TREE RESSURECTION

I found a piece of a tree outside the redwood bar and grill.
So I made a newspaper stand look like a tree.
Then the guitar player of the band Johnny Hootrock
Clem Hoot took a picture of it in front of his Texas tour van
with an illuminated Los Angeles in the background.
I asked him to email the picture
because I was proud of my sculpture,
of my desire for nature overtake us.
It reminded me of the Talking Heads song
"(Nothing but) Flowers"
I'm sad.

RAYMOND BRUCE COX
jazz drumming brother of Larry
just talked with Larry Cox
from Mississippi
his brother went to BERKLEE
where my brother and I went to the 5 wk summer program together
he believes that JESUS
is his personal savior
he was wondering if
that makes him right
and everyone else wrong
I said "That makes you right
and everyone else right"
VEDIC OBSERVATORY
in fairfield iowa
him and his son
were both wondering
about the elevation
which i find now on the internet is
1135 feet
and I also found this poem
written in the Los Angeles Daily News
right after the observatory opened

I don't want to squint my eye
And look at planets in the sky
Or nebulea; I'd just as soon
Not see the craters in the moon;
Or Venus, Jupiter or Mars,
There is just one, of all the stars
The sight of which would bring
me joy--
I wanna see the Myrna Loy.

I recommended
THE SPELL OF THE SENSUOUS
by David Abram
a nature/philosophy book
recommended to me by one of my greatest and oldest friends
Ben Foster
I told him that it was his Bible.
Larry Cox loved nature
i could see it in his eyes
the way he talked about the stars
the way he was at the observatory
with his son an hour before it opened
he told me
"You can't tamper with nature.
You can tamper with what's written
but you can't tamper with nature"
I wanted to tell him I was doing detective work
for the second coming
Larry Cox and I talked for SIX minutes

Swami Vivekananda on Lord Jesus Christ

.....So, we find Jesus of
Nazareth, in the first place,
the true son of the Orient,
intensely practical. He has
no faith in this evanescent
world and its various
belongings. We see, there-
fore, in the life of this great
Messenger of life, the first
watchword, "Not this life,
but something higher."

He was a soul! Nothing
but a soul, just working a
body, for the good of
humanity: and that was all
His relation to the body.
He was a disembodied, unfetter-
ed, unbound spirit. And not
only so, but He, with His
marvelous vision, had found
that every man and woman,
whether Jew or Gentile,
whether rich or poor, whe-
ther saint or sinner, was the
embodiment of the same
undying Spirit as Himself.
"Give up," He says, "these
superstitious dream that
you are low and that you
are poor." He declared,
"Know ye, the Kingdom of
heaven is within you." In
Him is embodied all that is
best and greatest in His own
race and He Himself is the
impetus for the future, not
only to His own, but also to
unnumbered other races of
the world.

If I, as an Oriental, am to
worship Jesus of Nazareth,
there is only one way left to
me, that is to worship Him
as God and nothing else.

CON SCI O US NESS

sometimes i type in the dark when the computer is off. It is a really good technique for saying what YOU REALLY FEEL without the pressure of documentation. Even as I write now there is a tangible anxiety that when I am done I will hit "POST"

I had the urge to delete previous paragraph. I just deleted the sentence that I wrote after the previous one. I just deleted the sentence that was going to be in the spot that I am writing now.

The speed and breath of writing is an entire lifetime. Writing freely and quickly, or thinking with deep ease between every word, every sentence, seeing if you can drill into the moment deeper than ever before, what is actually going on in your life RIGHT NOW.

I'm sitting on a couch in Hollywood, the air conditioner is blowing, my hawk ring is glowing silver by the light of the lap top screen, these are the actual events of my life, actual of course being highly ambiguous, and events being hard to pin down as well.

The life of a saint has very little to do with biography.

If we all share one heart and one mind
not fragmented and divided
but if the COLLECTIVE HEART IS YOUR HEART
COLLECTIVE MIND IS YOUR MIND
COLLECTIVE SOUL IS YOUR SOUL
not divided but in its totality
then there is an inevitable reconciliation of identity
where not only do you become the universe
not only do you become the skeletal shrine of THE DEITY
but you also become THE DEITY
a consciousness SO POWERFUL you can't possibly hold
on to the events of your life as your life
because now when your eyes are open
God is seeing the world
when your heart is open
God is feeling the world
when your mouth opens
God is singing

the consciousness
that binds us all together
in the playful invention
of the creator
is the only biography
worth reading
and it has no words
it has not even Itself
and when you know that state
like the horizontal of water
you exist everywhere.

