Call Me TrimTab
hydra-headed thoughts
are making my eyes cross
all these spheres · hypothetical
[digital]
geodesic domes
resembling chromosomes
i moved into
a dymaxion
[dwelling machine]
and we keep inventing jobs
[and we keep on righting wrongs]
see us turning into stones
[now they’re all gone the do’s and don’ts]
REF
not today not today not today
how i love to put it off
how i love to be taken care of
and weep
venture into polyphasic sleep
icosahedron
i don't need to rest
have to do my best
call me trimtab
i'm a man of the future
feed into my picture
all this time
to configurate
[draw figure 8s]
oh no storm is coming
you're only becoming
and we keep inventing jobs
[and we keep on righting wrongs]
see us turning into stones
[no one confronts the do’s and don’ts]
REF
and we keep inventing jobs
[and we keep on righting wrongs]
i can do it too, but..
not today not today not today
how i love to put it off
how i love to be taken care of
i'm set
if you could only take the first step
icosahedron
i don't need to rest
have to do my best
call me trimtab

DILLEMANNS’ CLARITY
one day i got this clip
it was from a friend of mine
his name is BB he's a writer
i met a painter who
was talking about art
a voice so confident and strong
from the heart
with the clarity of a man
who goes for experience
in its truest sense
you can't create the art sublime
in your spare time
we all have sparks
you compromise in life
but not in art
he said
[red boxing gloves
his punching bag hurts
his body firm
he's punching harder]
a part-time painter is the worst
the people who are partly anything
they are the worst kind
you have to try to be the whole
you have to sacrifice
but the biggest sacrifice is being half
his muscles are contracting
they emphasize everything
that he is saying
no philosophy
just his truth
[watch?v=hCeMgtoRago]
REF
we all have sparks
you compromise in life
but not in art
[so sublime]
in your spare time
we all have sparks
you compromise in life
but not in art
he said
[red boxing gloves
his punching bag hurts
his body firm
he's punching harder]
REF
being trendy is dying a little
you don't have to be hip
you just have to know poetry
anything that stands the turning of time
to create the art sublime
[it’s gonna take more of your time]
seeing modern art, of course as modern as possible
they don't want to seem like old farts
this is causing all
the people to walk past the trees
without seeing the art

AUTUMN STREAM
IN THE AUTUMN
WHERE THE PINK AND GREEN FLOW
SHOOTING ARROWS
WITH RAINBOWS
WE LEAVE · we leave THE TREES
[WE'RE WALKING ON HANDS AND FEET]
WE'RE WALKING ON CLOUDBERRIES
WE ARE STANDING IN A STREAM
[HAVEN'T SEEN WHAT YOU’V E SEEN]
I HAVEN'T BEEN WHERE YOU'VE BEEN
YOU TALK ABOUT TAKING THE PLUNGE
I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU MEAN
BETWEEN TWO ROCKS · I LUNGE
WE'VE BEEN OUT HERE ALL DAY
YOU SAY YOU'LL FOLLOW YOUR OWN WAY
IN JOY WE MANIFEST QUICKER
AND AS THIS REALM GROWS THICKER
BETWEEN REALITIES WE FLICKER
YOU ARE YOU AND I AM ME
WE ARE STANDING IN A STREAM
[TALKING ABOUT LIVING THE DREAM]
AS THE OLD IS RIPPING BY ITS SEAMS
AND HOW IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT PATH U TAKE
YOUR PREFERRED REALITY YOU ALWAYS WILL CREATE
IT ALWAYS TURNS OUT MUCH BETTER THAN YOU THOUGHT
WHEN LETTING GO OF STRAIN ·LETTING GO WHAT YOU OUGHT
WE ARE STANDING IN A STREAM
[AMID THE ELEMENTS WE GLEAM]
AMID A VISTA OF GREEN
AND THEN WE PLAY AROUND AND GENERATE A SPACE
BEYOND HYPNOSIS AND PROGRAMS THAT ARE RUNNING THE RACE
WE CREATE A BEING REFRACTED THROUGH RAIN
SUN ENLIGHTENED HEATHER ON A MOUNTAIN PLANE
WE ARE · AND IT'S BEAUTIFUL TO SEE
[HOW ALL THE ENERGIES ALIGN]
WHEN YOU SET THEM FREE
THEY FORM AND MANIFEST IN PHYSICALITY
[YOUR VERY ABSOLUTE HIGHEST PREFERRED REALITY]
YOU CAN ALWAYS CREATE
[IN A FANTASTIK FASHION]
A REFLECTION OF YOUR HIGHEST PASSION
WE ARE STANDING IN A STREAM
[AND NOTHING IS WHAT IT SEEMS]
I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU MEAN
AND THERE IS NOTHING THAT NEEDS TO BE ARRANGED
WE TALK ABOUT FLOW AND THE BEAUTY OF CHANGE

