Mt Fuji

Lost my shit trying to act casual
I couldn't have imagined
life is what would happen
at first stuck in mental traction
back breakin', inaction
In these dreams I was Charlie Chaplin
walking waddle funny fashion
tight thick moustache
caneing around with bowler cap on
But I've tied my means together
needle and thread
in one ear, for the better
verses sewn through your head
enleashed bombs, en masse
with underlying captions.


These words are like Webster's
one life exits, one enters
but I come through lyrically factual,
thrusting opponents towards the actual
Enemy troops that enter in gradual
and recede with my tidal pool. Water's cool
Then supernatural,
like Northern Lights
I brighten the sky, stars explode
your eyes, wide shut, to capture it all.




If this was try outs you'd be passed on
blasted off like Vultron
If this were Mask, I'd ask them to keep their mask on
I'd ignite as if I'd spilled gas on
this fire burning inside
In wild fire fashion
call in support to thwart distraction
common concoction
of mental torment and detraction.


As I lay my hand on
your knee jerk reaction,
I lay brick, groundwork, pray for action

Aloha Friday Motivation | Fuji Edition| #21

  Happy Aloha Friday! ( BLOG LINK ) There is a Japanese proverb that says, “A wise-man climbs Mt. Fuji once; a fool climbs it twice.” 316 years ago tomorrow marks the last eruption of Mt Fuji, Japan’s most kenspeckle landmark. Situated roughly 2 hours from Tokyo, it is the highest mountain in Japan with its 12,000 ft stature rising up from the landscape like the platonic form of a volcano. Though deemed a low risk eruption threat, Fuji is still an active volcano, part of the Pacific Ring of Fire , home to 452 volcanoes surrounding the Pacific Ocean, roughly 75% of the world’s active and dormant volcanoes, accounting for almost 90% of the world’s earthquakes. Put another way: Major tectonic activity! Fuji holds a lot of spiritual significance, being one of Japan’s three holy mountains, along with Mount Tate and Mount Haku. Sitting atop Fuji is Okumiya shrine , the highest shrine in all of Japan. Ironically, or fittingly depending on how you slice it, lying in the northwest foothi

Happy Aloha Friday the 13 th ! ( Blog Link ) It is, sadly, another somber Friday, with such chaos and atrocity playing out in the world. To say the situation in Israel is complicated would be an understatement. This article tries to simplify it, but I don’t think such a complicated situation can ever be simplified. While I don’t want to dwell on it, I think Wendell berry does a good job of capturing a lot of what I have been feeling as of late: "When despair for the world grows in me and I wake in the night at the least sound in fear of what my life and my children's lives may be, I go and lie down where the wood drake rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds I come into the peace of wild things who do not tax their lives with forethought of grief. I come into the presence of still water. And I feel above me the day-blind stars waiting with their light. For a time I rest in the grace of the world, and am free." Source: The Peace of Wild

  Happy Aloha Friday, Many would shake their head if I told them that Mark Twain and Nina Simone had a lot in common. Yes, they were both writers, passionate about their art form, passionate about many things. But Twain’s writing, owing to the times, was marked with racial undertones, while Nina Simone’s work fueled her civil rights activism. Through all of it though, the two shared a few ties that bind. Here are two pretty interesting ties!   Neither Mark Twain, nor Nina Simone were there actual names. Samuel Clemens pen name was born from his time piloting river boats in Mississippi and Mark Twain is a term that refers to the save depth for a riverboat to operate, 12 fathoms. Eunice Waymon took on the stage name Nina Simone (Nina for little one, and Simone after the Spanish actress, Simone Signoret) when she got a gig in a bar in Atlantic city, hoping to it would keep her conservative mother from finding out about her performances.
