Muddy Waters

I recall a story where one of my heroes Joe David was carving a mask on a ferry and someone took time to tell him if he cleaned up his mask he would offer him $50. Or something of that amount. The insult is something that made him one if not the best of our people, well let’s be honest yes.

I post this because we need to gather in time of rememberance and do such things more often. My hands up to my current kiya, when she said we can’t be all same direction. As hard as that is to grasp, I needed time to bring this idea.

I rode the ferry and a young boy was looking for a place to throw away a bent up piece of mid weight card stock.

a model of an idea

I wish I could say I saw a whale fin appear and it drove me to the edge of the deck and know it was a moment where I was moved so much I needed paper. It was not that, it was a place that found me with time and patience. For family that take trips to be on those vessels, in my head I was reminded of a story from my last mentor in the water that put kept his door open.

Reminded how mariners regarded anything in the sea as monsters in that voyage. Before a machine could sweep up everything and discard the world.

With my love I took a chance to purchase a sea urchin to understand what it is to break apart something, because all the passerby look at them like smelt or hooligan.

it brought me back to a place of an idea of time, to truly understand why we pray for our food.

The house of the bridge

I do all I can to be acceleration of my heart within design of what is uncontainable. I go as far as my eyes can see endurance. Heroes of my generation. The day I landed in a place, the void sank within my heart a loss. To be alongside few of us who paint and put works into hands. I met a man toshiro when I need that endurance.

I endure a world without Loren now, and swallow the moon with any time it comes out.

Ironman, Black Sabbath

and Run to your mama now, by Goat.

as long as breath within me, I protect the dark side of the moon. I was born by the river contained that made it brown because a levee kept it in a shape where glacier fed waters run as they do but the salmon still find a way to the water.


setting sun

this lean I go for you

hutch at my heart

my trembling being the water of sheltie you took me into

no seagle flies over head the dark of want I feel place want to be your arms and hands within my hands

as cold as the water would be I go to be stranger on that dock and look at the moon. Drown myself in a pool eternal. A hope from a dock you would come back to see me like a wave and be naked and hold onto the under world of planks our elders lade hard work for.

fireworks go and I go into water for long to sit at the sunset of beach to remember the place we were.

Burn the Cure

2049 world of want

nothing artificial. A nightmare that took place over my heart I will have no regret of. The first kiss of my love a hand I placed at her back I want to die at times but with vision I found myself an emblem in my hand.

we protect a mountain and that is all that matters. The small nuance of feeling the the extension of elders that protect me, where one takes time and a deep wound to kneel and pray for the fallen in the rain. 10,000 years in my hands.

A high elevation of place sheltered by the grown.a war over mountains name the time I was a boy and in my time

a sharpening bone.

she is a place if was brought to a great climb where I would look at her as a learner. A patch of woods like my uncle Dxwsqius would defend with his time. I know this the same.

I painted my eyes to remember the known at the place defender

and seeing the call of all the animals that know my name, I held fear of of the mountain lion all that time to get back to river.

I placed back a bone that in my youth I didn’t understand. But in time only few of us of known can understand known.

when my uncle was gone the magic got bigger and it felt me a heart of known. but when the uncle of my other side came.

all the worth I absorbed I had to give back and be stung by a ratfish and endure the pain where I gave up my phone.

and be witness of the half moon.

there is no pretending. In world gif you are called to be understand the exchange.

an exchange of my rive in woven woes, the bragging you all had of slavery, you wear now at a dark side of moon. the piercing of myself from sun dance a protection.



looking forward back

Taken

I want love as much as the next but Hex is cursor like a code within song that I love.

we have face and shape, but the thing we are, even if we were thinking at place of glass. my heart wants to believe in such things. My heart taken a ride times over if I were made.


the heart of place that takes me is only

self keeper of dream

my man will do

take me thru broken dream, black dog.

I begging a place of want and no waqater at end. I know this story by extension of my roots.

Person I am man not by blood but every pulse of the black dog, I know in his passing, a protector.

if blood is lost within my bones the endurance to be the protector.


Thrower

All in my place of being. A feeling for dream and place.

I one one of few who can say I am no visitor of the field I go to hear the crowds, I believe in the long for every want of men on the field to do their best. At a dug out place of my youth, moments like Freddie I found myself late.

A battle of endurance by battle of long throws, only time can be taken by distance of it’s thrower.

