WHERE DO WE GO WHEN WE DIE.......

INTO THE CAVE
THE WOMB OF THE MOTHER
MASKS REMOVED
EYES TO BE SEEN
OUR FACE SWIPED CLEAN
BY NO MAN
NO RELIGION
THE WINGS ON TIME
BORROW OUR SPIRIT
A FEATHER IN THE WIND
DIRTIED WATER
PURIFIED AGAIN
BY MOTHER NATURES SUN

I got "EXPERIENCED" with Jimi Hendrix......

Funny how as a teenager , I would save face an say I liked or Disliked certain Music
without even really giving a listen.
Being one that had a big toe in all the groups of kids....
Not specifically "IN" one group but apart of many......
wether they be the disco skaters on the weekends
standing on the corner with the punks at lunch
or surrounded by the jocks and cheerleaders as a High School football manager
learning how to study with the Smart Geeks (because cheating wasn;t an option anymore)
each group maintained their stance in the specific genre of music that matched their :label:

My step dad always ~had this tiny radio in the Kitchen ~set to 102.7
in the car too! I grew up listening to all his classic vinyl
He had it all ~the Turtles, Chuck Berry, the Rolling Stones
Cream , YES, The Doors, The Allman Brothers, Greatful Dead thru to
Led Zeppelin!!!

And everyother weekend hanging with my Dad,
it was Vivaldi, Bob Marley, Mozart, Bob Seager,The Moody Blues,
Donna Summer and Pink Floyd.

 I have to say Roller Skating at The Roxy, everyweekend,
had me living in love with The true Funk Masters like
Parliament `Funkadelic, James Brown an of course
Michael Jackson. Somehow Pink Floyd slipped in at the rink as well,,,,,
and I would always ask which one is Pink....
Later on,, found out that was an actual lyric
and they became my highschool favorite band.

Because you see ~I got
"Comfortably Numb" with Pink Floyd~
"Experienced" with Jimi Hendrix~
"Dazed and Confused" with Led Zep~
I went down to the
"CrossRoads" with Cream
and had to
"Paint It Black" with the RollingStones
after
I flew like a
"Free Bird"with Lynyrd Skynyrd.....
 I got stuck at the
"Hotel California" with the Eagles.
There was only
"One Way Out"with the Allman Brothers
cause G-d Only Knows
I couldn;t just
"Let It Be" with the Beatles
or
I could Get caught in a
"RoundAbout " with Yes
and always wonder
how to be
"Happy Together" with the Turtles.


My father sat me inbetween his two little speakers
attached to his cassette deck player
blasting the Beatles when I was two,
I've read that the brains' strutcture changes if one studies a stringed
instrument.....
I am curious , if the same thing occurs for brains that listen to music
at a very young age?!!......

All I know is that Music is my balance in life. It validates my feelings, helps me
thru rough emotional times. Conjures and eliminates , quells and ignites,
like soaking your soul in warm water. My Life wouldn;t be complete without my music.
 I could Play this Music word game with titles all day long~
I barely touched the Ice
The whole Jazz scene, Zappa, the 80's scene ~ I mean I could go on an on ~ maybe
for another time!!!! And WOW.>>>>the Music of recent days.... Van Halen has just
entered a new found appreciation not to mention Violent Soho from Brisbane or
The Black Keys, The yeah yeah yeahs, Queens of the Stone Age, SOTD,  oh man
I could just go on about Jack White..... perhaps another time.

Thanks For sharing with me And my nutty thoughts~

Dedicated to an Amazing Soul ~ a beloved friend~ John Sabatino ~


i wonder how long it takes a bee
to break the habit
that the honey comb has been
batted down/
how long it takes to comprehend
what the heart already understands
that the floor is missing
but how the carpert doth lie
never stopped the creaking of wood
that the truth couldn’t hide
let me stand on the earth
g-d let me feel ur dirt upon my souls
clean me up
send me on my way
receive me
craddle me in the winds of your breath
the wings of your light
like angel babies sing me to a new life
a new comb of
3.1415
~cAT
inspired by an angel voice in Lia Ices
Thank you for inspiring me
to send G~d Forth thru my hand
i surely love being his personal pencil
our lives are like drawings in the sand
Dedicated to John Sabatino

