Acknowledgement/ Thank you 5/22/11 7:38 PM
I would like to thank the Most High for granting me both physical and
spiritual gifts, my most precious lover Kara without whom these works of
mine would never see the light of day. To all my readers who are enjoying
themselves and to all the Citizens of Nutopia I would like to thank you for
being my extended family no matter where I go.

Apart of it 5/22/11 7:38 PM
The walls of reality come tumbling down
Ounce you find the right button to push
The dream within a dream ends
Ego, self, evaporate
All is allNothing is real
Sacredness is within each individual
God is one with man but man must awake to this
Only the cosmic being is real
Everything else is illusion

Blank mind is the title 5/22/11 7:38 PM
Erase my mind
Tidal wave of sleep
Uproot my tree
Coma sky
A void waits
Just beyond the horizon
Take a dive in
Oblivion never felt so safe
Sunrise no surprise
Another hour feels just like the last
How many disappointments will I live through?
Does anyone care?
Jack is not nimble
Jack is not quick
In fact hes rather slow
Murky waters have left him frail
His pockets deep still he cant feel
Green fairy comes quicklyTake me home again
Ive had enough of this illusion
Too many agents of doom run the show
Broken in pieces I need to become hole
Oblivion never felt so safe
Oblivion is all that is safe

Cream Pumpkin 5/22/11 7:38 PM
Echoing voices from long ago
Shape today
Ignored by the millions
Dreamed of by the few
The living is deadThe dead are living
A strange reality
An unwanted truth
Peace comes when we exist no more

Judge Not 5/22/11 7:38 PM
When people see me they start judging me
By my hair
By my skin
By my everything
Why are people always judging?By the hair
By the skin
By the everything
Are we not passed these childish ways?
Must we linger in kinder care ways?
Pushing everyone far away
Clinging to insecurities that are out dated
Why people see me they start judging
By my hair
By my talk
By my everything
Why are people always judging?
By my sex
By my skin
By my everything
How many times will people tell me how I should dress?
Saying I dont take myself seriously
What is the measure of weakness?
Is it by the size of your tits or by the size of your dick?
People wake up- get educated
People wake up- set aside your fears
People wake up- live here and now
People wake up- we are one under JAH
Now I know that I talk funny
Is that a reason to judge me dumb?
If you get to know me you might be surprised

Instead of condemning why not open your eyes
Were one under JAH
Were one under JAH

Karas Shower 5/22/11 7:38 PM
Underneath the sun I am no one
Just a drop of rain
Soon Ill be nothing
A figment of the insane
You are just like me
Evaporating into eternity
You and I are one
Separated by acid illusions
Lulled into unconsciousness
Before birth is emptiness
You are just like me
Energy spreading eternity
Living in a constant concept
Pretending it has meaning
Absorbed in the tilling shelf
Until the day we wake up
You are just like mePacify valiant eternity
Heaven and Hell are here and now
Heaven and Hell are here and now
Heaven and Hell are here and now
Heaven and Hell are here and now
The al is all is we
Drifting through eternity

Kerry 5/22/11 7:38 PM
You live behind so many delusions
Its hard to get your read on reality
Youre always right even though youre wrong
When your flaws are shown you get so angry
You dont know how to disagreeHow many times can you hang the phone on me?
Expecting me to take your next call
Read books you dont even understand
Refuse to do the basics you get overwhelmed
Misunderstanding, interpreting unusual philosophy
Im so tired of your circular conversations
Stop asking questions you dont care for the answers
Follow your emotions wherever they lead you
Self-control is a virtue
A messy life and an unwanted baby
Thats all Arizona gave you
See you next time in the welfare line
This is were your emotions lead you
This is good-bye my dear
I always knew it would end this way

Leave Blank 5/22/11 7:38 PM
Tasting sky
Dreaming tea
Walking the line of sunrise
MooneyesSilver ears
Knowing the hiding truth
Im squared
Im on the level
Catch the answered riddle
Quenched illumination
Done building that wall
Free blue bird baby
Nail in my feet
Sleep in the cold
Awake with the morning heat
Steel on skin
Glass on mindNo time to pretend
Tuned into god
Dropped off the grid
Wall comes tumbling down
Spirit dice
Never your tongue
Nature is my only friend
Free love
Free union
Bend your knee to no human