A place I can take moment to look overhead to know to birds overhead. Places no one can take but time. I can let go this black dog idea of defender and know bird fly and hand off story.

I saw a boy given a ball with hi five and moment and that can be enough.

One can not win over and over, without no such journey there would be no place for guardians, sweepers or defenders.

Someday Ohtani may play for us but in the meantime, remember Ichiro travelled a long distance to be inspiration. To remember the Kingdom and walking that place.

I had envy for my mentor to design something once but now understand I’m part of that place I walk thru with you by endless hours of design that keep us together.

fine lines

three broken bats, a place only we know. From time together.



I place I can let Go

Until I had seen on screen the imagination of dream that was captured by the world of Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, I felt grips within my seat were song and story were wonder.

It travelled a distance within my mind to long for dreams I could be that, touching rooftops for a chase as the moon is bright and being.

An angel came back to me to give me this song from true prayer at the white river.

to battle endurance takes place where you are earned by the work you make. A battle of endurance is to remember within a dog paddle for survival.

I made the swim of promise and went into a journey to learn that place a black dog can paddle. In the woes of my human ears, fast as you can from Fionna were there. To be this the last challenge of hurt in my heart, It is to remember old ways of enduring from a physical property that people of visit can not and may never understand.

When Taqsablu told me her story it was hers.

I went the day to be there in snow and remember to this day I had no direction but still, wanting to honor the battle of endurance of language. It was not meant for me to be there that day. The time I had with her at side with my grandmother I can now let go of.

Going up to an isolation and take a day of resolve, to see the water that moves us all and put your hand in it. Without teachings of Tsa-qwa-supp and Dxwsqius I would have not the value or endurance to climb.

My uncle made fun of movies where it is dramatized to have a blade in mouth. Yet in desperate times I would imagine it was a need that looked good on film.

My father survived cancer and he raised me, and for trade of challenge I go this place.

I still recall a day a man walked into the store I was just 17 and he gave me conversation. He talked about the days baseball leagues were separated and how they played at Muckleshoot.

I told him I was Puyallup and my family. That week I was scammed by a man to tint my windows and was scraping by. I didn’t say much back to him but he said to me, it looks like you are working hard. He gave me a hundred dollar bill. It was all I needed to get me thru that week.

from that place of swim I can bring back a memory in heart of mentoring, no paint on my face only endurance.

the blade within my hand is placed, a grip I can not let go of.

A surging heart, my huč is blade in my mouth still. A time I challenged my being and self worth looking over deep water, something drew me back to be this place and call.

When the world was fearful of Ghost dance movement that is something I don’t understand or research. In search of being, one of mind takes on enduring ceremony by value of a place few will ever know or understand.

The arms I’ve grown into and places I go. Remembrance of places I already know and defend.

Kamaitachi.

Only by Going Distance

It’s a challenge to pick up a path. I was fortunate to be called to mine early and have good mentors. Even so it was filled with challenge from the land that I was tasked to bring out old connections that were once outlawed.

Time we were called wild and needed taming. There are times we are all wild at time we are by nature we are reminded to be humble deep in the forest. That has been a value of our people of Puget Sound for many generations and continues to be so.

I mounted a panel in memory of a man who asked me to make the work 15yrs prior. He passed before the work was done but it is done and I can let rest the back of my mind I was holding for him for that time I held place. That place he believed in that I was never good at designing I felt hit like a Mack truck to challenge my design to make something I was not good at.

I met a man after it was up on the wall and in his misunderstanding he thought it took me over a decade to make. He laughed at me next to my brother and I let him tell his story. I held my patience and let him know, from the man I made this work for, he would take the time to listen even if I have a place to be, because that was what the work was about.

The room the Raven is in is for cigar smokers and I am happy to know it is a connection to something meaningful. I’d left behind some installation gear and went back to get it. Welcome by open arms to that room I didn’t understand as private.

I was given a cigar and a hug and it gave me a moment to embrace the idea holding on to such things can make a difference.

Raven 2023

I can’t lie that, in some way I felt like the young Bruce Wayne of Nolans batman series that will only make sense to the known.

I have no song for this work association of memory of someone I can’t speak for.


Knight watch

for enduring night watch

Condensed


For my brother as keeper of me. The arms we work and hours put it in. We are forged into fires that never go out. A story is made over time and I hold onto those things from many aspects.

