Whence

My friend Matt Chambliss did this art and then asked me to write something. that is my favorite way to create. It's kinda like jazz improv in that what happens between people is unpredictable and always produces something that one could not have predicted. I wrote a poem and read it to him. But it did not end there. He went away and came up with some basic musical elements that we put together in this recording. I was in a metaphysical/philosophical mood. We had been talking about some trippy stuff related to Creation, where we came from and where we are heading. This is the result.

Stillness stirs
Blackness blinks
The Universe tastes like purple
Fragrant with Blue
I hear White being broken
And the myriad songs of her children
Motion merges with spirit, Emotion Emerges
Creating the syntax of pattern
Form, word, construct, measurement
The Unthought Known arises
Aware that I awaken
I know, yet know that I do not
Separate and One at once
I am a flame ever-changing, ever the same
In the Beginning was the Word
But I am made from before the Beginning
From Whence I came and to Whence I return
