Mass of people crossing the road

Grey clouds, trenches built, river flowed

Rejecting what we’ve done to earth

Killing nature purely for profit not regal

Not thinking of the future and mass of people

Forgive us for what we have done

Hatred and war not so much fun

Search for the next generation

Different colours of the nation

A lot of important issues need to discuss

For being irresponsible please forgive us*

Somewhere Always Leaving Arriving

Somewhere always leaving arriving ….by Artie & Stu

artiecamenzind's avatarArtie & Stu


Deconstruction imploding outside text
only alone standing alone
dominating the subversive paradigm
the chords are all
one song without beginning
without ending without finality
searching further transformation and
putting pieces back together.

Coming to everywhere at Reena’s Exploration site.