Henry Miller on Writing

Death is wonderful too-after life. Only one like myself who
has opened his mouth and spoken, only one who has said Yes,
Yes, Yes, and again Yes! can open wide his arms to death and
know no fear. Death as a reward, yes! But not death from
the roots, isolating men, making them bitter and fearful and
lonely, giving them fruitless energy, filling them with a will
which can only say No! The first word any man writes when
he has found himself, his own rhythm, which is the life rhythm,
is Yes! Everything he writes thereafter is Yes, Yes, Yes,-Yes in a
thousand million ways. No dynamo, no matter how huge-not
even a dynamo of a hundred million dead souls-can combat one
man saying Yes!

From Henry Miller on Writing

THE GOD OF THE WORD, MOUNTAIN

everything must go!
neighbourhoods,
mountains, suns
radiating the
sublime contentment
of entropy, and yet
how wrong I AM!
The word mountain
is indestructible and within
the dark curves and
hooks of script is the god
of the word mountain
chanting the definition
of mountain with ferocious devotion.

THE LEFTISTS ARE RIGHT (written July of 07)

The table reflects light.
I have a stomach.
There are guns.
What is a star?
It is dark in the living room
and light in the kitchen.
San Francisco is in transition.
Leftists are right.
Three peaches are out tonight.
The oven's door
is a rectangle
within a rectangle.
A fly swatter hangs
from the light switch.
I hear crickets
and air conditioning.
Exaltation of Light
by Homero Aridjis
is on the table
face down and open
between pages
108 and 109.
I see a street light
and a radio tower
out the window.
A mouse is
walking in the ceiling,
a god.

TARGET PRACTICE (written July of 07)

It's 11:56PM.
The air conditioner is
offering it's white noise.
Insects with their contribution
are second, the the scratching
of the pen, and the sound
my hand makes against the paper
when I slide between words
then there is the continuous drone
of my nervous system
and my circulatory system
with the more subtle heart beat,
the squeaking of the foldout table against my elbow
the chewing on the end of the pen
and the visual of me in, the truly objective fact
in the dim lit kitchen
at exactly midnight now
completely naked
no jewelry
just a pen and a notebook
that cost me 10 cents
and now that the facts are straight
I can feel the intense vibrations
of my irrational dream reality
ready to submerge into blackness
the sinking zepplin
full of children
headed for the electrical socket
to unplug the red cord
to the mind.

APOCALYPSE

originally a word meaning
UP-RUSH of a new value

Nirvana (written 7/10/07)

"Do you need anything else" she said
"No that's it." I replied
and couldn't help but finish the sentence
in my mind.
"That's it, that is my final desire
this lifetime and after this pint
of mint chocolate chip ice cream
I will have burned off all the
karma of all my incarnations
and plan to spend the rest of
my days in the exalted
hot tub of the infused higher self
fully realized, the lotus blossom
of god at the holy intersections
of the opposites, the sweet dawn
of my enlightened life is
upon me, like the ocean
a vast sea of non-doing
a pile of wood to split
and a 5 gallon jug to carry
up from the minivan"

Poem written on a place mat in Beaver Utah

Waiting for my fuel pump to be replaced
I sit waiting for my three egg omelet
waiting to arrive in Colorado via coffee
burnt taste of life waving its antlers strong and dark
like coffee and I sit waiting in this heavenly purgatory
once again where mechanics and angels envy each other
and the U-haul transience of the morning
like dominoes the seconds stack up in the spiraling
black sip of death to the flesh so the phoenix
can roller coaster out of the burning desire to live
in a freedom of zero need where the avalanche
is contained in the whites of the eyes
that gigantic storm of the spirit, that CMT
in the auto service shop of the soul of the pole
of the scathing history of snow
in the snow globe in the snow globe
of Beaver, Utah.
Ultimate escapism into the endless swirl of problems
deliver us from the necessity of the tow truck
begin the horrible extrapolation of the void
that ultimate companion the escort like the
gorgeous gravity of the highway the black weight
the sunken temple of ground zero ecstasy
the erosion of total minimalism
a New York City loft with no walls, no ceiling
just the Jurassic yellow light
on the glorious hard wood floors
The Timberline Inn where the vortex of the heart
projectile gushes into the morning pool of disorientation
the guide built by the ignorance of birth
starts to decompose and weave through the dimensions
trying to stitch rip consciousness from its bearing
to bear fully onto itself
the gaping starlit shelf
a tsunami culmination of the inner conundrum
where the temple drums usher
the advance of the ash gray sand dune
the solitary tidal wave, unilateral demolition
sweet sweet personal apocalypse
silver crank arm of the typewriter
the glorious bell of a new line
on the avalanche damage of a new white page
what a remarkable gift of eternal renewal
ripping each page out of the book
to cast into the fire
so only the true text will glow
like a city
like the wet dream of a CIA decoder
the simple chant of the God of death
the burning bridge into the black hole
where no light can escape.
Check please.

