day,
It would not matter who said what to have what's been done...
Wished away,
To acknowledge what took place.
Since what took place can not be erased,
From the mind of the one this misdeed continues to sit...
Long after it was considered someone's fun!

And at THIS hour of the day...
Wishing for a way to turn back the clock,
To prevent what should not have happened...
To have it stopped and blocked from a doing,
Is not on the mind of the one who is visited with memories...
At THIS hour of the day,
When one witnesses images from a distance...
A payback paid to those who betray and lament.

Those who betray and lament...
Grieve.
Those who betray and lament...
Can't sleep.
Those who betray and lament,
Become haunted.
Unwanted.

Those who betray and lament...
Grieve.
Those who betray and lament...
Can't sleep.
Those who betray and lament,
Become haunted.
Unwanted.
And have nobody near them to hear their pleas!

Those who betray and lament...
Grieve.
Those who betray and lament...
Can't sleep.
Those who betray and lament,
Become haunted.
Unwanted.
And have nobody near them to hear their pleas!

Ode to Aashu

Ode to Aashu

O Ashu, My pen hesitates to record down,
You remain an experience in me to crown.

Those moments of prosperity we shared;
Are cunningly implore me like a mad.

Hands betray me to limit those experiences;
Indeed, it limits to feel the reverence.

Your widowed shelter, pines those blossoming;
I visited once after your knock of returning.

You may encounter millions of events there;
I wish, Be honest to the laments of here?

Remember that elegant statue that often infatuated me;
Gather that bold preview manifested in she.

She could tickle your hesitated desire;
But, never mingle fire with your perspire.

Never measure your silences there; who often mocks at the experience;
Always, treasure the experience that shocks our grievances.

Never betray your cunning there; who often welcomes shinning;
Always shine; even with out light in search of blossoming.

Never feel you are in Exile there, make your exile a hostile,
Always rhyme with your present; forget past events, all puerile.

Of course a taste of Joycian flavor; keep these buds healthy.
“Silence, Exile & Cunning” will make your path to the Acardy

We are Transmitters

As we live, we are transmitters of life.
And when we fail to transmit life, life fails to flow through us.

That is part of the mystery of sex, it is a flow onwards.
Sexless people transmit nothing.

And if, as we work, we can transmit life into our work,
life, still more life, rushes into us to compensate, to be ready
and we ripple with life through the days.

Even if it is a woman making an apple dumpling, or a man a stool,
if life goes into the pudding, good is the pudding
good is the stool,
content is the woman, with fresh life rippling in to her,
content is the man.

Give, and it shall be given unto you
is still the truth about life.
But giving life is not so easy.
It doesn't mean handing it out to some mean fool, or letting the living dead eat you up.
It means kindling the life-quality where it was not,
even if it's only in the whiteness of a washed pocket-handkerchief.

We Die/And Abandon And Betray

WE DIE/ AND ABANDON AND BETRAY

We die
And abandon and betray
Those we most
Would not abandon and betray.

Teaching Faith in God’s Eternal Love
The only real legacy.

The Screen Behind The Mirror

(m.cretu.) .
Heres the mirror
Behind there is a screen
Turn around
On both ways you can get in
The experience of survival
Look around just people, can you hear their voice
Find the one wholl guide you to the limits of your choice
The experience / of survival
Try to think about it ...
Thats the chance to live your life and discover
Try to think about it
The experience of survival
The experience ...
The experience of survival
The experience ...

The Crossing Line

Split down the middle
two hearts
beat for love,
trespassing vows
that betray trust,
to find a balance
without destroying
their other halves

Two lines crossed
in secret,
betray trust
to find the balance between,
trespassed vows

Two hearts
yearning for love,
betray trust
to yearn for love

Two lovers
torn apart,
betray one another
to repair the trust
they have broken

Two loves
now irreparable,
inconsolable,
loose loves luster,
never again, to shine.

O Wonderful!

O Wonderful! You transmit light so as to burn,
Your starry nature defies all known wonders;
No one else knows the differences, but you,
For you are towards the land and sea,
Embarking upon a mission of great wonders.
Behold and feel, forming an eye of craziness,
Worthy feelings come to the top of experience.
Speak never of sadness, contradict nothing,
As sadness overflows with unkindness,
The real argument emerges from speech.
From afar rays of light help me further
Ad they are the stars of a constellation.

Sonnet -On Experience

One cannot learn from experience always,
For Knowledge is a sea; experience, Lake;
Some learn the same in hours or weeks or days;
Some never do all life, forever fake.

Experience implies one had done mistakes;
It is much wiser to learn from others;
To forget knowledge too, experience makes;
A continued process, it is, brothers.

Experience can't vouchsafe a man is wise;
And wisdom comes to one who God well loves;
Too much of experience could turn a vice.
All need not see the burst of bombs or stoves.
By experience, no man should turn haughty,
Nor should he try to be with peers, naughty.

Media Overkill

Music :rudolf schenker
Lyrics:klaus meine
Theyre watching me
Theyre watching you
Taking all the world under control
They make you laugh
They make you blue
In the end they try to eat your soul
Satellites transmit the latest thrill
We cant escape the media overkill
A purple flash
The biggest crash
Totally in tune around the world
They take you high
They make you cry
We are at the point of no return
Satellites transmit the latest thrill
We cant escape the media overkill
Over and over and over

Education is not experience.
Experiment is not experience.
A going through is experience.
Durable are you by experience.

We All Come To Experience 'Our' Truths

We all come to experience 'our' truths.
We all come to experience,
Realities lived others may not accept.
Or come to believe,
If they are not there to witness.
Or see as they sit to observe life pass by,
From a closed window and behind locked doors.

We all experience our own sorrows...
With burdens to bear and struggles to conquer.
And yet there will be some among the 'doubters'...
Who believe nothing happens to anyone but themselves.
And when they experience a pinch of pain to feel,
It becomes worthy of a news broadcast...
To appeal with the getting of attention on their griefs.

We all come to experience 'our' truths.
We all come to experience,
Realities lived others may not accept.
Or come to believe,
If they are not there to witness.
And yet...
Highlighted are the most ridiculous afflictions,
Repeatedly for all to witness close up on TV sets.

You have to transmit to them what it's like being in the theater. And it has to come from somewhere inside you and not by being like what somebody did last year.