Days of making steel, digging up earth and turning what auntie Karen told me how to turn light into the colors. It was not a life of promise and wealth and it may not be the day forward but I know by taking that time.

warm of time

I can never go back to heal or mend wounds of place I had to do with

in this shadow of a black dog that keep endurance. I’m placed as man toyed with treasure and I work my way out.

yellow is a surging heart granted back to you from the eyes of A peach in an isle that holds humility.

we embrace time of what we have and not what we don’t. I want to dance a song a day my niece was so much a place we had a place she called me Sa’an.

For you Big big a this design in hopes you can come back to ground. No Distance can take away the place you search and from endurance a place is worn and granted.

An arrow drawn back

I have not place in this game. my nephew gone many heroes before us. and yet places we can have nuance and identity.

Slapping tails of the night. To be deemed by a King and smile where no one can witness me but a mountain and a full moon.

From a black world I keep tears in my eyes,

push myself forward and remain within the iron that I swallow from Tsa to be Qwa

Iron earned by time have urge and I put my head down into that place of earn.

hammered down and made a knife with purpose. You can seat in your place division and trust this song came back to

be reveal.

Tension of resolve.

the place

I can have not words for the man who changed my life, I can say hep kept me a place of patience when I felt panic. Put his hand on my shoulder and gave me patience to put my knife and adze into wood and make something of my life.

This long extensnion of heart. my world nothing without foundation a place I am taken onto journey.

I may never make a box or canoe but I can be part of a journey I am taken to. Where I may have been a person that would not have respect.

From this road I was granted a path that carved out a place of destiny.

Carving as a boy, transformed by a place where I can fall asleep on my hand. Be the place where a figure of the dawn is a thing I need to know.

it is many things and uncontainable but from the place I am

this moment a divider like a lane of stripe that can go back to my mentors.

like song of heroes of woe my brother a place of travel and some bound from time. We are on a journey where I am know a distance of language and seated as a station

From the black dogs I spent a year with in Chehalis, the place I had a fear of enduring the lamp wray and be bitten.

Nothing takes place over a time I was changed by a time Lane made me a brew of coffee and I need to be sober.

A Boy with ambition, no place can take away the place I feel those steps of light break that I find myself. A wind that runs thru hair that Uncle George was young. A serpent is an arm that ties onto my arm. From the place you are, Pookmis and Hikwaa this loss of Ben

An Iron that goes into the water like days of Skyfall. Take the days before you and know the ancestry you are let go and in the wolf of heart I am

my head down.

From endurance of my relatives and skin I was born into and boundary. The paint and place we have together is boundless.

A line the is fine and a place that cannot be found.

I am taught by Tsa

and held in place a container to give back knowledge of work. The day arrived I was driving back from the south. To see the first time a full moon and receive a call on the road from my auntie.

Call my mother to tell her my iron of world is taken by this place unchallenged and protected.

In place we have this in many forms. and it is held up by many songs.




No entry a guard she is

this place I was taken into a room by random, place I was granted pass to be in private room where elites are.

She walked to the bar to get us a drink and looked back at me because she said I was her Asian Leo and mix and I wanted to pretend I was half as cool. As she comes back and forth to me to know a hand only I want her to hold.

If she slides up next to me in a crowded room. She had nothing to say beyond the sun and heartbeat within me to see the sun come up and realize we are at a different time table.

To me I met my destiny with a world in my hands if I can go this far. A Fox and a Wolf in a place where a sun can rise and one can set and I can hold that hand of immigration in me.

The fire that kept me an ember, reliance on the fallen.


To be hapa and know we are moved by looks over seat in position where I can look back and she slides her sandal over ‘by accident’ and I can hold it for a stretch of 20 seconds.

nothing about feet or fetish.

this place between a work I cannot make only thru words of want. I hold the the card from the place we are flight and keep it as a token. I push back her slide with my headphones on.

Whatever time it takes to arrive, I’m that passenger two rows you pushed ahead.

Feeling the feeling you have and a place you wanted to be in the sky.

Grounded I can let go of the place we went together without a kiss and smile on my face. Where I was and you arrival before we took flight.

My love of journey to Kyoto forward and back.

Forever a long want I lean over my shoulder where I want passage to be in a place

where we can see the mountains that look the same.

The Dream has ended and flight

I’m owned at 2024

Only a place of a new border and bound has no place.

A journey of my destination wear I learn a long for want we can be uncountable. Like “Her” she is arrival and place where I feel safe and me her.

the place she touches my heart and my hopes where I can hope I’m vibration.

