7/01/2010 Italian Rainbow Gathering

Written after the first day at the gathering.

Tranquil, vanquish noise 'cept chirp from birds

On angled branches dangle, spiraled leaves to 

mimmic nature, exceeding viral seeds of danger

the sun breeds flames but not of anger

To this life, this place, I am a stranger

I did not know life could be like this

I'm shocked liked touching tazers

Herein lies the flavor, I'm my savior

Not your' Jesus born of manger

Single cell with helix, this is the womb, I am the fetus

There is a God inside my kneecaps, in my ankles, feet to

arms that wrangle fingers, I can feel the love it tingles

in my blood, in my heart, my ever beating engine needed this

jump start, this is the fuel that keeps me going, tool so

deep it's flowing, I was a foolish creep, not knowing

I was truly weak

Beauty transcends the depths of skin, not

the sex appeal of which they speak, this is not beauty

There is only one beauty, one body, one mind, and to find

this is my duty

I could write a million words or try to to paint a picture first

Attempt to calculate, or arbitrate, or

desecrate the meaning

Instead I will amalgamate with feeling, my reality,

my essence and my being

On this world there is no ceiling 

Heaven is not perched above the cloudy girth

Its' place is just above the dirt, where I pose on rocks

It lies beneath my shirt and socks

This is heaven here on Earth.
