The Well

by Galen Clark

/
1.
1000 Ways/Cyclical So much to do today I could plot out the course of my life in 1000 ways Anyway So much to think and say I am infinitely lost like a needle in the hay Anyway I could invent the ways I spent a heart both young and free All in due time Ill clear my mind and close my eyes to see Its cyclical in each and every aspect As the sun was born to fall into a casket Days go as days go I know

Spry 04:20
Spry I don’t care for the weather Even often inside I wont wait to be patient Until the moment arrives I’ve felt the veins of the orchard Current coursing and spry Something shimmering lingers The apples clutch on the eye I won't drink from the well if all the well is all but dry I will drink from the well if all the well is all but dry Im feeling spry So many distinctive colors Chromaticism connives This one brims with persistence This one wants to survive This one cultivates peace now This one conjures a fight Wading down in a river Current coursing and spry I won't drink from the well if all the well is all but dry I will drink from the well if all the well is all but dry Im feeling spry I want to construct an orrery To plot events in the sky To find the root of the questions Who what when where or why I won't accept the familiar I'll never work 9-5 Wading down in a river Current coursing and spry I won't drink from the well if all the well is all but dry I will drink from the well if all the well is all but dry I'm feeling spry

In the Way It Calls You Stagger through the rolling fog with quite a ways to go For reasons you knew In the way it calls you Clambering up mountaintops past where each stream may flow Is something for you In the way it calls you Cloak of lilac culminates in light of day While you wander pondering what dreams you may Meandering around each bend in hopes what might be found A fountain of youth In the way it calls you The path may end and you may stand deprived of all you know With all you went through In the way it calls you Cloak of lilac culminates in light of day While you wander pondering what dreams you may Stagger through the rolling fog with quite a ways to go For reasons you knew In the way it calls you

Rustle 03:20
Rustle The world outside the door Rustles silently Laying on the floor Lost entirely Dusted windowsill Settled absentee Sifting softly still Time won't wait if we both stop listening Time it aches to fill what we’re missing in Time won't wait if we both stop listening Time it aches to fill what we’re missing in

Well Inside A Well We’ve got a story about a story about a story We could tell It’s short importance but I’ll tell it if I tell it can you tell We’re talking circles around ourselves yeah we are fine Yea we are swell Dust the meaning off the meaning off the meaning Off the shelf Derivative of all the feelings that we’re feeling Have been felt We’re feeling fine yea we are We are swell We’ll pay the rent on time just give us one more day Repeat the storyline again and then we’ll say We are swell Walk the block on down the street across the yard beside the tombs Haunt the haunting of the light of amplifiers through the moon I want to sleepwalk just to wake up just to sleepwalk to that tune To that tune Today I woke up with a nosebleed I walked over to the sink Felt the blood rush from my head as I started thinking what to think Like a pendulum that’s going out of sync Out of sync We’ll pay the rent on time just give us one more day Repeat the storyline again and then we’ll say We are swell

Hitchhiker 03:58
Hitchhiker Through the travels something’s caught In the mind and in the heart Hitchhiker in my shoes You said I would get it out if I were you Dawn casts on the floor Before it breaks there’s something more I’m gone and out the door A journey calls from long before
7.
Taxes 04:09
Taxes I once equated every color that catches The iris to matchless tone Where I searched for some substance in absence through habits to be alone But then came cascades of trades for my jaded youth I still can’t convey someway one day there came you I was inundated by the tethering taxes of the moon as it waxes on Felt the tip of my time on an axis like the sun as it chases dawn But then came cascades of trades for my jaded youth I still can’t convey someway one day there came you
8.
Or So 02:17
Or So Truth was something tantalizing Falling on deaf ears Convoluted contradictions caught up in those years I know or so 60 cycles oscillating pulsing through the wall Some common electricity is flowing through us all I know or so Age was told and tethered to the lines across the face Wild worn and weathered it all seems to find its place I know or so
9.
When I Must Go On My Way When I must go on my way I never know why but I know I can’t stay In place When I don’t know what to say I open up my mouth but nothings escaped
10.
Ode To 02:21

about

Creating The Well has come from a journey of reflection in years of widening experiential frame of reference, seeking objectivity and truth in the complexities of the world, and striking an intrinsic balance to life and my purpose with it. I hope that people can relate, empathize, and that it may help others strike their own center of being.
