Labyrinth - Above, Below

With silken hands placed upon the lungs of the Earth

I scale the labyrinth

Inhale

And everything stops

Exhale

And I feel the wind beat down upon my face

(Upon my face)

The sunset flares as the wind tears

Through the amber blades with pace

I reach up, hold hands with the energy

All fear collapses as I dance with ecstasy

Dragging myself up through the branches of life

The evening breeze soothes my frail mind

The setting sun breathes through the bitten leaves

Enticing our hearts toward the unseen

Ascend towards the cracking sky

The subtle joys of climbing high

Directional limbs and vectors within

The heart of the elm beats with me, synchronously

It’s so easy to get lost

With so many paths to wander across

But if we close our eyes and feel the gravity

Put our faith in intuition

We’ll breach the canopy

Om Kham Brahma

Om Kham Brahma

Breach the canopy

(Atoms burn within the melting sap

Elucidating wisdom of where not to grasp)

Atoms burn within the melting sap

Elucidating wisdom of where not to grasp

As Gaia bathes me in her primordial state

I feel the roots below shift tectonic plates

Atomic conflagration pries open the clouds

Gliding towards the crown

I breach the leaves and their lotus flowers

I peer out upon the Earth

At the beauty from my eternal perch

Ascend towards the cracking sky

The subtle joy of climbing high

Directional limbs and vectors within

The heart of the elm beats with me, synchronously

This is everything and anything

An encounter with the astral glow

The infant mind materialised

No fear, no hate, no woe
