<br />
when i came into this chamber,<br />
i felt the vibrations before i heard the whispers,<br />
it was a room where mourners chanted and wailed their broken hearts' emotions,<br />
o'er the losses of their loved ones.<br />
<br />
it was a room for keening.<br />
<br />
the vibrations (or echoes) came after i sat still and noticed how silent the still air was,<br />
i had not been in a space so quiet ever before and it immediately made me slip into a dream.<br />
eyes half closed, a vision entranced my consciousness.<br />
i was in <i>this room, </i>in <i>this time</i> but i crossed a barrier that separated times.<br />
<br />
the room suddenly felt full. there were others here with me, sitting, standing, pacing, whispering, chanting, moaning, sobbing, <i>keening...</i><br />
<i><br /></i><br />
i felt separate from them, disconnected from their individual sorrows, and i could not really see them, but i <i>felt them</i>. i gathered that they were not aware of my presence though, certainly, because they were not real. i'm not psychic, nor am i crazy. i'm just sensitive to energies that have <i>been</i>.<br />
<br />
i felt like i could sit here for ages it was so comforting, this <i>missing, </i>this <i>loss of the beloved</i>...<br />

is burdened into an effigy...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
you want to die by the time</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the weight becomes so intense</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
that it sucks all light from your inspiration,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
your desire...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
is it only because you did all that you could do?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
is it because you tried harder than necessary to</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
bring light and love to all around you</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and they sucked your life away</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
like black hole suns?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
you should not be to blame,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
do not fade away in shame.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
yes, you will be forgotten by the living,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but here in the land of the forgotten</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
you will be welcomed as a queen.</div>

<br />
do you tire of this view, oh angel?<br />
<br />
will i tire of it (after i die), do you think?<br />
<br />
how long have you been here?<br />
<br />
must seem like an eternity.<br />
<br />
well, your flesh doesn't rot, though it may crumble one day.<br />
<br />
and your thoughts can't flutter like mine do...<br />
<br />
staring into the endless void is our bond though.<br />

just to be back in the comfort of your arms...<br />
heaven was wonderful to visit,<br />
but ever since you left<br />
my heart has been torn in two,<br />
we are one being,<br />
two halves,<br />
flesh and soul.<br />
<br />
flesh toils on earth<br />
while soul soars in sky.<br />
our intercourse during dream-sleep<br />
is our when our love<br />
creates the live's actions<br />
that children<br />
find the bravery<br />
to enact every day.<br />
<br />
never stop loving me.<br />
never leave me again.<br />
<br />
or the children may stop pretending that<br />
they can be greater than their adults.<br />
and the world may<br />
indeed<br />
end.<br />
<br />
i promise not to disappoint you again<br />

your touch exhibits your desire</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

of the fire that burns as </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
desire to overcome</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
the frailties of the flesh </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and merge into all-powerful</div>

is it deja vu that has brought me to you?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
or am i here inside a dream now,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
visiting you...?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
if i touch you will a vision unfold that reveals</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
secrets and mysteries of my life</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
in the physical world that i'm a prisoner of?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
oh lamb, please, do that for me </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and i promise you that </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i'll never do anything again</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
that would make you doubt</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
desire to be washed</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
"be quiet, young thing..."</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
whispered the sage,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
"and you may begin to hear sounds unheard by the masses."</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i was intrigued,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
closed my eyes,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and fell into a dream</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
where the world spun</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
away from me.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i saw myself in a shadow,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
a mirrored shape,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
yet lacking the details</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
of the experiences </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i had been worn by.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i slipped into her form</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and the true silence the sage</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
hinted at enveloped me.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
all pains of my past</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and worries of my future</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
were blotted out </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
in the silence.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i slept like</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
a lamb in</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
stone.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i am easy to please,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
really, i am...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
just answer my riddle and i'll let you enter</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
this chamber where</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
mysteries stranger than life abound and confound.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
my pleasure is delivered in moments where </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i can see the simplicity of joy in the glimmer in one's eyes</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
when they reach for prizes of accomplishment beyond their</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
personal beliefs comprehension,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
yet my displeasure is equally captured in tears in my heart</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
when i see the hope drain from the dreams</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
of my children when they are beaten</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
down by the foes of their self doubts.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
do you know who i am?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
if you guessed that i am <i>the muse</i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
you may enter, <i>oh artist,</i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and dream new worlds into existence.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
go on!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
you are now free to sleep and dream!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
to perpetuate the memories,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
to keep their fire kindled.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
my home is the ashram</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
at the gates of eternity</div>