Look Now 5/22/11 7:38 PM
Many people say they want the love of JAH
They dont want to strive for it
Believing they can do whatever they feel
Saying His commandments are not real
JAH loves those who love himJAH loves those who love him
Many people claim to love the Most High
They dont help the poor as they walk by
Some people praise the lord all day
Yet they cant tell you what the scriptures say
JAH loves those who love him
JAH loves those who love him
For real

Mind up Ender 5/22/11 7:38 PM
Its not always sunny in Nutopia
Sometimes clouds roll in
Obscuring liberation
Placing you in a prison
But you cant fearThey will pass
They will pass
Isolation never lasts

no moment 5/22/11 7:38 PM
Sometimes you move forward
Just to stand still
The hourglass is almost empty
You could have sworn it was full
A moment in time is no moment at all
At the end of a very long line
Checkout is broken but itll still scan you
Its all a guessing game
Still you stand there with your products just the same
A moment in time is no moment at all
You stair up, down, and you think youre all a lone
Packing your bags when youre already home
Build a house, had a career, you were never satisfied
Always looking for another bite but the plates are all-empty
A moment in time is no moment at all
A moment in time is no moment at all

Peanut 5/22/11 7:38 PM
Who are you going to follow?
Now that your heros are dead
All you have is an empty tomorrow
Without a single dream left in your head
I wonderI wonder
Will you be able to turn the page?
Or will you get set in your ways?
If the past is your only friend
What are you doing in the present then?
I wonder
I wonder
Why do the young fill you with rage?
Is your former self in their gaze?
Dont worry your time away
Theyll become you one day
Its such a sad circle
But it keeps rolling on
Dreams turn to dustOnly then do you know were you belong
In the end
Does any of it have meaning?
I wonder
I wonder
Just stay were you belong

Self-less 5/22/11 7:38 PM
I have become less myself to be with you
Placed myself under surveillance
Divided my personality traits
To make you comfortable with me
I am not as carefree as I would like
Continually scanning the brain picking the right topics
Walking on broken glass for you
Still you send me to the coals and shower
Always on red alert
Being the me that you want me to be
One day Ill be who I ounce was
If I can find myself back to that person
Everyday I stay in your garden
The more I give myself away
I have become less myself to be with you

Smile 5/22/11 7:38 PM
How much longer must we dance around this pole?
Trying to move forward with nowhere to go
A brick wall would be a nice excuse
Would it stop the pain inside?
Our eyes never meet due to our pride
In an open field were trying to hide
Can we make sense of the mess we made?
Or are we both rain in the shade?
Id give you a box of smiles if it would brighten your day
Would that help us find our way?
Speaking without feelings makes the air thick
This tossed coin is making it hard to think
Our veneer is chipping what will we do
When were naked its only me and you
Id give a box of smiles if it would brighten your day
Would that help us find our way?

Swollen Milk 5/22/11 7:38 PM
Take off your daystar nice and slow
Show me the meaning of mind control
With your guru smile
With your tongue twirling miles
Give me your rug burn voodoo
Tied up frosting windmill
O black Madonna let me hear you sing
Its not the tune Im interested in
If you can slide I can split you
Show you a misfit too
Shotgun
Shotgun
Shotgun
Fork in the road she is a mantis
No more games no more practice
Dragon milk its time to swallow

Through blue shades 5/22/11 7:38 PM
I feel myself losing grip on reality
Drawn into dreams
The world of static fades
Limited life morphs into illusions of the limitless
Narrow minds repel meI stop in the open fields of thought
War disgusts me
Pacify, peace, my home is build
Hatred cant sustain my soul
Only love can cause me to take flight
I feel myself drifting
Drifting away
Drifting away
And I am thrilled

Traverse 5/22/11 7:38 PM
What will you say when the world crumbles?
What will you do when it falls apart?
What will you do when you know all your threats are wrong?
You can build yourself upCreate magnificent works of art
Cities that will boggle future minds
Be as academic as youd like to be
One day,
Itll all blow away
One day,
It will be swallowed by the sun
You can make progressive technology
Regenerate parts of the anatomy
Go to distant galaxies
Travel the speed of light
One day
Itll all blow away
One dayIt will be swallowed by ice
What will you do when your existence means nothing?

Bekle Berhane is a writer, musician, and Marijuana advocate from Boston
Massachusetts. His style of writing varies, he goes from Blank Verse to
surreal nonsense at neck breaking speed. He is something of an anti-artist.
He approaches everything he does with a D.I.Y. ethic.
