LEPERS OF WISDOM

Come Out

at the edge of a dreamscape, she waits, to cut into illusions that seal her fate, tear into the air, it’s always the dare, this time it’s too lucid, this time it’s for real There’s a heroes journey, playing out its myth, in a land of illusion, violence and death, we can rise to our greatness or fall to abyss, stay stuck in our darkness, or come out, come out and experience bliss...bliss, such is this, and what is this, a modern world, fantastic and plastic, surreal and absurd, neurotic and toxic, with ignorance and greed, a poisoned paradise, where pedophiles run free, so the monsters asleep have yet to wake, but the lepers of wisdom will show the way, rip into delusions, step out of the clouds, go beyond the image, go beyond the shrouds and come out…come out…and experience…there’s a heroes journey, playing out its myth, in a land of illusion, violence and death, we can rise to our greatness, or fall to abyss, stay stuck in our darkness or come out(repeats) and experience...bliss, bliss (repeats) such is this, she’s leaving the status, the mental apparatus, watch her go, watch her fly, like Lucy with diamonds in the skies, tear into the air, it’s always the dare, this time it’s too lucid, this time it’s for real, rip into the shrouds, tear into the scenes, for a new dream and come out, come out, come out…


11:11 pm

open your eyes are you surprised that were here? we’ve come back this time and there is nothing you’re little heart should fear, my dear the birdie told me where you tumbled and slipped, where your spirits lay buried and your precious crown is, what I’ve been sent to do is retrieve lost soul parts back to you, now here are the grounds, our work is cut out, we’ll change the school years of empty, to a childhood of plenty, la, la, la…it’s the purging of recess, where the secrets are kept, see the powers are dancing, in the seat of your chest, in your red and green dress (living in two worlds, spirit and flesh, chorus of angles, at 11:11 pm, every evening, same hymn, answers to questions, how long, why and when, if I die before I wake, I pray the lord my soul to take, and if I die before I wake, I pray the lord my soul to take) bless this child, bless her fears, bless all innocence that has fallen from her tears, bless this child, bless her frown, bless all circumstance that brought self-esteem crashing down, my dear the birdie told me, where you tumbled and slipped, where your spirits lay buried and your precious crown is, now here are the grounds, our work is cut out, we’ll change the school yard of empty , to a childhood of plenty, all is forgiven, all will be well, see you walked beyond heavens, you crossed your own hell, in the summer time the living will be easy, just believe me, just believe, just believe...


Have You Seen Me?

my name is Patricia Bell, I was born 9 .18 .1994, my hair is black, deep as coal, my eyes are hazel, but my heart grows cold, (1-8-0-0-8-4-3-5-6-7-8) please have you seen me?, if you do will you tell? I wish I could take you into the skies, over the steeples where the soul flies, showered by angels, I’m bathed in light, washed of all evils, for one more night, please…have you seen me? call the cops end this hell, won't you free me from the nightmare that never ends, from the dirty old man’s shaking hands (1-8-0-0-8-4-3-5-6-7-8) it was 6.5.1999, on the date missing, I was only five, I was last seen in Jasper Tennessee, holding hands with the devil, his name Carl Bell (1-8-0-0-8-4-3-5-6-7-8) I wish I could take you into the skies, over the steeples where the soul flies, showered by angels, I’m bathed in light , washed of all evils, for one more night, My name is Patricia Bell, my hair is black, deep as coal, my eyes are hazel, but my heart grows cold


Snake Charmer

When you look, look deeply, when you speak, speak softly, the taste of your lips so sweet, snake charmer you put a spell on me and when you breathe it fills me, put your hands around me, and when you move - you move so deep, inside me, I’m sinking, I'm drinking elixirs stolen from the lands of the drunken gods, intoxicates, in-satiates, snake charmer, you put a spell on me


Dangerous Curves

No where to run to, no where to hide, you took the loneliest path dear, just to be by my side, you obeyed my heed, brought your love to me, I’ll give you what you came for, I’ll give you what you need, come… to me…tonight…between the Earth and the Sky, between the heat of my thighs, behind the gaze of my eyes, beyond the secrets and lies, between the folds of my lips, beyond the curve of my hips, let your tongue be the guide and record every line, so feel your way inside, into this soul of mine, dangerous curves, makes for dangerous risks, but I know what ails you, and I know what you’ve missed, so trust in my gestures, just trust in my kiss, dangerous curves, makes for dangerous risks, but I know that you’re worthy, and you’ve waited for this… so trust in my gestures, just trust in my kiss


Stretch

A strange dream, white stairs, white vaulted ceilings, on a bed, white sheets, two bodies rolling and twisting, pushing, pulling, laughing kissing, they're getting ready for something, an important meeting, this is how it should feel, stretch me here, stretch me there, stretch me everywhere (repeats) the same moon, the same sky, the same words, at the the same time, the same smell, the same place, the same hands, over the same face, open windows, open floors, open endings, trap doors, under your feet, over your head, over your means, play fair or play dead, it was a strange dream, two silhouettes embracing, red lights and black stripes, and the camera's recording, this is how it should feel, this is how it should feel

Wisdom Bride

why do you do what you do? who told you to be this way? what led you to live astray? who taught you to hurt this way? THIS IS NOT YOUR WAY, I'm watching you, I'm over you, I'm above you, what entered you and changed your mind? what got to you? You're so UNKIND, all I want to do is teach this love to you, give some goodness back, Wisdom Bride she calls to you, she's inside you, I'm watching you, I'm over you, I'm above you, I'm ABOVE (repeats), my stumbling fool, my precious jewel, Wisdom Bride, for you, Wisdom Bride for you, wisdom bride, wisdom bride, wisdom



Red Door

the seasonal twitch, the serious witch, the crone, the hag, the shrew, I don't care what's un-lady-like, back off fuck you, clear the space, make some room, psychic breakdown is coming through, my Red Door's calling, these lips are dry, my hands are shaking and I'm ready for a good time, desire is fire, anger the fuel, used constructively, both can be quite good, best to hide, duck or run, time for the Ice Queen to come undone, pick a side, stake a view if you care to watch this stone bitch brake and come unglued, my Red Door's calling, these lips are dry, my hands are shaking and I'm ready for a good time, I'm in the Red (Red Door calling) desire is fire, anger, the fuel, desire is change, anger is good



Vision of Home

beyond gray clouds I hide, into your dreams I spy, tearing through skies I dive, hearing your call I fall, if you summon me I will come, I will come straight to your heart, I will come right through the center of you, dark birds fly so high, target's in sight, this vision of home, this vision of home, come take my hand, won't you, I promise I won't hurt you, don't close your eyes, it's true, been here before and before and before with you, and all the while, my spirit was near, won't you send word and guide me back here, back to your arms, where I belong, been in mid-flight too long, as is above, so is below, just say the words and I'll be home, and I'll be home, won't you, guide me, back home, back home(repeats), home, home, home