Banyan Tree?

once again listening to Ne-Ne by Soulive. This is my new blogging soundtrack. This is the fluff that gets me into the gall of it. Kind of like the safety lecture before the airplane takes off. I have to vocalize minor things like my immediate environment, point to all the possible exits and flotation devices, oxygen masks and then fucking plunge in like a panther into a swan neck..... if you know what I mean :)

My day dream and major fantasy happened in Pasadena the other day. I was walking down Del Lacey Avenue towards Colorado headed to Old Town Music where I bought a black Kima egg to use at Evangenitals practice tonight. It was a hot day and I saw a tree right there and it reminded me of Siddartha, how the Buddha attained enlightenment under the Banyan tree. And I thought well what if I just sink my teeth in and pick this tree. Sit down and refuse to move until the ultimate realization of internal, heatless, smokeless light of God descends into the heart and mind for good. It got me thinking that the tree is probably arbitrary and how satisfying it would be to pick an arbitrary tree. Oh Holy Del Lacey river of pavement that connects all the driveways of America!

Well the saying goes "before enlightenment, chop wood, carry water, after enlightenment, chop wood carry water." But I would like my personal enlightenment to be closely tied with downhill skiing. Some kind of explosion in fresh powder with some ambiguity as to my survival.

Always moving forward even after the ignorance of enlightenment still moving forward, hawk-thrown into some wind tunnel where the sun is the soundtrack for the soundtrack of the wind and the roaring waterfall of the heart. These are dark amazing times. Amen sister!

listening to Ne-Ne by Soulive. Well now I am blogging. I have decided for this entry not to use my traditional line breaks. So technically i think that means I am writing prose. This is exciting for me. My heart is sad, finitely. My mind is like the moon. I am sweating in my office. But i just turned off the lights and lit the Jesus Candle. and now my writing can take off leaving the catepillar in the dust now a butterfly, i am in love with the sizzle cymbal, you just touch it and the whole universe shimmers, it's a miracle. Truly it's a miracle, the dynamics you play with mirror your life exactly, your feelings, your ritual, your own trance, you can get inside your instrument, shamanic shape shifting you can become which is why i want hand made instruments of beauty, crafted with awareness and love and made straight from the earth. God outside, go outside and watch a tree and that is how to drum that is your ground zero, the sensual tremor of the void flickering like sunlight on the ocean, that is the ground zero of music, the shivering silence made of light, and then when you foray into forte the F zone where the violence of ecstasy happens you remember it because you are sitting in the shade of a tree and then the tree gets hit by lightning you feel it, you feel the f more when you are relaxed, you feel sex more when you're relaxed and breathing into your crotch, well music is breathing into your crotch publicly being like a tree naturally giving and gentle and unafraid of lightning, welcoming the storm of feelings welcoming the violence of God and Creation welcoming the rising waters, and drumset is it's own universe and the guitar with all of its primordial darkness is its own universe, and the bass with its Lochness invisibility is its own universe, and the voice, what a miracle God has created with the voice, the silken thread like a phone line right into the heart the dark tunnel of the throat like a birth into the light, into the tides of incarnation to sail to its own annihilation in an echo against the wall to give back to vibrate the the fundamental matrix itself sending its translucent waves like angels into the void, that black swimming pool of the new moon, god bless that ground zero deeper than the effortless gifts of the trees, this is something to sing and rejoice about, we are surrounded by light, surrounded by love, and our deepest, highest, most profound desires, are cherished and cultivated by the Great Spirit and all the animals and all the plants and trees and all the elements are perpetually working for the construction of a temple within the black heart that we all share, eternal surely, surely not, surely, surely not, yin yang, night day, upstroke downstroke, get up for the downstroke. Listening to Ne-Ne for the third time. feeling the divine grace of bass, the smash ash bone blossom of the snare drum, feeling the rose-nectared tongue of the saxophone, feeling the sinews extending from roaring river of the guitar, Jesus what a miracle that everyone stands in their dark corner offering notes and gaps between notes and concocting and entity that lives and breaths, it's like puppetry in the abstract, pointing to the hands, pointing to the mouth, pointing to the lips, and then walking down the street, dancing on the benches because the ecstasy cannot be contained, this is the gift of music, the transformation of the environment from draught to monsoon, from heat to cold, restoring the balance in the battle of opposites, a harmony, coexistence really is the vision of music, all races, all times, all religions, in their highest glorified potential, music is the model for an exalted society, and that is why I have devoted and will continue to devote my life to this absolute miracle, in awe of the power of nature and its ruthless sublime law I in deed believe we are all blessed with music, SING!