CHROMA KEY
it begins and it's ending with you
there's no one turning your page
there's only you turning all that rage on yourself
so what happens when you follow that whim
do you love her or him ?
love yourself or your kin ?
please over understand this
that this world is a looking glass
and it will never burst
unless you break it first
being is not is not
subject to time to time
[don’t forget]
there's no beginning
and there is no end
time is a construct
[it’s yours to bend]
there is no great library
of what you did done do
every moment and thing in here is nil
you’re meant to charge them
they reflect your will
this world is a looking glass
and it will never burst
you can't tell a reflection to change
you have to do it first
it is not what you experience
that will expand your range
[don’t forget]
it's how you react and perceive it
that'll make the change
[make for the deepest change]
so it comes back to me
reciprocality
[don’t forget]
every encounter
you've with ever dealt
has never ever happened
[has only been felt]
what beliefs am i projecting
they're bouncing off the glass
all the things that happen to me
· my potentials turned to mass
then never any thing was really about you
there's no one turning your page
there's only you turning all that rage on yourself
what happens when you follow that whim
do you love her or him ?
love yourself or your kin ?
please over understand this:
that this world is a looking glass
and it will never burst
you have to break it first
being is not
subject to time
[don’t forget]
that if you're waiting
waiting for the end
then that is your choice
[see you around the bend]
so it comes back to me
reciprocality
every encounter you with ever dealt
has never happened
[has only been felt]
what beliefs am i projecting
they're bouncing off the glass
all the things that happen to me
· my potentials turned to mass
and if you get some shit
then you can ask yourself
what is it that i hold as true
creating this situation

SYLPHS
HOLD MY BREATH
COUNT TO THREE
I'M AWAKE
OR SO IT SEEMS
THEY ARE COMPASS NEEDLES
POINTING AT YOUR HEART
YOU'VE GOT EVERYTHING
YOU NEED TO START
WALLOWING IN FOOTSTEPS
WHO DO YOU WANT TO BE ?
NO ONE KNOWS YOU MORE
THAN YOU KNOW THEE
REF
ALL YOUR DREAMS YOU HAVE TO LIVE THEM OUT
THEY WERE MADE FOR YOU TO LIVE THEM OUT
AND IF YOU DON'T
THEY'LL HOLD YOU BACK
THEY SEEM SO PERFECT
IN THE OUTER SPHERES
BUT IT’S BEST TO LIVE THEM HERE
[PERFECT IN THE OUTER SPHERES]
WAKE UP AND LIVE THEM HERE
YOU WANT TO KEEP A SAFE DISTANCE
TO WHAT YOU REALLY WANT
YOU CAN ALWAYS HIDE
FOREVER RUN
ACCUMULATING REASONS WHY
SAYING WELL I SORT OF TRIED
NOW THEY’RE FAINT
ONE OF MANY GAMES
THEY'RE ALL THE SAME
ALL YOUR DREAMS YOU HAVE TO LIVE THEM OUT
THEY WERE MADE FOR YOU TO LIVE THEM OUT
AND IF YOU DON'T
THEY'LL HOLD YOU BACK
EVEN A SLIGHT DREAM THAT YOU BRING TO EARTH
MORE THAN GREAT VISIONS WORTH
[SLIGHT DREAM THAT YOU BRING TO EARTH]
MORE THAN GREAT VISIONS
WORTH A LIFE
IN LA LA LAND
I LOVE WHAT I DO
HATE WHO I AM
DON'T BUG ME WHILE I’M DRIVING
NOW I CAN'T CHANGE BANES
ONE OF MANY GAMES
THEY'RE ALL THE SAME
ALL YOUR DREAMS YOU HAVE TO LIVE THEM OUT
THEY WERE MADE BY YOU SO LIVE THEM OUT
AND IF YOU DON'T
THEY'LL HOLD YOU BACK
THEY SEEM SO PERFECT
IN THE OUTER SPHERES
WHERE THEY’RE FAR AWAY FROM HERE
[PERFECT IN THE OUTER SPHERES]
BUT IT'S BEST TO LIVE THEM
[BEST TO LIVE THEM]
IT’S BEST TO LIVE THEM
HERE

[quincunx]
electronic beeps · the pulses and zings
all those gadgets · those things
no doubt · i would trade them all in
to
teleport and fly
but not this time
when someone comes on
like an icon
just tell them you're fine
take a deep breath
take one at a time
“bye”
there's no meaning
“why?”
we are all connected · connected as one
so say the scriptures · and so says my phone
[28.8k modems]
we laugh but we're not that modern
there's a reason why
old rules don't apply
[carry wood and chop water]
nothing is different
everything is the same
yet all has changed
everything that we create
reflects an innate
sense of how things could be
don't talk to me about left and right and wrong
i have to go
i've waited long
in line
now we all know how we can talk
to each other without words
no matter the space between us
“Hi"
do that and more if you like
but it's no goal
they're artifacts of being whole
communication sells
we're all connected
connected as one
so reads the qabbalah
and so reads my phone
[i am out of touch
give me buttons]
there's a reason why
you can try and try
[carry wood and chop water]
everything in perfect order
we're all connected · connected as one
so read the dead sea scrolls
and so reads my phone
[remember aeroplanes once were magic]
NOTHING IS DIFFERENT
EVERYTHING IS THE SAME
NOTHING IS NOTHING
EVERYTHING IS THE SAME

ALL THE LIGHT
ALL THE CHANCES
ALL THE SILENCE
ALL YOUR GOALS
ALL YOUR SECRETS
OUT IN THE OPEN
ALL THE PROBLEMS
THAT YOU SOLVED
ALL THE HEAT
AND THE COLD
ALL YOUR RALLIES
IN BACK ALLEYS
ALL THE WALKING
IN THE FALL
ALWAYS WANTING
TO MAKE THAT CALL
NOW WOULD YOU UP AND DISAPPEAR
OR WOULD YOU RATHER
STAY HERE