This song found my heart thru vibrations of learning nuance and efforts where you travel many times over and break many hearts to be who you are.

A tattoo house here was once called slave to the needle and to me I was told I could be a millionaire if we lived in that place.

Where Vipers are a cocktail and challenge that if would take only if you allowed or dared me to.

if nothing else you know as Koji, I belong to the Yama. My heart a driver where I accept my flights. maybe again a place we go to the fox house where my black kimono was made

you will hold my hand.

worn for the ready Omega and Alpha.




Long for want

A broken heart and need to resolve has nothing to to with breaking another heart.

head above waver

my sense of desperation is like a water

I can feel it in my bones where someone needs something they don’t know they have knot earned. Only my time can place me where I can give back to my auntie Judy and the moon under the mountain a resolve. A playlist of making when I can feel loved and be a place forever.

Not because we have lost things but the gain of endurance.

I took humility to carve a figure that had nothing to do with her, Ramona Bennett, my Grandmother but place that a needed to stand in place a thing that will someday fall, if not cared for. It was placed where a dance is held together from a time few will understand.

There is great sacrifice in what we do as artist to attempt many times over to make best what we can for of memory.

As I feel at times I reach my end. I surge of inspiration as we all do that is a place that can feel uncontaable.

We all go thru different journey but that said. I can share this now that it’s been many years looking back. This power figure from a cousin he never explained to me.

An owl can take you, no fear acceptance and like the way Black Panther I’d want an imagination. We can’t escape the place we call regalia. There is in our ways a cloth that wants to wear your being.

The way I can long for want of someone I imagine. only in right place of mind can I be there.

it is nothing if you are not that place.

Song I long for

Long for you

a want I can close my eyes and see how much you want me as mutual

standing

I was granted a vision of a wolf with one foot in glass, absent, absinthe and gone.

cliche and click, we are worn and windfall wind that takes down the known. to A place I want to find a ground, A place I can not let go this place, a locked door. A whaler that is within you is kept silent even if not known by action, you make and change this world from travel of who you are.

Are reluctant leader and blood in your teeth you’ve kept within you great circles of knowing within.

I can go not place you go but I can admire it as a distant traveller to admire a runner ahead protection for spirit the place you are. You not my relative but I know the heart and related to all places you go.

Breaker of many hearts siege and to some called Sicario.

Joe David my heart I am wounded by lost place of a Lane I can drive no place with my vehicle and I feel blind without his math.

wolf

Keeper in the dream

A long for want and place we chase forever, I made this design from an inspiration from you painting a design of Big D

the arm of my travels and arrows that go thru me, I try to imagine all you’ve laid out before me and from this place I’m told by Holm to say this.

many of us pass and as I went to hike and burn the book of my sketches I was told to write this for the wolf that keeps his head above water. Silent and strong.

I write this a honor for knowing who you are before you are gone from a promise.

to give you a song that keeps you going from your brother that kept me sleepless and owned by a place only the known can understand.

Where a moon is a place in the day only if you take yourself long enough to go there.

Daylight in the camps and hoot owl hours

this place has name.

Unto the renounced

This day would be my nephews birthday.

Alan Arken passed and someway it is fitting. From conversation with many musicians over time talking about character actors and now the place where John Mulaney asked David Byrne to write a song for his special.

I reflect on old days I tried to impress my mentors in night to have a want for song not unlike Taqsablu. A comedians life is one that took me years to understand a place of darkness.

the songs that shaped my being as a boy came back up thru the visionary of Batman realized by Forks.

A place I had been called a black dog once for color of my skin. Yet an economy made by a world thru fantasy. I met a man outside that place I was told I cannot be and he gave me a block of alder. I model of young Doctor I made a series of small wolves I carved on the beach.

A place for me to earn respect like fire lanterns. Forever is a long for want.

Kinane might be able to dig this deep with Shane

A food for thought how circle the wagons go around us and places you go, We know how you got here. Not fault of your landing but Charlie Hill is a leg of my being that will always give me ground.

There are those of us who retain spirituality and contain a place you can not touch. A distance not travelled but stationary and protector of the trees. You were granted a window into world when Dead man was made here and being where I am this place you would not want to know.

Kinane I lived not far from you and I’d met Cornell as a boy so keep your way forward. I’m deeply proud of the voice you have with honesty. A drive of hearing bad dates mine a long for one of the last shows Carlin gave in Tacoma and his mic was cutting out and it was painful to watch my hero.

this is why this song of Pearl Jam comes back to me

Half way I die inside.

