Cords and Chords

Cords and Chords

A cord beats with my heart in patterns that I usually ignore. I try to synchronize to the sounds of those around and it only hurts my ears, my soul, my brain, by slow sluggish attempt to live as a “normal” person. There are many chords that flow through my being. Once I hear them I am happy if I follow their song. Other cords strangle and other connect to living energy and others are simply chains. Beat, beat, beat, my heart which thinks it is more than muscle just as my brain thinks it is more than tissue, just as my eyes believe they see, just as my touch feels it is something more than a dream of of of of of of …
What? That’s the point. I don’t know. Yet I do.

    i believe these chords are the frequencies that the earth projects to us all, its like the way animals with their instincts know when its the right time to migrate or go dormant or other things, arteology believes that the solar radiations interacting with the geomagnetic energies of the earth are projected to all of life and unfortunately its mostly the human populace that pays very little attention to this except for the more incredible of creators, such as your self my friend, brilliant art accompanied by equally brilliant words…...

    i love your expression on this topic.. i also notice the difference in using my art. If i do my ‘best’ to create something i hope others will like or if i simply follow my heart..

    This is an extraordinary work of art and words. I love it because I identify with the chords which seem always to be enjoying the journey. Even the painful parts. :0) Song
