Joseph Machney
In our heads most of the time
The world outside the body resigns
Our heart beats in time to the rhyme
Of Mother Earth’s silent chimes
The unheard words so loud to speak
Yet guides the world mostly unseen
The man made noise makes us weak
For us light-guided it all feels mean
Yet here we are, we’ve come to this
The great awakening we won’t miss
So many centuries so many lives
So many husbands so many wives
As the history attempts to be retold
The lies happening can be undone
What truly was in the days of old?
What has occurred under the sun?
What they want you to see
Doesn’t let your spirit be free
Distractions are truly everywhere
And we are asked to always care
So much energy and time goes away
Never is there time to rest, to play
Are we to see wrong from right?
The lens, not our own, a new insight
The quieter dimensions that are us
Never seen nor taught to trust
The breaking of a system, to crumble
The collective pain a loud rumble
The body, the foundation takes it all
The weight of more dreadful news
The more you know, you feel so tall
Not able to see the distorted views
The world you live a deeper enslave
This is not the news not all the rave
As we collectively sit within a cage
And wonder why there is such rage
Quietly guided by an undertow
That leaves us wanting to know
We think we know a lot
Yet somehow have forgot
The molding of our minds is deep
And we wonder why we can’t sleep
Still a slumber we have truly been in
If we think we’ve lived a life of sin
Another level of a controlled mind
In truth we’ve only missed the mark
As a result our outlook seems dark
How to leave our mindset behind?
How do these ways really serve us?
Stop please and let me off the bus!
The herd mentality I will not conform
Yet here I am , here I was born
A lonely path , at times so torn
Let artistic beauty pave the way
No boundaries or borders, a new day
A clarion call, a triumphant horn
Love is this the feminine wild
Unbounded like a small child
Connection to Mother Earth
This is the rebirth
How have you been taught to see?
Stand up and shout this is not me!
Break the shackles that you built
Grab your sword by the hilt
And cut the BS you thought was real
Out of your life and the one before
Realize that you are so much more
Promise yourself to make a new deal
Question what are your beliefs
Take a page from indigenous chiefs
There wisdoms and connected ways
Are so much needed these days
No longer can we see them as less
To see all as equals this is the test
Until that day truly arrives
How can this be our lives?
You do you and I’ll do me
That is the mindset of the free
Mind, body and spirit
Can you actually hear it?
Within we are all the same
No one has been named
No identity , only light
Seeing this will make things right
Again can we let go of who we are?
So much we don’t need to know
Just let our spirit be free, just let go
Soar finally like a shooting star
The density of this year
Does not need to be for you
Pause and wait to clear
In that moment there’s nothing to do
That is when the guidance comes in
Let it flow always from within
As your way becomes known
A new way will be shown
Let the world stand aside
As you triumphantly ride
The waves of transformation
Another mind vacation
As you sigh in relief
You realize , good grief!
What lessons I’ve learned
Bridges I needed to burn
A picture comes into view
Another awakening is due
To form a more complete you
You’ll not find this standing in a pew
In nature you begin to seek
Atop perhaps a mountain peak
Where there is quiet for you inside
Let this in your heart’s request abide
Listening to what it has to say
Do not push this guidance away
Rest with this personal path
Let it be like a cleansing bath
Time and again this is the true way
Let the many distractions stay
In the shadows where they belong
All is a lesson, nothing is wrong
To close this with a loving thought
This peace of mind can’t be taught
The box that you find yourself in
Perhaps too long you have been?
Who does this outlook actually serve
And is it true that you do deserve
A life of light and love and peace
Build a new foundation underneath
Unlearn, unlearn and finally let go
Stop the acting stop the show
Play the star in your own unique role
No matter the audience, be yourself
