Haunted
I feel there is so much to do. My dreams are haunted by all the souls who don’t seem happy where they are. They come and wrap around me in my dreams, silently like ghosts saying “I want to escape.” I look at them and say “I can’t help you. I try and you don’t want to hear what I say. You push me away. Why are you in my dreams? Why are you always coming to me when in the real world… when I tell you why you’re hurting, you ignore me or get angry.”
So typical. I remember when I was in their shoes though. I didn’t want to hear that what I was doing was what was killing me and anyone who tried to help me… I shut away. I didn’t want to believe that it was my own problem. I wanted to blame it on everything else or ignore it.
So I had to hit rock bottom before I turned around and listened.
Most of the people I know have to hit rock bottom before change happens and I think hitting rock bottom is some times the only way for people to wake up.
So now we live in America where many souls are confined to the cages of various addictions. They are chained to a state of numbness, to a state of spiritual deadness. Emotions show signs of this or lack of emotions.
If you take off your rose colored glasses, then you see it in every mall or cars or in churches or in the schools. You see people who are uncontent, without peace and off balance.
Why is this? The core of all we do is our soul. So if our soul is off, then all of us are off.
Which is why I am haunted at night. I wonder if this country is going to have to take a turn and fall apart. It wouldn’t take much because money is not real. We are so in debt that it is all just because people believe in it. We live on credit, credit we create because credit is not backed. As long as we believe, then it’s ok.
But the bigger question is how you reach people with an alternative perspective. When what was free is now
but the bigger question is how do you reach people with an alternitive perspective when what was free… is now no longer free.
Music is the only way I see left beyond writing and art. The internet is the only way left for the moment. Although something is doing what it can to destroy the larger portals, which is why the crew and I are building one. We are doing that to try to bring the few portals that are existing together and creating a mother portal. Granted I won’t sell my children into slavery and I am pretty good at finding those to help me care for them or rather they find me.
Then how do I make it the most known digital portal for all those who want to see and share an alternative perspective. Well, my idea was with my next album. I want to make a film to be shown as a social commentary… exposing and then showing ways to come back to balance. At the end of the musical and visual journey put a message and the location. Eventually get kids to join the promotional team (street team, army or whatever you call it) and spread the word in schools.
I want to create a portal for artists of all walks and their fans to connect directly. This portal will be more than a portal because it will be a place where people can connect, learn and empower each other. You know… share news, events and so on. Eventually they will build offline communities.
Many have tried it, all have failed. That’s mostly because they want something out of it and we all know if you expect something… you will be disappointed.
So my work is cut out for me. I need to get the portal up and running. I need people to help monitor it and I need content for education. Then we will launch as a christmas present to the world. Then to make an album and time for me to go out… get the word out. There is only one way to reach people… go to them.
