I wrote this little piece after being interviewed by my townships magazine for a music section. Needless to say people now think I'm on every drug imaginable. At first look it looks very broken and plain. It may take a few times to read through but you'll catch onto the rhythm and hopefully the overall message. I'm also a strong believer of non-rhyming poetry and cool phrases that mean almost nothing. Enjoy!
Stroking a neutral note on the harp we talked late into dawn.
“Since you believe in all of that Zen stuff, how about a little bit of your time?”
I smiled in perfect harmony with the morning sun and wrote upon a kite…
“Well, anyone with a memory must have tremendous humility.”
We stepped along the ridge of the mountains;
Watching the morning mist settle over flowing ancient waters.
What we sought could not be found so easily.
Rather than right in front of us we had to search deep within castles miles in the sky.
What is to be found is a place where you don’t need to rehearse to be yourself, a place of self knowledge and equilibrium.
It’s a place that no one else but you can find, your own Landrons.
Looking up towards Orion’s Frontier, a shooting star lit up the silver moon.
We set sail the Dream Sea and arrived home knowing a little more about ourselves than we did before.
Finding that place of nirvana within you is the greatest feeling one can achieve.
Those who disagree tend to have yet to traverse their own Landrons.