JACK WHITE"S LYRICS ~SIXTEEN SALTINES ~BRILLIANT




She's got stickers on her locker, And the boys' numbers there in magic marker,

 I'm hungry and the hunger will linger,
 I eat sixteen saltine crackers then I lick my fingers, 

Well every morning I deliver the news, 
Black hat, white shoes, and I'm red all over, 
She's got a big mailbox that she puts out front, 
Garbage in, garbage out, she's gettin' what she wants, 

Who's jealous? Who's jealous? Who's jealous? Who's jealous of who? 
If I get busy then I couldn't care less what you do, 
But when I'm by myself I think of nothing else, 
Than if a boy just might be getting through and touching you, 
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/j/jack+white/sixteen+saltines_21006342.html ] 
Spike heels make a hole in a lifeboat, 
Driftin' away when I'm talking and laughing as we float, 
I hear a whistle, that's how I know she's home, 
Lipstick, eyelash, broke mirror, broken home, 

Force fed, forced meds 'til I drop dead, 
You can't defeat her, when you meet her you'll get what I said, 
And Lord knows there's a method to her madness, 
But the Lord's joke is a boat in a sea of sadness, 

She doesn't know but when she's gone I sit and drink her perfume, 
And I'm sure she's drinkin' two, but why, where, and what for and who? 
And I'm solo rollin' on one side of the boat, 
Looking out, throwing up, a lifesaver down my throat, 

Who's jealous? Who's jealous? Who's jealous? Who's jealous of who?

upstairs !!!! R.I.P

Well, many years pass by...... all us village kids grow up.
I;m like 17, my parents go away for a 10 day sailing trip........
bored bored bored~
the milk bar was where I ended up!
 bringing some strange junkie dude~home with me~
(((first time i ever picked some random
dude up EvERrr....)))

NAME: FETISH with an ENglish` accent~
  …the accent was gone..the next morning!HA!
 he asked me if I wanted to make some cash…
That he would take my pay check & triple it….long story short..by the end of the week I was doing dope/coke like Michellle Pfheifer in scar face…cutting lines on my Vanity with the glass top..




feeling like I had been played~ a broke Joke, this Dude, FETISH and I were pretty much OVER>>>
we needed a break from eachother -
we agreed we’d go our seperate ways and meet back at Westbeth at 6am
…fine…
HENCE~the night before~ I was putting my lipstick on in "AREA" bathroom…
co-ed of course....
and this Guido with a lime plaid coat, to the floor, asked me if i wanted to do some lines in the stall…sure!!!..WE exchange numbers.....
THE NEXT NIGHT~
Guido Dude calls, wants me to come to the Rockaways 
I think to myself ~Not a good idea being stuck out there!!!
SO......
~1st broken rule~ tell Guido where I live and to come pick me up…
He's still in the same absurd jacket…
he has the biggest bag of coke I’d ever seen…
he’ puts an 8ball down 4 my bro and his girl….
we split…
he says we have to drop this shit off to keith herring.¿¿!!!¡¡?....
down on Rivington St…its real shady down there back then..over near chrystie st..
and we’re knocking ~~~banging ON THE DOOR
…no good…no answer
We walk to a pay phone.... no one’s picking up.....
his anxiety is  freakin' me out…
we start to walk..along that park over there…
and this car, outta NO wheRE cOMEs to a sKretching hault and 2 dudes get out.....
and start running after US…I look back ..
Guido Dude tells me to run… 
"I’m nOT WITH U ….UR CRAZY"…& I turn and see the guys coming right for us
 and I start running.....
get to the corner..Delancy st.. bowery??
a cab happens to pull up to the corner and we’re in it…
one dude that was chasing us enters down into the subway.... like he 
 and jerky GUIDO , in the lime green plaid coat, decides NOW he’s gonna be the chaser!
 As the cab wants to drive away GuidO's walkman falls into the gutter and he is now jumping out of the cab and running down into the subway.....
I tell the cabbie to pull away.. I am like PULL AWAY….Cabbie tells me I need to close the door…
and as my hand reaches for the door…Guido Lime Jacket is swooping up his Walkman from the gutter and he is pulling the door open as I am trying to close it.... he eyeballs me like~~ were you just gonna close the door on me?!
the cabbie is starting to get pissed…Guido boy tells him to go to the Palladium…
I sAID nO !!! (I knew my friend Peter was going to AREA, SO, …I insisted on AREA~  scared!)

