Black
then
white are
all I see
in my infancy.
red and yellow then came to be,
reaching out to me.
lets me see.
There is
so
much
more and
beckons me
to look through to these
infinite possibilities.
As below, so above and beyond, I imagine
drawn beyond the lines of reason.
Push the envelope.
Watch it bend.

Over thinking, over analyzing separates the body from the mind.
Withering my intuition,
missing opportunities and
I must feed my will to feel my moment
drawing way outside the lines.

Black
then
white are
all I see
in my infancy.
red and yellow then came to be,
reaching out to me.
lets me see
there is
so
much
more and
beckons me
to look through to these
infinite possibilities.
As below, so above and beyond, I imagine
drawn outside the lines of reason.
Push the envelope.
Watch it bend.

Over thinking, over analyzing separates the body from the mind.
Withering my intuition leaving all these opportunities behind.

Feed my will to feel this moment urging me to cross the line.
Reaching out to embrace the random.
Reaching out to embrace whatever may come.

I embrace my desire to
feel the rhythm, to feel connected
enough to step aside and weep like a widow
to feel inspired, to fathom the power,
to witness the beauty, to bathe in the fountain,
to swing on the spiral
of our divinity and still be a human.

With my feet upon the ground I lose myself
between the sounds and open wide to suck it in,
I feel it move across my skin.
I'm reaching up and reaching out,
I'm reaching for the random or what ever will bewilder me.
And following our will and wind we may just go where no one's been.
We'll ride the spiral to the end and may just go where no one's been.

Spiral out. Keep going, going...

  • Hmm, what to say? I've been listening to Tool since I was about 13 and saw the video for Sober. Lateralus has been my favorite album for years but I've never loved the title track as mush as I did watching this. This video, and the one for Reflection even more so, is completely insane. I love it. I would pay good money for more. Thank you.

  • Thank you, that was epic. !

    Red and yellow then came to be,

    Push the envelope. Watch it bend.
