Another War You crane your head to take it in -- a battlefield of dying men. No one will care when they demise. No one will see tears in their eyes. They died for naught, and cursed the pain. Yes, never more, to fight again. A stillness, blessed. A tragic rest. * * * jrm 23 Feb. 2022 |

A Second Look Looking, again, into my newly-repurchased crystal ball, from the pawn-shop dealer . . . Russia, has regained its title: the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. With the support of the United States' next President, Russia has obtained its ultimate expansionist goal: Re-purchase of Alaska. World domination, by the USSR, is now assured. * * * jrm 24 Feb. 2022 |

Empty Space Empty space, empty space. We're all floating round in an empty space. We're all empty, in the empty space And then all was gone, Nothing was left, in the empty space. The call of my friend sounds hollow. I try to listen very closely In the empty space. No cool breeze, in the empty space. No heavenly music, in the empty space. Feeling the borders And feeling the thresholds In the empty space. The empty space is devouring me. I fall into a wide hole. I plunge into a new world, Leaving the empty space. The empty space The empty space... DJ'21 *track 9 on The Lord Of Creation* rOZZ Music Pictures |

The Fall Of The Autumn It was the fall Of the autumn, Escaping into A big wide hole, Towards the light. It was the dirty End of hatred, Left behind to kollaps With the haters. It was the beginning Of a whole new era, Where lightworkers Had their work back. It was the fall Of the autumn, In the month of October. DJ'21 *track 10 on The Lord Of Creation* rOZZ Music Pictures |

He, Who never sleeps He, who never stops Will pour out the rain In the name of his vain. Love him, he doesn't know better, He, who never stops. He will cut you down. I swear, he will cut you down. In the name of his pain, Love him... In the name of his pain, He, who never stops... DJ'21 *track 13 on 'The Lord Of Creation' rOZZ Music Pictures |

She, Who Never Wakes He, who never sleeps, The guardian of our sheep, The prayers that he keeps, The lost wonder that weeps In the arms of the unknown lover. Oh never have they touched, No more than such, A breeze in the air, It marks the end of an era But never have they touched. She, who never wakes, The guardian of lost souls, The prayers that she keeps, Into her dreams of happiness But never have they touched. Never have they touched.

Turn It To The Left It's a long road to righteousness. It's a long road to peace. It's a long road to understanding, But I always take my turn left. It's a long road to friendship. It's a long road to happiness. It's a long road, the road itself, But I always take my turn left. Right, left is where I go. To the land of tomorrow. To the land of today. Yes, left is where I go, Turn the following road. Left is where I go. Dj'21 *track 17 on the Lord of Creation* rOZZ Music Pictures |

Unto Thee I Grant I was hiding in the sand, Fingers touched one's soul. Never were we afar from the sea, Never were we afar from the sand. I was looking at the sea, Through the sand in my eyes. I saw the picture of you, Looking like the sandman. I was hiding in his arms, My only true sandman. He showed me the sea, Skies and lands, all looking grand. I was a sandman, Rolling through the sand, That sticked to me And gave me different colour. I was standing on the sand, Oh where to look, oh where Thee Grant? In sorrow we must live, In grace we die. But there's the sandman, Looking at his best And the sand was satisfied And the sand was happy. DJ'22 *track 19 on the Lord Of Creation* rOZZ Music Pictures |

Jack In The Box Everytime, over and over, You do things to me. Are they good? Are they bad? No answer has been given thus. You there, living in the light, Think of us, here in the darkness. We find our ways But we need guidance. Love us, Lord We're small, but we're strong. Make us your army of righteousness. We, the people, Americans say. Wij, het volk. Are we your Jack in the box? We, the people. We, the people... DJ'22 *track 20 on the Lord of Creation* rOZZ Music Pictures |

These questions came to mind, after re-reading JohnJoe McFadden's book, "Life is Simple". The particular subject of interest: Gravity. Question I How can the highest pressure result in the least pressure? (Expansion of the universe.) * Of the universe's components: Differentiation - Non-differentiation. Why do the components keep cycling back and forth? (That results in creation-destruction of universes; Chance is established.) What causes a return to non-differentiation? ("Gravity"?) What is "gravity"? (I don't know.) What causes a return to differentiation? (Thermodynamics?) (I don't really know this, either; some inertia is involved, it appears.) jrm 13 March 2022 |

Knowing II Angels all around me, Knowing who I am, Knowing who you are. They sing to us, The song from the heart Of The Universe. The birds set it free. The birds let it see. No more dark energy y y But what has to be be be GO AWAY, HIGGS BOSON! Knowing who I am. Knowing who you are. The Angels are all around me. They tell us the ancient story Of what used to be be be The birds set it free. The birds let it be. Knowing who I am. Knowing who you are. DJ'22 *track 1 on L.O.V.E.* rOZZ Music Pictures |

Just for fun . . . Dark Matter I wrote some dark lines that mattered to me -- on paper that used to be . . . a tree. A strange result was manifest . . . The words I wrote could not be spoke . . . by ordinary folk. The subject penned, was clue for me. Gaze here, to see . . . It's gravity! * * * jrm 26 March 2022 |

The Sea Any lover is the sea, Out of the sea comes the breeze. The breeze is flowing onto the sea, The breeze of the sea. Sea, oh my see! The sea is with you And melting her salt Onto your skin. Come and see the sea! Any dancer is the sea. Out of the sea comes me And the breeze is flowing onto the sea, The breeze of you and me. Sea, oh my see! The sea is with us, We dive into it, Wild and free, The dive into the sea. Come and see the sea! The sea is with me, A dancer from the sea. A breeze is flowing onto the sea, A breeze of the sea. Sea, oh my see! DJ'22 *Track 5 on L.O.V.E.* rOZZ Music Pictures |

Your Grandma's Home Now, why should I, Why should I dream? I see the blue skies, And remember the raspberry bush Near to your grandma's home. I hear the birds sing, And see the butterflies In the raspberry bush Of your grandma's home. The guitar at a distance, Leads my eyes with its Precious tones of God. I close my eyes And see you in a dream, Nearby the raspberry bush Of your grandma's home. If you are in need of my car, Just tell me, and we'll reach Eachothers eyes. If you are in need of some gasoline, I'll be your engine Nearby the raspberry bush Of your grandma's home. DJ'22 *track 7 on L.O.V.E.* rOZZ Music Pictures |