The Cabbie is frustrated- which one will it be Palladium or Area??!!
AREA!!I was freaked out , trying to hide it but would not back down! AREA-It was!!! I felt better knowing I was on my way to a club I knew inside out and that my friend would be there to save me ~I WAS PRAYING>
…GUIDO DUDE has got me outside talkin' shit~ I'm trying to play it cool ~not even listening~
 "Ur not like all the girls, Ur so pure~Ur so Fly~ Ur my kinda of chick,,…blah blah bblah…lalala lallah lah blah blah blah…." He's trying to kick it to me?!

I’m not even listening cuz' I'm still So Freaked out and ALL I can do is envision a way of how to get AWAY from him….
We finally get inside and as soon as I could~
 I bent down way low and literally was like hiding…down low, making sure that as long as I could see him.. from FAR away, it was good…I was looking for my friend….. he was not there!! Panic was setting in.
As I circled thru that tunnel for like the 800th time…someone took my hand…
I look up and it was DAVID. S .....!!! SCILKEN!!!! DAVE???!!!!
I knew him since kindergarten..he was my safe haven..... the relief was profound! I could breath.

David S. pulls me into VIP bar section. he reaches for that soft , safe, elegant Velvet Rope.....he;s like what's up Tooty Bottoms....that was my knick name.. it;s been a long time!!…someone wants to meet u..how r u?? U look GreaT!!
.....and as we walk, I look up and I see Donte Ross first.. Adam, Mike, Adam, and some cat with a nutty beard (Rick Rubin)....
 I’m introduced ~I’m handed a drink..I’m like what the fuck is happening,,,,they’ve got their tags..they just completed a show at Madison Square Garden???!…la De dA! … it registers in my mind barely ( SO nUMB).... The Virgin Tour!

Did I want to go to WHITE CASTLE????? THEY ASKED ME !?!! LAUGHING INSIDE ~I SAID YEAH!!!!
 (Thinking to myself ~ I've been saved from GuiDO BoY)!!
Next thing I’m in a limo..lighting a joint..I think only Mike D  smoked it …
I think back, none of them wanted any,,,,, they were ALL on a White Castle Mission.....
burgers…surreal...high…floating… safe.
one by one the boys are dropped off~ Leaving Adam H and me ~
He wants me to do him in the limo.....
the whole while, the limo driver is soooo watching…and I’m llike….a nice girl(hahaha) 
and the Driver is watching and
    NO I cant do this with an audience….!!!!
So we end up at Adam's home…
ROLL AROUND EXTREME STYLE
~he gives me his number …he wants me to stay ..but I’m explaining how I’m supposed to meet up with my sooon to be X` boyfriend at 6am…and he’s like call me later!!!…. I told him I would break it off with Fetish ~

Adam asked me "be mine...be my girl"……
yaya I guess we could hang. ..solid like…..i’ll call u later…

first mistake…told Guido Dude where I lived…
 Floating home ~ surreal dreams do come true ~ I wanted to date Horovitz for years~ We went to the same Highschool , always saw eachother on the street ~he;d throw me the cutest smiles ~ I knew he liked me ,Kinda! All these realities floating around in my head....
… I turn the corner on Washington and Bethune…a cab pulls up to the corner and guess who pops out but GUIDO BOY himself..green plaid coat to the floor and all!!!!
 and did I mention no shirt on underneath… tacky freak,
 he follows me into Westbeth…"UR LIKE ALL THE REST …ur a stupid bitch!!!"
…starts pushing me around in the elevator.." dumb bitch!!!" follows me to my apartment

