They Come In The Night
Sometimes they come to visit us, those creatures of the night but they’re not fearsome creatures from whom we quake in fright, they’re merely from another place – our long-forgotten home. At times they like to visit when they get … Continue reading

Mulgum Creek
It’s taken so long for earth’s rhythm and song to resonate deep within my Souls Keep and waken my heart to Gaia’s true art so now I must run on this Journey begun so many years ago by Mulgum Creeks … Continue reading

Freedom
There’s freedom in the Spirit and freedom in the Soul; these are the very core of us – the parts we must make whole. A society that’s crippled no longer knows the way to realise a new Dawn leads to … Continue reading

My Desire
There’s things I see and simply feel “Who gives a shit, what’s the big deal.” But then I see the earth’s demise happening before very my eyes. It’s then my blood begins to boil; the serpent in me tightly coil. … Continue reading

Morning
I sit and watch the golden dawn as yet another day is born. A golden glow across the sky; a beauty for which I would die. But luckily there is no need as Sol performs his daily deed of warming … Continue reading

A Few Hundred Years
A few hundred years, so much is lost; our engines churn not counting the cost. A world we’ve fed to the factory’s greed; a truly atrocious spiritual deed. Nations and species, lands of power; in my mouth today the taste … Continue reading

Our Election (or The Death of Gaia – The Great Demise)
