Time Zero
I
Somewhere
Under the sky
Falling in a spell
No things to describe
Could be nothing
Could be hell
A narrative
Angels fled
I crave the hope
The other place
To dwell
I have no sermons
To say
No grace
No strength
No beauty to tell
But I am assured
By the lions roar
The sweat and salt
Somewhere by a shore
Where darkness and light meet
I am
Though no more
And the world
A concussion of pain
Will turn
And turn again
– Ephraim Hylton
Blurred Light (audio)
Blurred Light
Going away
shadow’s shadow
fire liquid drop
trips to a Milky Way
Perpetual lust
of stars
and orange clouds
ribbons streaming
the mesmerizing morning
a memory
of blurred light
unconsciousness knows you well
to think only our bodies
enjoyed this arousing
is to think again
what cannot be thought
what was…is
like a forest
though cut
the movement of trees
will rise
its presence always felt
like rain in a misty air
or snow upon the face
it is there
though in another state
desire of many parts
in the form of a woman
takes me
like fire
– Ephraim Hylton
Thoughts That Dream (video)
Thoughts That Dream (audio)
Thoughts That Dream
Thoughts that dream
Zero infinite zero
Tears dissipate
As you touch the sun
And fall between
Broken lines
Bombarded by the light
Baby eyes blink
Within
The genome sketches
reassemble rearrange
Without
The planets give to a Milky Milky
Surrounded suspended
Influx black paradox
Breath in deep
The breath of life
Propels you to heavenly kingdoms
Imagine worlds and planets
Eyes will never see
Yet they spin in out of orbits
Ascensions descensions
Cris-cross collisions
Silent fractured fragments
If you will
you will hear
A quiet dark silence
You will feel
A gravitation
Your heart
As vibrations
Your life
As action
Though sketches
Have yet to imagine
Thoughts that dream
– Ephraim Hylton
Everyman (audio)
Everyman
I am from
Trees and mountains
Sky and seas
Collision of stars
Become me
Mark my birth
I am forever
And I am now
Everyman
Trapped in time
Captured in space
But free of mind
And spirits’ Grace
That goes through
Friction and fog
Fiction and fact
I am mist
I am air
Bound to courage
The one who dare
Fight in life
Fight in death
Never give in
To fear
And its illusion
For death
Sits silently still
To the memory
of everyman’s
Fulfilling will
– Ephraim Hylton
