From The Earth We Rise, Into The Earth We Fall by Miztrebor

I.
I am a wall
Built out of the earth
Formed and dried
Brick by brick
Lifted and laid
Mortared and set
I am a wall

II.
I am the ivy
Grown through the soil
Year I creep and year I creep
Attaching myself deeper and deeper
Day in and day out
I am the ivy

III.
I am a wall
I am the ivy
Together we serve a purpose
I’ve been built from the earth
To stand strong and not fall
I’ve grown through the soil
To take back earth into earth
Together we are death
Together we are life
We came from the earth
We go into the earth
I was the ivy
I was a wall

You truly are a force of nature!
You truly are a force of nature!
You can wrap your ivy around my wall anyday!

Nature is a force
Nature is the force not i. I can not take credit for the works of nature. It just engulfs me and flows through my pen. Apollo and Nature guide my words. And as usual thank you.

It's a force that we can live with and in harmon
To Robert Zimmermann (Bob Dylan's former name):
I walked along the beach just before sunset and I had a pure moment of bliss - you could hear the silence! Nature guides the path in my life also!

Sadly
Sadly i was not named after the great Dylan. It was actually an after being named that a nurse asked my parents if they had named me after him, and they were like "we didn't think about that." It's also sad that only my teachers realize who shared my name, not many of my peers.

well then it's a honour to meet the namesake
well then it's a honour to meet the namesake of
the great Bob Dylan! By the way my favourite album of all time is the soundtrack to PAT GARRETT AND BILLY THE KID by 'who know who' - and it's evocative atmospheric music that you can play at a funeral or a wedding! Music dosen't often have that tender duality!

Knocking on Heaven's Door - a song from the Lp
if we are knocking on heaven's door - then it is the one we walk through on earth ... because heaven and hell is all here for us during our time on this planet - and it's up to us as to what one we choose!