Our ways called all but snakes and clowns.

At the end of the day we lift one another up. Kinane you’ve helped a lot of people and myself included from a heart of memory of of Charlie Hill and Richard Pryor.You keep a smile on a face.

from this place I’m allowed to be a bigger story

the arrival

the time you came here was the year the blood moon showed for five times. The place you needed to be.

The river that runs Through Jack Sparrow

It hurts to be outside the hall, uninvited.

Knowing a party is held where people are dancing and engaging a place you don’t have invitation where you’d hoped you wanted so. Walk the beach or the streets to kick some rocks.

Or put your worth into weaving or writing.

The swelling of a heart that is in you is unconventional and uncontainable. Some of the greatest work I did from my point of view came from those times of long, where my friends were off having fun and I was tasked to do what I do.

I don’t expand because, well, my mentors and I have what we have and it’s a place only we can understand. In travels even on plane to do work, I rely on the notion of making a phone call to Greg Colfax that changed my life.

welcome figure by Greg Colfax, Olympia, WA

Nuance is a place I’ve valued from this mentorship for many years.

From my heart to my master this is handed over from my hand of distance only place we can understand. Bunny kept the work alive yes?

under the wing

world of imagination you gifted me. a white rabbit. Purpose and protection. Gifting Thorns around me to learn a wealth of knowledge I want you to know is not forgotten.

Iron in my throat driving to be a driver to earn my place in the world and make you understand we are doing all we can not what we cannot.

A narrow escape I’ve made, and a place of debt I wouldn’t trade for the world. If I had pursued music I would have been washed up and acting the same.

In this journey I can observe and keep young doctor work alive and know the paddle I have is one only I own and no award will be above this.


Widows peak

The vampire my cousin made sense of a place where I held in curl of the sweat my uncle was my seat.

Today a marker of the last of the house of those days.

Sitting at the church in loss of the widow peak of my uncle thinking of him a vampire recognized by one of my distant blood. Keys strike so loud witthin sound like place you as foreign land will know.

Seeing twins forward I imagined in my heart I see a new world from Whitebird from this song I kept from the time Uncle Junior gave me.

My place of being unearth contained cage.

this design made flat so others can make it bigger and known.

Testament I am here to keep these things in place.

Driver and Passenger

Passion

I can say I haven’t read much of Hemingway

Over time I’ve learned from my heart broken and myself a breaker the long never dies

A place we are taken to no matter what mountain one climbs or one dives into an ocean

the heart within you siege for long and we do what we do in different ways to get there

If I go into the mountains to get a tree that was not something we had to do long ago but I do for memory of ancestry.

The journey and travel makes it worth every hour I don’t wake up to put on a face. I put on my shoes and gear up with gas in hopes I can make enough moneyand find my earnings we not for nothing

it takes travel and patience a desire like a fire that can not be put out to find a tree that has roots that gave itself up for me to make a story Sometime this journey is lonely but my father taught me this rule to be true if you go the distance love is where you find it.

No money or worry if you trust the place within you love is a heart that no one can take from you.

The notion of climbing a mountain you will find nothing but the top be the journey within and in the place one can feel earned with wealth like no other.

Making what I make has not trade value unless it is heard from my heart and truth no arrows can reach the name and I am just narrow escape of feelings There is no suit I can wear or word I can say that makes the want that is a draw

The gamble played is for us to know worn within our places the long wishing will find you and it will be there like nothing before nameless and it will grip you and from there a new journey will begin.

Work of the Nights watch

from the mountain I write these words.

No mountain one can climb or imitate a place where the need for heart finds it’s place. In that place is a heart heart and bearer of belong.

buttons on my collar

Only a man with great sense of mind would know how to resolve

a tension and be place of mind at the time of need a dog on a bed and time a place, placed between a heart broken. It comes back and heart felt, A short moment when there is a need.

Like Shadow of doubt, a world is unfold by gesture where a small being can change the world and I am no where in that place that I look to some of the small dogs as much as those who intinidate me. Moved by the place where I’m not certaain but placed as human being.

Uncertain any time I am going to put my place of the pencil of my hand, my cursor from a mouse and what I can say wondering if what I’m writing is right.

My heart I am still standing with a place where my father is alive and I am able to learn from what he was a place to teach me from his choice of movies and what moves him.

An envy I had for men who take the field where I can’t run from injury all my life when I was just young. It burns me thru to know all I can do is lift things and if I can do that.