and that you are even </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
glimpsing this</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
vision in a dream</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
means that you are being warned</div>

that one day soon,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
you will be blessed by meeting me.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i will festoon you with garlands</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of your most mysterious favorite flowers</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and whisper secrets that you have not remembered</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
since you were three years old.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and then we will dance.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
we will dance, dance and dance</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
until all of your past is but </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
a blur and your memories</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of your pained flesh</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
ignite into flame.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i am your guru</div>

you will </div>

that's just the way it is with me, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i don't get these things wrong. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
how could i?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
in a foreign land,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
if you were to meet someone like me,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
a woman crazy enough to live in a cemetery and </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
walk around dressed in rags,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
you'd KNOW she had power.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
you'd pray to your saints </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
to find the strength and courage to enter</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the gates of my graveyard</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and you'd hope that </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i'd be having a good day,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and that i'd look at you like this,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
with a smirk and glimmer</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
in my eye,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
because then we'd </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
both know you</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
had at </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
least </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
one </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
more</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
we were born on three different days,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of three different years,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
in three different seasons.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
fathered by three different men,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
who loved three other different women,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
we are a conflagration of love and misdeeds.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
we yearned for love all during our years,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
to be loved,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
to love back,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but more confusion </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
was stirred than contentment.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
three different men</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
killed us.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
on three different days.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of three different years,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
during three different seasons.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
we left no more confusion to be borne</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
in offspring.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
our curse of sadness ended here.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
don't let my appearances fool you.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i am the queen of decay.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i open the doorways</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
to darkness where souls</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of sun-wearied</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
revelers</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
run to hide in shame</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
from the misdeeds of their youth.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i am the queen of shadows</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
who digs tunnels into</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
hillsides where</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
lovers lay</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
beside</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
one</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
another</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
aching in death</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
for one last breath of life</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
to kiss and fuck again.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but i rule with an iron fist.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i say "NO!"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
when it comes time</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
to end the</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
games of </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the deception of<br />
imagining there is such a thing<br />
as</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
eternal youth.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
you must realize,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
death is all around you.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i display her so you</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
can remember</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
that your</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
time here</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
is oh,</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
i've been here so long now,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the stories they tell are true</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
if you want to believe them,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
that phantoms linger on earth.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
souls do feel an attachment to the bodies </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
they dwelled in, we remember the sensations of pleasure<br />
and pain that coursed through our bodies and emotions<br />
when we walked on your plane.<br />
if you are one of those<br />
who come here and linger<br />
in the shadows,<br />
hoping to see one of us,<br />
you may catch a glimmer<br />
in a whimsy or sparkle<br />
out of the corner of your eye.<br />
we can't see you though.<br />
most times we are rapt in<br />
concentration on the memory<br />
of someone we loved or obsessed over before.<br />
trapped by the machinery of time in an untouchable moment.</div>

such poignant experiences</div>

with me that my emotions are strong</div>

enough to want to write stories and tell the world</div>

you.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
truth is so simple,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
it does not lie,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
it cannot.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
it cannot hide</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the realities of </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
experience-gained</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
knowledge from a life bravely lived.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
no matter how </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
fearful</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
you felt </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
in the battles </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
you faced,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
no matter how frightening</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the monsters were</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
that chased you</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
in your dreams,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
remember.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
you stood </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
your ground.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
till the end.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
all the</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
days</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">

life.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
i love it when this girl comes here,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
she is drawn here, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i think by me.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
see?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
she hears</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
voices and reads</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
tea leaves that make her believe</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the dead speak to her.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
if she only knew</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the truth though</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
that the dead cannot speak,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
our voices have been silenced and the only</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
sounds they hear from "the beyond" are </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
conflagrations of imaginations and confusions in</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
their own feeble minds.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i wish i could speak to her because </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
she is indeed so lovely,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and lonely...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
why would such a sweet</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
child come spend</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
a gorgeous day</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
alone in the</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
land of the</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
dead?</div>

"the transference to the other side works like this",</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the <i>light sister</i> reminded <i>the dark</i>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"we look into the fire,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and the fire sees itself inside us.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
it remembers that it moved through</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
us as blood and inspiration,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
that it moved us to create both ideas and history.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and it sighs because all that is left</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of it's fury is now but </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
ash and smoke.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
it has turned us to ghosts, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
my dear.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
fire made us burn bright.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the brightness of our fires made us shine like stars,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but now we are only shadows,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
ash and smoke...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
remnants of </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
lives that</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
once</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
burned with desires.</div>
