We Turn Ourselves Inside Out
every
beast known
is a slave
bound
the whole
cannot be escaped
splintered or severed
dependence
cannot be
denied
segmentation
merely a function
of ambulation
self-flagellation
struggle
all you want
flee on the wind
every gust and flurry
merely the internal
fractaled respiration
the gasp of a self-exhuming
circular-consuming
cannibalistic
leviathan
we'll meet again
the next time
we turn in and on
ourselves
every time
we turn ourselves
inside out

Coming Together
the mighty whims
the bleeding abused
those who remember
twist and gnarl
in the winter wind
furtively
staccato
lagrimas
flow down
wizened
darkened
flesh
still beautiful
storied and deep
increasingly
complex
organismic
landscape
slopes and peaks
gestational pools
fermenting fonts
the individual
an unknown colony
for dark passengers
current and charge
co-habitation symbiosis
mutation synthesis
diversification
we create
persist
thrive and survive
mixing, mutilating
testing our limits
coming together

The Tao is the mother of all
The Tao is the nurturer of all
The Tao is the shaper of all
Both nature and nurture
All things are the result
All things are the being
All things are the Tao
Both nature and nurture
Link to Spoken Word
Call it defence or attack
There is no need for control
Call it hope or dread
There is no need for expectation
Act without stipulation
Honour what is
Honour what comes
Honour the Tao
You do much
Knowing when to do nothing
