Music Box

Life is but a music box
What is it that will unlock?
Keep on looking for the key
It's so dark I cannot see
Searching for the light and air
Certainly don't have it there 
Bloom where you are planted, sure
What of soil that can't nurture?
They blocked rays with parasols
No not me, I want it all
El condor pasa, wave to it
To the sky these eyes do lift
Fledgling flying toward the sun
Baby I was Born to Run

Last Life Here

I am so concerned 'cause I
Will not redo junior high
Can't convey how bad it sucked
There's no way in fucking fuck
I will not be squashed again
Spend a life away hidden
Sun square my ascendant, eh?
Still recovering to this day
Praying that it turns around
Trying to reach higher ground
Dancing in my living room 
To empowering Zeppelin tunes
Should I seek community?
I am a loner, Dottie
I have got to do what's right
Wake each day and fight the fight
Uncover and confront each fear
'Cause this is def my last life here

Two of Hearts

Disney princess energy
Music dancer synergy 
Some enchanted fairytale 
Maui with Moana sails
They cut off Rapunzel's hair
Still it didn't keep her there
Eventually Aurora woke 
To her prince Ariel spoke 
Poison didn't stop Snow White
Her partner came and made it right
Spinning arrow led to John
Pocahontas can't go wrong
Nino followed Amelie 
Ohana it means family 
These girls have power within
But there's a yang to every yin

Midheaven

Angels and obsidian 
Divinity and protection 
Life path four with your seven
Virgo on my midheaven
Can I offer you a deal?
This is something that will heal
I can play the roll of doll
Mannequin alive in mall
Muse to your Pygmalion
Camouflaged chameleon 
Beautiful but wielding power
Sugar can be sweet or sour
Both stoic and temperamental 
Symbiotic, beneficial

Fire Butterfly

Butterfly with fire wings
Warrior that's nurturing 
Gentle like a woodland deer
Venus is exalted here
Lovely like a painted fern
Lucky but it's all been earned
Plucking beauty from the clouds
Sharing with adoring crowds
Offering Earth medicine
But with heart is reticent 
Material concerns are real
They will follow what we feel

Fire Water Burn

The Moon and Planet Venus
These asteroids between us
The Sun and Planet Mars
The changing of the guards 
If Jupiter expands
And Gods of War demand
I call on Mercury
Where we can both receive 
Communicate with words
Through poems, and songs, and birds
Blown closer by monsoon
Swim towards you on Neptune 
Accept a ride from Saturn
And kiss goodbye old patterns 
Let Pluto reinvent us
And meet up on Uranus

With You

Water moves rock slowly
Needn't always break it boldly 
Kali works in deconstruction 
Volcanoes speak through their eruptions
Ocean tides move by our moon
End the end, Sam is with Joon
Te of Piglet, Tao of Pooh
I know I will be with you
(Because we have things to do)

Parts of a Whole

Sky full of birds
Millions of words
Infinite methods with which to be heard
Pen to a paper
Water to vapor
Creative Director of Sterling Don Draper
Leis made of flowers
Minutes in hours
Major League Baseball and Kenny Powers
Ballet and tulle
Rockets and fuel
Snoopy's the Masked Marvel and he's Joe Cool
Bridges with tolls
Rhythms that lull
These are the parts of the things that are whole

Acoustic and Electrical

Acoustic and electrical 
Romantic and sexual
Spelunker and skydiver
Kylo Ren and Skywalker
If we combine all shades of light
A rainbow is created, right?
Nothing here to dodge or fear
Just a seeker and his seer

Six of Cups

My Six of Cups
I miss you much
My childhood friend
My past life twin
My fellow crystal alien
Our treehouse dreams
On playground swings
And dangling from the monkey rings
The ferris wheel
I'll meet you there
I'll find you always anywhere
Amusement park
Kiss in the dark
Inspired to
Required to do
Whatever that will lead to you

A Thousand Leaves

They only took from me
I never did receive 
All I have done is grieve 
And now I overreach 
For wanting to believe 
That they'll see what I see
I watch a thousand leaves
Detach and drift from trees
If they can turn and fall
Then grow back after all
I'll too change and stand tall