…gets me in my room pushes me down  into my closet ..like raging on me….
I immediately call Adam
from the Mickey Mouse Phone my grandpa gave me~

..he tells me to come right back…
I am walking down Washington street, this dude is full on yelling at me…what felt like a pimp....
I can see Adam watching for me out his window.
Green Lime GuidO is like~ at the top of his lungs~ yelling at me… looking down at the ground all the while..... I am about to get away once again from this scary dude~
 I look up at Adam..his head pops into his apartment an a few seconds later....
I’m buzzed in…and..so bitter sweet…I’m saved once again…never to see gUIDOJack again…
~But what sucked was~ after I let ADAM HAVE ME 20x’s over in every other way…he’s hugging me and securing me out of my emotional turmoil…and he asks me….
"Do you have aids?"… hah,
I was like ~too late bitch.~nOW ur gonna ask me if I’m dirty… too late now...NO JIMMIE HAVING BUSTED<
that was harsh… perhaps being the "NICE" girl from around the way.... being that Adam H and I eyeballed each other in the hallways of Mcburney~ perhaps he had trust in me with safe sex!
but YAY that’s the story…of how we met "officially"…David S.... saved my life that night...... I truly Believe that!
…passing glances ~always making that frequency eyeball connection …Adam and I ,We were Hot and Heavy~ until he left to go on tour and I left to go up to Bard college~~the summer of 86'......patience an the universe conspires,,,
This will be a fun story to share from a rocking chair when I have grand kids ~ my pop icon hooker/groupie days ~
 back in the day~ the history was always shared from the elders to the youth… it feels like the elders don't care to share~~ an the youth don;t know how to listen or even care to ask .... hearing an listening are not the same thing.
Our world is missing the circle. The circle of  good stories an learning listeners.
Like when the Indians sat in a circle
the scared circle.

LIZ~ BET




It;s been three long months since I have had any sort of creative flow.
I started this piece sept 12 for a girlfriend of mine.
I looked at images that made me feel her and this is what my heart put forth.
Happy Second Anniversary Dear Elizabeth!
The perculations are happening and in the quietness of 
~what felt like~ an uninspired summer.... 
Growth takes place in dark spaces~
The Sun was Sowing me this summer
and I am Greatful to feel the freedom again!
The Freedom I experience when I am in my Creative Flux.

 Do you remember how electrical currents and ‘unseen waves’ were laughed at? The knowledge about man is still in its infancy.
— Albert Einstein 

Saturday, August 25, 2012

“I have been at work for some time building an apparatus to see if it is possible for personalities which have left this earth to communicate with us.” Thomas Edison


“If our personality survives, then it is strictly logical and scientific to assume that it retains memory, intellect, and other faculties and knowledge that we acquire on earth...
“...I am inclined to believe that our personality hereafter will be able to affect matter. If this reasoning be correct, then, if we can evolve an instrument so delicate as to be affected, moved, or manipulated...by our personality as it survives in the next life, such an instrument, when made available, ought to record something.”



In 1933, "Modern Mechanix Magazine" went back into history to tell of a secret 1920
gathering of Edision and associates where the inventor demonstrated a "photo-electric cell"
that revealed spirits in a beam of light. However, the article is the only document that  contains this tale and is contrary to a supposed 1920 "diary" record where Edison
discussed his "spirit communication device".(This 'diary" record is found only in Dagobert Rune's Philosophical Library publication,"The Diary and Sundry Observastions of Thomas
A. Edison.")

A stranger came to Edison’s laboratory and told him, “I have come to show you something wonderful. I am going to astound you.”
Curious, yet concerned that the man might be dangerous, Edison invited the stranger in, but summoned an assistant from another room. The stranger told Edison’s assistant to write some names on a slip of paper. Then without ever looking at the paper, the stranger put his hand on Edison’s assistant and read off the names correctly. Believing it was a trick, Edison asked if he could try it. Instead of names, Edison wrote down a question.
Edison related, “I was at that time experimenting with my storage battery and was in doubt about it. I did not feel quite sure I was on exactly the right track.”
Edison’s question was whether there was anything better for a  battery than nickel-hydroxide. Without opening the paper, the stranger answered, “No. There is nothing better.” Then he left Edison’s laboratory. It was the first and last time Edison ever encountered this individual.

