Quietstorm

Oh silent storm 

Let the rain past and thunder rumble

Quiet wind thats soft and humble

Let your voice be your beacon

and the love that you're seeking

Sing and sing the praises of pain and paradise

subtle sweet voice with a delicate rise

let go of the thunder 

and smile and just wonder

of the tomorrow 

today 

and forever laughter...

Sail to the moon

Thoughtstorm

Feeling nervous, anxious, frightened,

worried, on edge?

Hearing voices--

and they can all hear your thoughts,

and you can hear theirs too--

Feeling detached or distant from yourself,

not knowing who you really are

or what you want out of life,

Not feeling close to other people

Feeling down, depressed, or hopeless,

Sleeping less than usual,

more risky things,

aches and pains,

valium and glue

//(thoughts strung together while working... phrases pulled from the DSM5 Cross Cutting Symptoms Checklist that seemed like they should be a poem)  

_________________

Stop thinking so much! It's making your head hurt and making it hard to sleep. Breathe in and out again. The world won't fall apart while you close your eyes. Breathe in and out again. Feel the spray of the fountain, the sun on your arms; make eye contact with every stranger that walks past. Imagine what their lives must be like—no, stop. Focus on not focusing on anything. Stop thinking so much!

How can I stop thinking when I have the potential to save the world? How can I go to sleep when I have the power to save lives, or—by inaction—to forsake them? How can I rest when I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders? How can I pass this burden on to anyone else, knowing just how heavy it is? No, I'm fine, really; no, I don't need to sleep; no, it's quite alright, I'd love to help, no problem really.

42 dollars in my bank account--

I really should know better by now

and I don't know what all this fuss is about,

why my mind always swirls up with doubt,

why I only hear in whispers or shouts

but am deaf to anything in between.

And I don't know how to turn down the noise,

how to weather the storm with grace and poise,

and I guess it just comes down to making a choice

but again and again I just self-destroy--

That's enough!

time traveler

It's all so tired,

all so familiar

I find myself 

in the same hole again

Different day and

different signals

but I feel it tugging

again and again and

again and again and

again I am falling,

slip through a portal,

this one's a wormhole

that bends air and space.

I've said it once but

I'll say it once more--

It's hard to find meaning

in time or in place.

Mother fucker of the moment.

DO YOU WANT TO READ SOMETHING FUNNY?
Did you hear about the news in Mexico? all the violence against teachers in Oaxaca, the clash of federal police against them, death and rape? The educational reform turns public education into private schools all around the country, no more free books, or infrastructure, no more dignity for the teachers, everything has to be payed by parents.
The actual secretary of the department of education (SEP in spanish) Aurelio Nuño, STUDIED IN OXFORD. he graduated with the thesis “Building a National State ‘without’ taxation: the Political Consequences of the Fiscal Evolution in Mexico after the Armed Revolution, 1920-1930.”

Poemlets

You catch more flies with honey--

well, honey's all I know,

and these flies keep buzzing 'round me

every which way that I go.

Come on in and stay awhile,

I'd like to know your mind

'cause all I've got is this one

and it's getting awful tired.

----

When all you see around you

is a mess of hurt and pain,

you know the flood is coming

and they're predicting rain,

you don't know how to get up 

out of bed again today,

I say, I know just how you feel--

it's shit, isn't it?

I know you won't believe me,

I know it's hard to see--

the world would make more sense

if it was them vs. you and me,

but to say it so would be to draw 

a false dichotomy

and we wouldn't want to do that now,

wouldn't we?

----

Why build a moat

when we've got a boat

and we'll float, we'll float

across the sea?

Why hide in your bed, 

oh sleepyhead,

when there's so much shit left

that we want to see?

Why complain

when it starts to rain

when you know that we'll

dry off again?

Wipe your tears,

and kiss your fears

goodnight--it's time

to lay them all to rest.

----

Will you praise my relativity

or tell me it's a sin?

My head's the only head

that I remember being in,

so of course my truth is relative,

and so, in truth, is yours,

and that's the only truth I've found

in all "why"s and "wherefore"s.

----

Patience is a virtue

but all I know is vice.

I know I should wait for you,

I know I should be nice.

I never learned to whistle,

I never learned to try;

I don't want to be ordinary,

never want to die!

Why does this melancholy

never go away? 

Doesn't seem to matter much

what I do or say.

I have to keep on moving or

I grind right to a stop--

have to keep on moving 'til

my body finally drops.

Jolt

MS 3.20.16.

Did not have the money,

Did not have the time..

Really did not care if I lived or died.

Overwhelming darkness with no light ahead,

Was the only beacon that had lain instead.

Truly, when for years, there is no happy reef,

To retreat and breath in positive relief,

You become quite certain

Good will not prevail,

For you feel it deeply in your every cell.

Well, it’s true - nobody will come ‘pick you up’.

No one should be having all your life trued up.

Even if they try it, they will not succeed.

For quite soon and swiftly trash will pile back in…

Go to the mirror or just hit the wall,

Bend down in the corner, stretch out on the floor –

While you’re at it,

Strongly, deep within yourself:

Say assertive, clear:

“Light and nothing else!”

Cause I want to make it – I will do it all,

Everyday as manic, I will move this wall!

I deserve the freedom,

I believe in love,

I will climb the mountain,

I will feel the Life!

a true fan's disappointment...

I dont know how to get in touch with you directly...so I am using this space...I with my wife travelled all the way from Bahrain to Barcelona to watch you live...Cause when I first heard Ok Computer somewhere around 1999, It changed everything I knew about music. It was like someone directly talking to me...and I promised myself almost 15 years ago that this is the band I'll watch live no matter what...

It took me a long time and preparation to come and watch you live. And after long planning and strenuous visa process we finally reached Primavera Sound - Barcelona. I couldn't believe it was happening...we were there…right where Radiohead will take stage in few hours...   

And when Savages finished their set on Heineken stage ...we thought its better to wait at the same spot for Radiohead as later we might not get better spot. But after waiting and kept standing in that area for hours We have been thrown out from that area with many others...cause it was designated to fuking VIPs...who the fuck are VIPs in music shows??...there were no proper signs to tell us that this is only for VIPs...we watched the Savages from the same area and no one raised any issue from organiser's side. No security came to tell us that we were not supposed to be standing there cause we havent paid that much money...

And after that we were just running around to get a spot from where I can see the band...but it was all in vein cause everyone has taken and reserved their spots....All we could see from where we were standing was the lights hanging from the stage and had to jump to get a glimpse of the band...it was when I heard Thom’s voice "Stay In The Shadow"...we realised its fuking happening...we are in Radiohead show….but half of the show went in finding a right spot to get a glimpse of the band.. 

Also side screens has no video on them most of the time...so our view was lights hanging from the stage ceiling..

we couldn't see any of it...we just looked at stars and heard you playing on Primavera Stage...I never felt that level of helplessness in my life...

And we were so pissed and disappointment that we sold our next day festival tickets....it was not worth it...we left it for VIPs...
