Open Your Mind Baby Cuz The Hours Getting Late

Open Your Mind Baby Cuz The Hours Getting Late


***


Oh, you think you're my friend

If I trust you

You'll be my end

Your nature seems to be

Betrayal


Whenever 

I open up my heart

You run away

Leaving me

Broken


With the wind 

You sway sway sway 

I'm saddened 

By friendship

So fickle 

Barren

Cold

Devoid of warmth

Sexually you devour

Your lovers

I will not be one 


Do you think

I care of your beauty

Which fades

Your carnal desire

Which consumes

Will not be my

Fate


Your friendship

Not unconditional 

When you need you come 

When I need you go

Like dark winds on the horizon

You blow, blow, blow


I'm happy having had friends

Who betray

Now I recognize my true friends 

Who will always stay


Your minds 

A steel trap

Always shut

Keep on hurting those

Who love you

Painful to see

Your suffering

How My 

Heart 

Breaks 

Loving

You

Time to

Open Up Your 

Mind baby

Cuz the hour is getting late….

And who or what has been doing this searching and looking anyhow, like a gerbil spinning on a wheel? Those Buddhists,  I tell you, they appear so peaceful  (sometimes ) but are secretly a radical group of self deniers, how wonderfully subversive.  Maybe I have been a Buddhist all along and just realized it. But then I look for the Buddhist and Bam!  Same problem, there's nothing there. I must confess enjoying my nonexistent self today, uh oh, that could mean trouble. Now that I have realized my life is just a dream am wondering what comes next, or if there is a "next." Maybe I will keep looking a little more to be sure no self is to be found. The way things are going I might end up a Buddhist. Now not only can I not find myself, I can't find anyone else either.  I close ...

Springs Healing *** I’m down and I’m low You won’t let me know What you’re really feeling I opened up my heart As I did from the start Now I think you’re leaving You say it’s not the end That I am your true friend Yet I know your lying So why don’t you just go Before the winter snow I can taste this dying I don’t want your blood Or the coming flood Of the tears you’re crying Because only in our end Will our hearts mend And wake up in springs healing *** David Penn Arndt 2022 *** Artwork Cynthia Re Robbins

Lead me gently to your enchanted lands

Lead me gently to your enchanted lands 🕊️ Oh in our dreams how we hold each other close I whisper in your ear of all the women in the world It's you I love most. A woman like you I believe it not possible, It could not be, but then I found myself drowning, so joyfully, blissfully within your inner seas I fell upon my knees It's you babe In all in every way I wish to please My love's real baby It's not something That will vanish Disappear Leave Blowing out Space and time Loves pure Holding each other Verse meter rhyme Would you take my hand Lead me to your me Enchanted Promised Land Because then my dear How vast My love For you abides You would fully Completely Understand 🕊️ David Arndt  Sirens Of Titan  Down on the Horizon  Line (c) 2022 🌹 Gustav Klimt
