MommaStar - where our bodies came from MommaStar - where we’re laid to rest MommaStar - maker of the cosmos MommaStar - puts us to the test MommaStar - womb of imagining MommaStar - room in the matrix MommaStar - ancient puzzle keeper MommaStar - misty dominatrix MommaStar - quantum goddess MommaStar - time beyond grave MommaStar - mother of dark matter MommaStar - life here to save MommaStar - celestial wonder MommaStar - earthly home MommaStar - element conjuring MommaStar - her worlds we roam

Pick pick pick at the pecking order Pick for nits and vulnerable points Pick a hole in this holy mountain Carve a cave through property rights Pyramids of power - down through the ages Bully boy armies and the glory of kings Mob boss dictators - drug lord overseers Pecking order politics is an ego-based thing Territorial conquests - economic prison Who is to blame for lack of vision? Fighting for freedom from gangster rule Erecting another hierarchy - the way of the fool Friends don’t eat friends - safe beyond primitive Personal peace - religion too limited Share the wealth - build a vision Where we are equal - past division Seed the hive - full system upgrade Serve up something beyond standard fair Celebrate spirits of creative innovation Artful science done with a flair Gathering together unique combinations Turning and twisting strands in the web Snapping our puzzle pieces back together Putting the old ways swiftly to bed Riding the JAM to the next higher level Surfing waves as they rise near the shore Magick mutations of a sacred nature Kind folk together - family at core We know the feeling when love is the answer The question is not what the ego can gain Somewhere beyond the fences between us We take down the walls of fear and pain

Sum Bug 06:00
Caught up and trapped by setting and routine, molded by place and culture. How is your spore drive functioning? Our brains are quantum computers capable of accessing (through resonance) all data everywhere, more efficiently and faster than any AI. We need bio-suit operations education.

"the whole is greater than the sum of its parts” Bio-union - climax goal primary instinct - cannot control Gender arcs - between poles mating matchups - polycules Power tricks - kinks we crave follow us - to the grave Must avoid - STDs broken hearts - drama scenes Take a step - beyond the norm Forge a path - through the storm Two in one - androgyny Middle pillar - on the tree Free at last - unshackled from Strange desires - and where they come Sweet surrender - to the flow Soften edges - become the glow Forward to the future - adapting as we go Life is for the living - moving with the flow Elemental adjustments - looping all around Sustainable reality - bringing dreams to ground What goes around - comes back to you It all comes down - to what we do What goes out - must come in Life’s a cycle - wholly kin Competition - what a drag Divide and conquer - makes me gag Cooperation - peace of soul Work together - that’s the goal Solar beams - streaming down Free light fuel - sky to ground Power up - off the grid Solar panels - for every kid

End the war here - right where we stand Including completion - between woman and man Unite polarities - within and without Children of the AEON - no time to pout We’re all gods incarnate - one single being Split into reference points - between us is seeing So what do you wish - to manifest/make real A future worth living - how does that make you feel? Civilizations come - civilizations go Looking for stability - on the edges of the flow Something to grab on to - an anchor for the soul Chaos on the borders - and in the middle too Random crazy actions - flying off the handle Rude and crude behavior - snuffing out a candle Guns in the schoolhouse - worse on the street Overdose deliberately - escape is not retreat Seeking our salvation - from some other source Plenty of petty dictators - trying to plot a course We’re sick of deathly tyrants - now and yesterday History full of failures - let’s not head that way Defense reactions trigger - offensive retaliation Fighting feuds with drones - national foundation Peace doesn’t come - from engaging in grim war Wealth is not amassed - by booty butter whores Barbarians often overrun - the civil and the kind Crush arts and sciences - choosing to be blind Casting out the baby - religion’s sacred child Violence is no answer - for the meek and mild What we really seek - will not be found without Source encoded inside - born without a doubt Before sense was beaten up - target for the dart Fear replacing wonder - hardening of the heart Drama of illusion - so, what’s the real purpose Soften sharpened edges - sand jagged surface Cleaning grime off grim - coming face-to-face Manifesting beauty - in this puzzle place Toxic men and women - talking down behavior Hating grudge reruns - enemy as your neighbor Division is the tool - polarity of worried mind Imagine what might happen - choose to be kind Behind personal walls - beyond border fences Picture a new version - come to better senses Where kindness is a virtue - thug life to the side Unfolding community vision - caring is our pride Civilization - what righteous concept Being nice to each other - as close as we can get Living with honor - no room for lies No need for cheating - or taking false sides

Pulsars 06:00
Chitter and chatter - as if anything matters Like personal drama - life lived in tatters Stuffed full of corn syrup - growing much fatter Taking up space - chutes and ladders We don’t want - your boss man town We don’t need - this crap to go down We won’t settle - for what’s going around Care for each other - love unbound Make room to consume - mate to make more Get down dirty - on the bathroom floor Porno puppies - debasement door Sold to the lowest bidder - apocalypse whore We don’t want - your boss man town We don’t need - this crap to go down We won’t settle - for what’s going around Care for each other - love unbound So many bodies - so little soul When population explodes - what is our role Breed and bleed - is that the goal What do we offer - to fill out the whole? We don’t want - your boss man town We don’t need - this crap to go down We won’t settle - for what’s going around Care for each other - love unbound