I keep it in me to keep that ground and if a cable breaks if I tested myself, if a log is pulled up it is guarded and if I come up from there with all my fingers.

My uncles would be happy I would like to think.

At the end of the day my paintings and prints are on my fathers wall and I am making work to represent the community I am born into.

This life is bigger from his extension and that cable may break but I put myself back together in time. I’ve slept in the woods to get a log when my dad was out on the road going to play ball and feel alive.

A time came when I felt known by our people and driving my grandmother home when the sun was coming up, She said something about Elvis and I told her it wasnt that and I cant for the life of me dig it out of me.

We argued for 10 minutes maybe but when we got to Boeing field we would talk again.

Hello, World!

my father is the mad he is and his challenges have passed onto me but make me bigger for all this time is worth, I am still in rememberance of that song I was silent with my grandmother on the radio and it gave me great humility.

I’m no Indian in a cubard, I”m a real man in time and from the heart of Charlie Hill, we are ongoing and invisitble at times but doing day to day appreciation.

Memory

We have no choosing of where we are born and families we come into. I learn more and more each day about the birth of the Kinks and the birth of R&B. An appreciation for song came from my great grandmother, an undeniable force of art I am told.

As a child I went to my grandparents basement to play piano and many years later learn how off key it was and a steel string guitar when others were playing sports. I tried to make sense of the interpretation of notes of Indian songs she left for me.

Over a Looooooooong reach. Teaching myself key by name and number of hand, the woman of church told me I was learning by memory and not reading.

I recall how much envy I had for my uncle and how shy he was and powerful. He didn’t say much and doesn’t to this day. At placement I had my angst in youth he allowed me to vent the person I was supposed to grow into.

When carving the figure of our ancestry there were few who came and he was persistent and it was a situation where it was an open house gated. He came with Mike Sterud. They would sit with me and just let me know I wasn’t alone and there we were three men, one carving and I loved it.

Embracing the nature of land we come from. With no politics or division. I just let the playlist go and as I ran my skew anytime they came around I felt protection. Most of the sound came from was birds in distance and I was able to feel not alone.

Only until Redbone came one did I see them groove. I felt so alive at the sun going down, from the corner of my eye they may have even moved their arms a little.

Half way thru a fence was built and people ran cable that divided. A group of men were peaceful at the initial intro and said what they were doing work to run lines and we just passed it off.

Uncle went away and as they were friendly at first, the leader came back not knowing that Mike was in the small shop portion of the property.

The leader came back in some way different that was weird to me asking with his crew if I was a REAL Indian. As in questioning who I was even thought an hour before, he was peaceful alone. My best guess is he shared to his crew his admiration and they changed his mind and he came back to me confrontational.

“Are you a real Indian”

“what” I replied as he felt assured with his crew and I thought to myself what is this about? Are they letting me know they don’t want Native art of culture here. In focus I thought to myself what can I do here because I’m just an artist and these are five men and this wasn’t the first time I was in this place.

I thank god for how stuck the door was jammed at that place.

My iPod had shuffle on and I downloaded some old things from my Uncle Buzz that I wasn’t familiar with and, hand to Star Lord

as I leaned off the stand in my attempt to feel bigger and say what I have to defend.

Mike kicked the door open and it felt like the moment the Nerds were defended by the black house.

“what’s going on here”? uncle Mike was just mad at the door jam but these white boys that had no idea a divine intervention took place. Because at that moment I wrote it on the pole when they ran away maybe thinking there were more Indians that would come out of that door.

from act of demonstratiion, silent mostly but guardians of the keep and protectors of the cedar. In my heart, I’m guarded by time and combination there of I can’t make up.

this light is my heart in darkness to pick me up. I love you beyond the stars.

credit known but not my own.

With the cedar tree I leaned on, what I learnt from Greg Colfax this code is woven into me. Where people cannot speak or write lines I devote myself to this. A promise to Holm and duty to those who gave themselves a world bigger.

It is a place I can’t control but was a thing I was told that I made shapes of.

Love from roots, protection from the ground up.

weary in the wings

Remember this story I was protected by a black dog to bring this to you. You are that need at time of need. From that place you can fly higher than you will ever know, This came from a dream only I know From P and T.

Going the distance to burn a book and accept the work I do is good enough. Earned a place few will ever understand.

for the followers of this work, understand an aim to fly we can be ground or flight in mind. Just hold that vision of who you are.
