The Native

about

This piece first incarnated as a poem published in a One in Five Creative Arts Association Poetry book called A Treasury of Laughter and Tears. Next it was gotten down in the form of this audio sketch.

There is something about this sketch which i can't recapture in the more refined structured version which i play live. I prefer this version.

lyrics

Women help this natives career
The Native
That's me
undressed on the island of my awakening
like a soliloquy erupting
from the mental mouths of the raptuous dancing shaman
Singing
His eyelids co-joined with the suns rays
He plays
like a child
evoking creative spirits in dreamtime minutes

His worldly life chances broken down
by the erosion of the suns love
dissolved and then re-assimilated back into a new spine
tied to his time
of expansion
where fear is exchanged for buoyant energy
like a wild horse
Like a giant genital swelling up on my shore
to catch and convert more heat to love and truth
in the wake of its exceeding absence

and like a cool reed in the river of time
or the reflected street lights of Saturday nights
I give it all to myself
that way i'm free
and so are you

On the debt calander of karmic entanglements i score a simple and sublime zero
i'm committed to being my hero when it comes to all things
my un-heavy heart sings
as i merge with mirages
on horizons aflame with dangerous quarantined potential

my mind is this pencil
these scratchings are truth

and I dream of not furfilling my role
but yearn to become
one with my soul
and roam

I dream of not fullfilling my role
but yearn to become
one with my soul
and roam
to where i am needed
I'm the wounded healer
you better believe it
I have more to give