Ancestral zombie dog bitches in the fog of heat Groveling through blackened bloated bellies of road kill meat … It is quite clear that hardly anyone here gives a sweet damn or a dirty sham for anything more or decidedly less than self-righteous indignity … Take then the offensive Get defensive And slaughter the pigs in their cradle A ladle of blood for a taste of oblivion Simian stories from the crypts of civilization … Bring forth our nation as it slumbers through numbers Spun off like flies feeding on the larval frenzy of madmen Returning to the concrete pen where fish are modified To match the genes of laboratory labors Sluggard selves and drab blunted neighbors Clinging to clones of favored flavors Stuck and mucked together as we savor The taste of sweat and the salt of salvation A torrid vacation Through shaven hairs of collapsing infrastructure … Tender boxed truth and return to sender Shit hits the fan in the cosmic blender Render mixed blubber to fatten slim flocks Wind and place the clocks at the docks Where boats will never again set sail Like a snail place lottery bet on who will slime most Dancing backwards with the ghost … Muster bad memories then put them to bed Food for nightmares of all that we dread Soul borers stealing what was given freely Playing touchy feely with media pornographers Hooray for weird and wanton horrors We’ve come to consume your mothers and fathers Goddess crumbles with cookie wishes Stuff and keep her with crappy dishes Wipe the reward from drooling chops With the falling big ball another year drops through the ceiling Paint pealing alongside deep rolling thunder Blundering through an endless hour Tart tasting sour dour notion Oil in the ocean which gave us birth Snicker with mirth Chew your cud Meet with mud Cattle for the coming slaughter …

Why I AM 06:00
chunky bulky - solid matter jam-load cravings - slurred samsara ties of karma - crossing dharma fully packed - crazy drama crowded teeming - in the buff compact heavy - physical stuff coagulation - of material baggage rubble body - syrupy wreckage concentrated debris - ghosts of fear conjured equipment - shoes in gears putting up - with shadow shade appeal illusion - to the grave cram-stow attachments - bits and pieces things desire ownership - others get leases wish-want longing - for packed possessions projection property - endless messes dim dense profusion - belongings deep fat things fill - squeezed into sleep impenetrable substance - gooey dreams dark muffled thickness - in here it seems request petition - through reflection suffer yearning - confused dejection endure experience - bear coveted need maintain an honest - allure to seed One could get lost here - this dream within a dream - fall asleep at the wheel - crash into another wall -destroy a life-supporting world with delusions of grandeur … People politics and pyramid power schemes aimed at accumulations of fame, wealth, and ultimate control over what we must leave behind when we die. Such is the wheel of time, the cause and effect of karma, and the imagined scenarios of disembodied minds drawn to ground and manifest something that appears to be real. Will your worlds be cruel or kind? It all depends on what you have in mind.

about

MID-WINTER - Year of the Wood Dragon musings:

Chaos factors and surrealistic quotients are running high, mass media madness, crazy clues everywhere (in everyone and everything), reflections, words of magic and mass media. This is an honest introspective assessment of time and history, digging into this deep doodoo, for those who appreciate the holographic voodoo of material world manifestation. Pluto is in Aquarius. Expect major change, revolutionary expressions from the depths of the poetic multi-verse. Don’t despair - BE AWARE! Tell your friends. Share the insanity. Make it fun!

Tempest in the TODE POT is present, powerful, potent ANTI-pop for the “sick of being hypnotized” masses (as well as experienced psychonauts) looking for a unique backtrack and “in your face” cosmic exploration of self, civilization, and other. Put on your headphones. Gonna take you in there - if you dare. Listen to the whole body of work. Swap the vibes. Make this home studio strangeness go underground.

Tempest in the TODE POT was squeezed out of the creative test tube through a month of space hunkering, wringing strange and wonderful layers of psychoactive sonics from a new Casio CT-S1000V keyboard, an old Yamaha CS-2X performance synth, a cheap-ass microphone, mixed and mastered on a Zoom R24 digital recorder, while sitting upstairs at my desk in the solar powered Faerie Hill ecoark - a mid-winter project for this aging (almost 72) quite experienced Wyzrd of the Wyrd. Get real. I AM. AI ain’t got nothing on me - LOL.

PS - This whole project began shortly after Facebook seized and banned my account, cutting off access to my extensive social media and music business network throwing a major monkey wrench into hopes and plans for a live Seed the Hive 2024 Tour. Having that whammy happen is sort of like being slammed into the wall. I’m glad I bounce - LOL. This album is reverberation. Who knows where I’m liable to land next. Everything is up in the air. I have a bunch more magic up my sleeve including a regular PODCAST. If you would like to be informed, send a request via email to odonata02@yahoo.com or text: 812-260-2549.

A wyzrd’s craftwork is never done. Nothing is perfect. This is an ongoing process between us. Isn’t reality fun? Remember the Clear Light. Be that. Liberation is at hand - if you want it!