Later, Edison met Dr. Burt Reese, and came to a belief  that ALL humans are capable of developing this NEW human sense.

I DO BELIEVE WE ARE ALL SPIRITS CAUGHT IN AN APPARATUS LIKE MATERIAL SHELL.
THE EGO IS A POWERFUL ENTITY IN IT;S OWN RIGHT SURROUNDED WITHIN
ATOMS SPINNING ~VIBRATIONS TRANSMITTING FREQUENCY
BELIEVE AND IT SHALL BE........THE' ID' WILL MAKE IT ALL HAPPEN AS THE 'ID'
IS THE INNER EYE TO THE SPIRITS PATH
THE EGO CONNECTED TO A MATERIAL DESIRE BECOMES ACKNOWLEDGED AND WHEN
THE ID HOLDS HANDS
THE UNIVERSE CONSPIRES
WE HAVE THE POWER ~ WE ARE THE LIGHT! WE ARE RECEPTION>
WE ARE COMPASSION AND TELEPATHY.
A PHOTO ELECTRIC CELL!

-A modern-day warrior
Mean, mean stride
Today's Tom Sawyer
Mean, mean pride

Though his mind is not for rent
Don't put him down as arrogant
His reserve, a quiet defense
Riding out the day's events
The river 
What you say about his company
Is what you say about society
Catch the mist, catch the myth
Catch the mystery, catch the drift

The world is, the world is
Love and life are deep
Maybe as his skies are wide

Today's Tom Sawyer
He gets high on you
In the space he invades
He gets by on you

Though his mind is not for rent
To any god or government
Always hopeful, yet discontent
He knows changes aren't permanent
But change is

And what you say about his company
Is what you say about society
Catch the witness, catch the wit
Catch the spirit, catch the spit

The world is, the world is
Love and life are deep 
Maybe as his eyes are wide

Exit the warrior
Today's Tom Sawyer
He gets high on you
And the energy you trade
He gets right on to the friction of the day

in the absence ~ur not absent......



You have to look outside the box and embrace the thinking that the impossible could become reality. The process of ascension is about changing our dna and inevitably changing our consciousness/soul into a higher frequency that resonates with Mother Earth. Solar Flares activate ultraviolet rays from the central sun our energy source of light, ultraviolet rays can awaken our skin cells and our dna by absorbing Solar Energy through the biosphere. Dna can change through emotions by higher frequency by thought. 
We became out of balance with time and within the multiverse, the earth became dominated by left-hemisphered thinking. 
The brain contains two different efficient frequencies: 
SOUL - The Right hemisphere (Designed for the spiritual world): Present Thinking - our intuitive, creativity, spiritual, spacial thinking, feeling, nurturing, closer to nature, feminine side
EGO - The Left hemisphere (Designed for the Material world): Past, Future thinking- our mathematical, stress management, material, logical, practical,verbal, masculine side.
We are supposed to balance the two sides within our brain for our consciousness to operate at a higher intelligence. 
Emotions trigger higher vibrations and higher resonant qualities of sound frequency. Energy is vibration.

Everything within the solar system is directly connected to one another within the time matrix system. So things that are happening outside of the atmosphere are also within us changing. We are the universe. As the earth is shifting so are we because we’re all connected through the crystalline energy together as one. The veil of separation, the illusion of separation is just that, an illusion we are not only all connected to earth we are connected throughout our entire universe by quantum mechanics.

So what effects the ionosphere which is the electromagnetic fields around the planet will inevitably effect the biosphere into the noosphere. The noosphere is the mental planetary sphere of mind or thinking layer of planet Earth. group consciousness essentially. Jose Arguelles goes into extensive detail about this hypothesis calling it the biosphere-noosphere transition.
