Elementalist - Part I

Dropped
the very essence
                    of me
filling my lungs
- as it slowly
    c h o k e s
         me -
falling,
into a void
           and a feeling:

standing in a crowd

Intimidated! by the shear SIZE and
                                          sublimity of
these waters where nothing ...
          seems to move,
matter,
               materialize,
                                make sense.

This endless blue, reflecting the masses
Here I am simply: a bottle in the ocean
A neglected note
A dying dream
An ignored idea
A thought fading ...
... on a journey
everywhere, where anywhere is nowhere and
somewhere is nowhere near where
anyone, someone, everyone should
feel, think, fear or be found caught
by careful currents clearing and cleaning
up...
... float forever, bound to float along, forever, and
wait, for it all
wait, to just dry out and then
wait, bury in to the ground and
wait, just
wait, for the one
wait, for the unthirsty

pick me up

Elementalist - Part II

Swallows swinging in the sky
playing with clouds whom
never seemed whiter
breathing in sunlight
as if, there was no tomorrow.

Cough!
Am I awake?
Dark clouds cast thunder
and smile as they cry over us;
they dare to take pity.

The sun forever claimed

The ground, the very essence
left observing
freezing, so feeble, fading;
The whitest there is.

A mental ice age

Changed in the absence:
Gloomy air compressed,
between clouds & care.

Hear hymns flapped from wings with fear flaming forever:
"All power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely"

Elementalist - Part III

Inferno! It catches me
off guard with a sensation
of something in ember, temptation!
burning thoughts breathing fire
with each second all exploding
in my veins, I AM ABLAZE
particles on fire forever
doomed to rage; this goddamn world
as percieved to be at ease
Soldier! Incarnation -
through fire facilitates
- a wake up call: my destination
Lit up, this smoke I will inhale
A message: I exhale
my contamination
turning jaded eyes red;
"STAND ABLAZE,
Inhale-Exhale brothers,
a call to arms!"

Elementalist - part IV

United, moving mountains in
Unison, making things matter
Utilizing, everyone and each other
and without wings simply
stepping, shaking the foundation and
ripping up roots and instead inspiring innovation.
Come all you weary, Come gather up near me.
Break your iron bars and shake, shake!
Embrace the end and erase the ends, the
essence of earth will wipe out weathered walls and
SEND THE SKY SULKING
