about

Giver of time and measure,
connecting to the natural time codes of the galactic centre.

lyrics

There was a crooked man who walked a crooked mile,
but he didn't have to if he had followed harmonic time.

Now once upon a day out of time in the lands of the Maya,
when fire was hotter, coconuts cooler and ayahuasca stronger
than it is today.
Everyone everywhere knew they were a part of everything,
and honoured the light in each,
Inlakesh, Inlakesh.

For they understood the patterns and cycles in nature,
the thirteen tones, the twenty keys or glyphs.
That form the very web of life.
The harmonic ratio,
the tzolkin, the hexagram of dreams.

1320, time is art, the art of being, hu-man.
Who you are, hunab ku.
O yum hunab ku eva maya emaho
The art of being.
13 moons of 28 days with one day out of time.
2013.

But then time tumbled down the quantum hour glass,
of forget fullness,
Here comes twenty first century schizoid stress.
1260, time is money, forget the honey,
it's a propolis now, forget bee-ing.

Wholesale gregorian mayhem.
A right proper apocalypto,
ground to zero.
Pandemic amnesia catatonic squeeze ure,
1260 time is money.

Stop stop,
it's time to remember, the 21st of december 2013
dare to dream, heal the isms, schisms,
chasms, b'earth spasms
and re ignite excitable spore-gasms,
it is here, it is now, this is it doot doot doot.
