Poem for Peoples Yoga photo show #5

Sing us a song again
I'd like to sing along
Sneak a peak
Sink with me baby
here where it started
Drink up out
stumblehumblerumble
Such tough love
todays kiss
To listen and sing along
We live for you
The grandest of all
History is speaking
Keep it down please.
Peaks and valleys
Her prehistoric history
Lost with time
I eye and flirting
To the very beginning
When you leave us
Our ending

Poem for Peoples Yoga photo show #4

Beautiful sisters
Sidescapes and mountains
Vibrantly vibrant
Who could not look
Sweet copy and repeat
Step all over and inside
What's what…
Flags and signs
Directly from me to you
Bad dreams eating badder dreams
Something is watching
This family tree
Explode
Off Volcanoes
Space station distortion
Then plan our escape
Ghostly after light
Lost in the lights
You look like…
She opened her shell
Drinking under Mary's gaze
Cute for all the reasons I'm ready to please!
Growing around trees
What a remarkable show
Feed us grapes now
opening
In her shadow
The eye the drink
This day the crystal ball fell
Bodies on display
another body
Bodies body
Did the magician step in?
Do you see my California hills?

Poem for Peoples Yoga photo show #3

Have you seen the way the tracks keep breathing open closed you know
The sun touched the shadows, The light dripped all over the window
It was lightning, True magic, electric, hair raising and touching
Progressive and moody
You know, full of life
Dancing singing' drunken whatever just doin' your thing
Carried out of all them same ol things
Right back to the sea
eating sand and smelling beneath her skirt
Do you see it?
Hear it?
Here sleeps the babies that died the night we were born the day we began to speak
Oh don't be so serious, that's a cock and balls we made in the sand
Getting over it might be the part that is most important
I prefer to crash on the beach
Thinking up walls and breaking them down to crown us all please
Or should we keep it all locked up?
Looks like we might of lost our heads again
Searching for knowledge inside empty forgotten idols
Tiki Tiki Time machine
Smoke and mirrors if that's what you like, stars are part of everything
Touched the sun
Drop that bomb with your bikini on, take it off when the job's done
Warning, you are flying above clouds there will be a come down.
Yes I like dressing up and drinking alone in my room
Sure it can get lonely but there are no rules
focus!
This is where we live
Put a little muscle in it, they can take it
Here we kept you sufficiently distracted?
Ha!
Hung up with stars in eyes
We can bring it to life, just because we can
Give them all a show
Someone made it happen, someone thought it
Took us all for a ride
not enough sense to make sense
Americano Bizness, you rotten apple
yes, yes..thank you for helping us to forget
keep thinking
keep playing your song
you are lucky enough to be one of the pretty ones
We keep writing all those songs about you
and you and you
Take her for a dance, take her home, take until there is cake enough for two
Who's coming who's here
The black and white print dreams
do wa diddy da doooo
I heard of a fellow that split the universe in half and shared a smile
To the man outside and the one on the other side inside the waters edge
masked so we can continue to keep this individuality
on this side.
on this side.

Poem for Peoples Yoga photo show #2

Flaunting Colors
Bending over others
Hello sisters flowers
Remember when we were shy?
Unsure of looking behind doors
Admirers, true admirers
Natures things, she makes things?
Progress is making me sleepy
Continue to make choices
Look into the light
The art we choose to make
Choose to see
Lines and circles and forms and…
Please come in or lean on red
Keep sides defined, I walk the line
And bend it
Secret powers at his feet
Under skin perfection
While humankind grows and grows
Drink of his blood and sleep by it's toes

Poem for Peoples Yoga photo show #1

Who stepped on your partner at the party?
for every two of you there is one
collecting and packaging
underworlds, dreamscapes
Just like how God was conceived
Greeted and packaged, "Hello my friend"
Trinity clown faced decoration
so much continues to be said
Who created who created who?
Keep smiling so sweet
Saturated and not so boring
They all sit behind the Green door
Making pictures on the wall
Holding tight to space mountain
Exploring living rooms
Oh Mamma keep on dreaming
Death machine took its wings
So shout it out loud
In the hair of butterflied balls
Peeking under skirts
Always for business use
We are on and see you
Hung up
On ceilings
On walls
Landscapes under skin
Walk the bridge without toll
Organic perfect distortion
My hand, your hand, give a hand
To space and light
Shielded trees to be
Married and married and married
Where Jesus shot his heroine
The stories just came and came
Under re-enacted candle light
Drop the bomb, the ATOM bomb
Is this thing on? tap… tap…
We grew
Yes, we grew
Out the walls and windows too
Then blew threw the roof
Faith will wait all day for you
Sit on our thought, it's OK
Plenty of time for play
To fall laughing on the floor
The blood is thin, helping to
Keep smiling keep your cool
Survived another war
Keeping on keeping on
Wait! Are the lights on?

Submit to my new cable variety show

Dear online community,

It is time to build your resume's, sharpen your pre existing skills, and for goodness sake - learn new skills and meet new people and enjoy the beauty of others worlds.

If you happen to find love in artistic bliss using any of the following titles: Actor, Musician, Comedian, Cook, Artist (painter, photographer, sculpture, arcade game designer, space station operator, etc.), and people with little to no talent or interest in such but would be willing to push the line, walk the line, and bend that line!!! Well if you happen to entertain the idea of being part of a new San Jose based cable variety show, now is your chance to do this!

