It was a full moon and I was playing my ukulele. I turned to face the moon head on and when I stared up into it, I could feel it staring back into me. I was thinking about my grandma who had just passed away and about how we are all standing on the shoulders of our ancestors. None of us would be here today without generations of people we will never meet making enormous sacrifices. I was thinking about how the face of the full moon sort of looks like a yin yang symbol and how all of life is a balancing act. This was one of those songs that just sort of erupted out of me fully formed. It's about coming to terms with your past, acknowledging our ancestors and recognizing the sacred beauty in opposing forces. lyrics Square The Circle ------------------------------------------- Square yourself with the moon Stare into the glowing eye of the goddess who watches over you while you sleep Observe the balance inherent in nature The light and dark divinity There is solace in shedding your anger So light the spark and sin at ease Shout your stark obscenities and square yourself with the moon The moon is rising The tide is turning It's time to meet the real you It's time to see what you can do Just square your self with the moon Paying homage to those who came before I am honored to be standing on your shoulders The future is a book I haven't read But if I could I'd skip right to the end Square yourself with the moon ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E0Mm03s3vlc

You can't try to hold on too tight or the friction burns leave psychic scars like road maps leading back to origin story-telling. More medicine evolution from my own inner mystery. Music savors open ears Our destinies are inextricably entwined. We may bind our souls to this planet only to find out more about the Sameness of all things before becoming necessarily re-sequestered. A wall(nut) falls from a mountain top. Hulls break down into medicinal poison topical sporicide Who's the true parasite? Worms of the senses or faculties of the skull? Normalize relations with your imagination. Ours is a sacred sojourn across a dessert landscape Sliced banana sand dunes and whipped cream clouds. Cherry Red sun stone in my eye. Dodecahedonism Triangulation Subliminated turf wars span archipelagos Marinating deep in the wake of the Earth Solipsism Cataclysm Equidistant entanglements permeate space time reducing like fine wine in a saucepan of stainless vision. Rosicrucian mummies resurrect timeless recipes involving garlic-heart liquor-ish intoxicants imbibed at high noon Sun creeps down and all I can do is learn to see without sound. Find what matters and push it down below the brine Drown produce back to LIFE. Give rise to new empires of mind against multi-moon backdrops like CGI reality Aspire to inspire and respire in spite of the weight of the evidence against you. We co-navigate this matrix life eternally drifting seamlessly transitioning between complexity and brevity. Wasting time is all we do until time comes back to haunt the rusted-out wasteland barracks overgrown in long-forgotten hillsides People of the Sun perish decisively with no questioning of moral deceptions by lineage or dynasty. Life becomes most precious Above all else as the source-fire-center-of-being is illuminated. This giving tree completes me. Single-handedly sweeping leaves and needles of needless suffering away from her moist brow Furrowed Fields fallow as holy ground. Lay down your stones. Let the dry riverbed reclaim what's owned. Deep wellsprings of clarity exist in sub-dermal caverns. Labor intensive Labor of love Open wide the ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R3qITLIvx58
