We are your friends



We are beautiful. Together we shine.
We are loud, we are music. We are dance, dance, all night.
We are permanence, like love, like hope, like time.
We are ephemeral, like wisps of hash smoke,
Exuding like visual poetry from your lips to mine.
We rise and we fall, to the moods of the skies,
To the drone of the planet, to the hum of the cosmos that never dies.

We live, to live hard
We choose it - living hard, over hardly living.
To live, is to keep moving,
We understand this truth.
And we pay homage to it in our dance moves.

We seek moments.
Moments of laughter, boisterous and great.
We take our laughter with a side of stomach ache.
We seek moments of ecstasy, piercing and soulful.
We feed off the lifeforce of numinous truths.
We seek moments of caring, compassion and tenderness.
We bask in the warmth, the buzz, the fuzziness.

And we seek moments of meaning.
Meaning so overwhelming, that words collapse before it.
Meaning so profound, that silence is its true language.
Meaning so meaningful, that there remains nothing to explain,
But simply behold, in totality, in our souls, serene.

We live to love, to be loved,
to make love and to take love.
We love to give, and give to love
And we have confirmed in each other, that there is love.
In one beautiful moment, that we felt simultaneously.
The moment that stretches throughout eternity.
And we now know that love is all, in all, for all.

We have rules, a few essentials.
No fighting. More dancing.
Soul singing. More loving.
Always remember to live deeply,
To live through me as I live through you.
Embraces, funny faces and shared spaces.
Never lose the chance to see a sunrise,
To gaze upon the abyss with its crimson traces.

Together we shall conquer all buzzkills,
We shall wipe away mind-ills.
We are getting ready to launch to the god-head of being
So we may look eternity in the eye, and redeem
What history was all about.
Why? Because we can, and we will.

A Dream About Death

Last night, I had a dream, in which death was not what it seems. I saw a world in which the deceased, instead of diminishing completely at death, appeared to remain in some form within this reality plane. They could be seen, as they had been until the moment of death itself. They could be spoken to and heard, even touched and held, as if they had never left. Yet, this state of post-death non-being, this abstracted state of in-between, lasted only some time, maybe a few days or a week at most. After which, the deceased slowly faded away, not to be seen, heard or touched again.  I received no indication, in my dream, as to the exact nature of what this phenomenon means. Was it that the deceased actually remained on earth, even in a physical form, for just a little longer? Or was it more likely that it was an edifice of their former being, created out of their memories that dwelled in the collective minds of those who knew them? Were these memories somehow ossified into existence, as ...

The Future of Leadership

Our shared disillusionment with the leadership class has been a persistent narrative within the zeitgeist for decades. The archetypical representation of a modern politician is commonly associated with a number of troubling traits - untrustworthy, selfish, greedy, power-hungry, corrupt, deceitful and more. Put simply, the  majority of people around the world do not trust their politicians . Meanwhile politics itself, in the words of George Orwell,  "is a mass of lies, evasions, folly, hatred and schizophrenia". As such, we have come to accept the sad truth that all our leaders come with a price tag, for those who can afford it. And that, in the big picture, you and I are left not only powerless, but also utterly hopeless.  Meanwhile, even our sense of hopelessness is not spared from manipulation either. The rise of the "right wing bros club" (the likes of Trump, Bolsonaro, Modi among others) was fueled by this very same hopelessness and mistrust of the political eli...