Please submit any and all information in how you might be able to participate, the skills you would like to share, your business's business, or all or none of the above.

No corporate anything. We are not in this to build more squares on this regimes castle. We are in this to change the world!

You may be thinking to yourself:
Who will you be working with?
how can a variety show change the world?
I like going to McDonalds and Walmart and believe in a two party system!

I can answer all these questions and all opposition.

You will be working with San Jose's underbelly and founders of tomorrows visual and musical artistic universe. We will be directing a gang of overly talented seasoned professionals. Don't worry, we're not snobs all the time. Sure we like what we like, but we're a gang much more interested in learning and teaching! There is nothing at all on the following sites that can hint at what this show will grow to become yet everything at the links below can give you a hint of our background and visions.

To change the world you have to begin your message. Someone wrote the bible, someone else interpreted it, and someone else interpreted that, and so on.

It's ok to like what you like, even that perverse square middle class working stiff living threw prime time is allowed to do just that. So join us and we can enlighten one another, argue, and generally crash off a beautiful coast and mix like oil and water mix. We need you for our show. You, like us, makes up our town and I'd much rather enjoy to agree to disagree than not hear the story.

This is a free show, done threw shear sweat and grit to give to the community. Help scratch our backs so we can help you be heard and seen. Actors, we need you! Skits are writing themselves and rewriting will be key as soon as writing has begun. Looking for people of all shapes and sizes. We need the beautiful, the old and wise, the emotionally explosive, and the sweet kind does.

Thank you for any and all response and submissions.

Forever until permanently lost in space
- Joseph Demaree and John Muller

Portland

Slow moving seasons continue their crawl
The animals grow blind, angry, lazy
happily underfoot
Wet with anticipation for the sun
Cover our petals with your many hands
Stain these streets with your seamen
Bend the line while walking it
Everyone has moved here, a few from
All radiating demanding attention
Ready to grow

Fashionably Electric Wet Liberal Young Crafty Oregon

Choosing sides
Sitting on faiths thoughts
Culturally lost
vibrantly ecstatic
You can do
You can do
You can do it
yourself
attitude

Locking up
to keep inside
your own souls
rusted cage

Making home again
Leaving Home Again
To float on flying rugs and swim in wine
Yes, the sun will come up again tomorrow
Yes, thank you for being you.

California

Dreaming of a mountain top
When we washed up here
Who created who created who created this living tare
All wrapped up with so many places to be
Cement city has another wino
Practicing their aim and tuning the rest out
Our mommas rest deep in dreams
Stepdads bleeding from helping heads
All we want is in you
We listen to the traffics give and take
Here we continue to build and take
Finding time to make friends, hello my friend
Go ahead and say whatever you feel like you need to say
Dream your dreams and build your things
Deep in the belly of the whale I hear her sing:
"Ain't life a beach boys keep me just out of reach
Make some new friends and remember the old ones
All that shouting and screaming's been noticed, it's not the end."

Free Multi Sensory Experience

The show today in SF at Cellspace was fantastic. It was totally free! It had an open bar that only served Sailor Jerry Spiced Rum! There was tons of free food, the catered stuff, that covered veggie, beef, chicken, pork, and many forms of egg salad and soup. There was a free documentary to watch called Hori Smoku Sailor Jerry - A film about the life and times of american tattoo master Norman K.Collins. Directed by Erich Weiss! The film was superb offering an introspective fresh look into a man who broke open a bottle of "I Can" all over the side of Tattoo culture and the beginning of a blooming new art form. This colorfully shrewed trouble maker changed the way people look at tattoos. There was a band!!! A band made up of Keith Morris (CIRCLE JERKS), Steve McDonald on bass (REDD KROSS), Dimitri Coats on guitar (the BURNING BRIDES) Mario Rubalcaba on drums (HOT SNAKES,​CLIKITAT IKATOWI,ROCKET FROM THE CRYPT, EARTHLESS) called OFF! Fuck yes!!! They were great! Punk, Smart, Energetic, and ended with Keith walking off stage while the band played a seriously groovy jam. I was so into it I jotted my number down and nervously explained that I was into it and would love to do their album art. I totally dug it. I saw Circle Jerks play at The Edge in Powell Alto when I was 15 with my cousin. Skinheads started spitting on the band and the band started spitting back. The Circle Jerks kept on playing and totally rocking. All of a sudden I wasn't just dancing in a pit, I was ducking punches and making my way to safety while Punks beat the crap out of some aryan nonsense. I have been drawn to this expressive sound ever since.

Along My Way

I miss you guys... I'm going to be in Portland for a week next week.
How does thing thing work? Can anyone read it or just us? I'm working on a book and would like to have your opinions.

- joe

Hey Monkey, you seen the virgin Mary?
I'd like to share a secret

Oh Yes to Mary
I want to touch your special places
open the curtains and look into the eyes
of our thorn crowned king

Something secret from me
please ask him to tell you to tell that monkey to tell me
What's on your mind?
What's on his mind?
I know we have to follow our own path
Yes you get to visit and often walk alone
Yes oh yes Monkey have Mary tell that crowned king for me
I'll be on my way
just gonna go along my way
Yea you thorn crowned king I hope you don't mind
but I better be getting on
