open doorway interlude breezes flow, bring memories, bring gratitude clear opening display rising tide of energy familiar face, smile prelude to a destiny this magic place, break of day waves on a golden ocean clouds in the sky seeking a new horizon rising to fly time in a fantasy, our dreams come alive reaching a new awareness futures arrive open heart in solitude communicate with inner worlds and multitudes while inner children play ships upon a crystal sea propelled by thought project a silent guarantee that kindness will repay tides in a diamond ocean birds in the sky finding a new horizon focus to fly drift in a fantasy visions alive living a new awareness answers arrive deeper chamber quietude visions flow serenity beatitude lucid dream bouquet rising tide of destiny abundant grace, share stimulation energy this magic place, end of day

Jabberwocky 04:22
Jabberwocky (Lewis Carroll) 'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves Did gyre and gimble in the wabe: All mimsy were the borogoves, And the mome raths outgrabe. "Beware the Jabberwock, my son! The jaws that bite, the claws that catch! Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun The frumious Bandersnatch!" He took his vorpal sword in hand: Long time the manxome foe he sought-- So rested he by the Tumtum tree, And stood awhile in thought. And, as in uffish thought he stood, The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame, Came whiffling through the tulgey wood, And burbled as it came! One, two! One, two! And through and through The vorpal blade went snicker-snack! He left it dead, and with its head He went galumphing back. "And hast thou slain the Jabberwock? Come to my arm, my beamish boy! O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!" He chortled in his joy. 'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves Did gyre and gimble in the wabe: All mimsy were the borogoves, And the mome raths outgrabe.

Help Please 05:10
Help Please (David Goard) Did I ever tell you why I can't stay A broken heart & broken dreams it seems - they won't - go away I'm on my knees - give me help please. Less is more they say - all through the night Once more unto the fray - my sweet, sweet delight If you love me - then you will see- That I don't have to hurry - home - when you're away An empty heart, an empty doorway -makes me - feel afraid I'm on my knees - give me help please This life is so ordinary - but the truth will tell My life will be seen by many as one long yell If you love me - then you will see- That I have no intention to cry or to crawl And death by misadventure makes fools of us all I'm on my knees - give me help please Down on my knees - I'm beggin' please If you love me - give me release.

Ride Far Away (Ken Clinger) long before the waking hour long before discrimination long before we make a stand turn our backs on alternation ride far away trains to somewhere where you’ve never been trains for who knows where you’re bound on your way ride far away ride far away trains to your destination all neglected ways leading to your augmentation shifting back and forth they hypnotize they’re shifting back and forth we know there’s something going on but never really catching on we ride far away trains to nowhere where you’ve ever been trains for who knows where you’re bound on your way ride far away ride far away trains to your destination ride far away trains to your destination...

She Wanted to Forget (Ken Clinger) she wanted to forget all she had seen the mem’ries wouldn’t go away she wanted to forget where she had been erase the path that led astray to reinterpret what it seemed to mean to return color to the gray a distant motion a childhood dream returning a secret fantasy empathic interplay she wanted to forget all she had known her thoughts had brought her to this place she wanted to forget she was alone no path behind her to retrace this darkness mocking thoughts that she had grown her failure reaching saving grace somewhere a light somewhere the sunshine falling melt away darkness obscuring the view somewhere a sound somewhere a voice is calling calling a name calling to you she wants to be aware of what she knows when outer darkness melts away regain the innocence that instinct shows beyond the doubts in light of day a place beyond this life where wonder grows into the here & now to stay a distant motion a childhood dream returning a secret fantasy empathic interplay

Real One 07:04
Real One (David Goard) Creeping creatures are null and void – now the Real One’s – at home The Real One is a blessing – a precious – comfort zone. Lay, lay – lay on my doormat – lay at the – Sultan’s feet Tell me – who needs a stunt cat The Real One is complete. Fetch me up - a spinster – catch me a courtesan Fan it, fan it - fan it to life – the dancing – leopard - of Kurdistan No competition – no inhibition – no concern - for consequence Tell me – who needs a stunt cat No one - with common sense. She was the kinda girl that wouldn’t leave ya She was - the sweetest - one of all. We knew the Real One couldn’t de - ceive ya But then she heard – the call – of the wild. Did she see a meerkat – alert – and - off all fours Did she see a cheetah – that leapt – and ran - and roared Pre-Raphaelite-hermaphrodite – Ophelia meets Maine Coon Whatever - creature you are You’ll be – with them soon. Real One tensed on the roadside – she felt her time had come Real One knew she was - on the slide – goodbye to – days of fun. Order me a stunt cat – that can jump – and purr – and claw A stand-in that does – everything - so what was the - Real One for? Real One recalls - the days of grey – pants - and bra’s Even when - she’s in the gutter Wide-eyed – be-neath the stars. She was the kinda girl that wouldn’t leave ya She was the sweetest one of all. We knew the Real One couldn’t de - ceive ya But then she heard – the call – of the wild…wild…wild and free.

Babilfrenzo 04:25
Babilfrenzo (Lewis Carroll) (trans. Donald Broadribb) Rosge, dum la sxliplaj tovoj Tre gire en l' ongefo borlis, Misgilis cxiuj borogovoj, Tenrefoj dejmaj gorlis. "Evitu l' Babilfrenzon, filo, Makzelojn, ungojn sxirajn, kaj Jxuban birdon en l' azilo Lasu cxe l' fumrioza Ktaj'" Kun vorpa glavo en la mano Li sercxis predon. Pro timsento Li haltis -- ve! -- por pensi cxe Tumtumo dum momento. Sed dum li auxke pensis, la Flamanta Babilfrenzo sen- -hezite vorfis blurble tra l' arbaro -- tutsen pen'! Unu du! Unu du! Kaj plu kaj plu! Per vorpa klingo li gxin hakis! En lian sakon la bestan kapon La glavo snikersnakis. "Kaj cxu la Babilfrenzo mortis? Brakumu min, knabeto, hoj! Ho frabgxa tag'! Kala-Kalag!" Li cxortlis pro sia gxoj'. Rosge, dum la sxliplaj tovoj Tre gire en l' ongefo borlis, Misgilis cxiuj borogovoj, Tenrefoj dejmaj gorlis.
