THE BEING art & design : Art, Illustration, cartoons, graphic design

I tripped and fell down from the skies
And as I tumbled down and tried to swim
Through the air humid thick and thin
Avoiding swarms of mocking mockingbirds
On my way down to earth
I realized:

"I only have to close my eyes
And think of wings
Air is not water
So why should I try to swim?!
I walked on milky roads before
The mistake was none but mine
When I tried to see the sky
I should have realized
That looking up would make no sense at all...
But I am the fool!
And mistakes are in my nature
And my nature is a necessity to be
And to become…
Then, is this a mistake at all?"

And so I closed my eyes
As I continued my tumble
All of the remaining ninetythree miles down
I thought of wings but met with rubble
And in the last seconds of my life
I realized:

"There are no flaws in nature and in space
And every step of the ladder that I climb
Is a step towards my destiny
Be it up or down
Is a matter of perspective
But there is always an objective
A reason perhaps at first unseen..."

THE WHEEL

And three came out of the womb
As I was sitting there
On pearl-paved pathways
And watched the rain pour
Gently from the earth
Into the infinite sea of stars
Through which I had been swimming
For so long before I was allowed
To see the sea and see
This spectacle from a new perspective
For I was angled upside-down
And downside-up
Only to be reborn
A new I and a new eye
Into the new aeon
Born through one and nine
To become three and free
And be as mercury
To solve and to coagulate
To divide and to mix
To become six
And die again
To become seven
Struck by eleven
I became two and twofold
To sow confusion and harvest wisdom
And sow again that wisdom
For wat we sow is what we harvest
And now I am sitting here
On pearl-paved pathways
Angled for progression
Through the infinite sea of stars
And as I watch the rain pour
Gently unto earth
I watch the spectacle and learn
How three grew into the womb

WEGWERPSCHOONHEID

Als een jonge loot
Die uit de grond ontsproot
En woest werd uitgerukt
Geplukt
In een pot gedrukt
'Zo is ze mooier'
Van de pot gerukt...

Issued by: The Mercurius Collective New Era Productions > ORDER CD HERE (€ 12,50) > ORDER VINYL HERE (€ 13,50) Info: The Being's debut album deals with the concept of inner-transformation and personal growth on a spiritual level by combining the arts of philosophy & poetry, music & magic into one coherent whole. A musical style perhaps best described as dada-folk / neocabaret - though not strictly bound to a genre - takes the listener on a journey through a the realms of self-transformation with a strange, unworldly and experimental mixture of moodswings that intentionally shock the mind and purposefully disturb the mental balance.	/\ Back to top No flash player!
