TRIBAL SPIRIT Chapter 3
by Aashid

Isn't it wonderful to be?
Because, you know, I was once before, I think
I was told that I was and I'm still looking
Trying to find out what I was
I mean, I know that I must have been something
Because everything is something
And when we adapt to those things that are something
We become something else
Other than what we thought we would ever be
But I still am. Would you like to be?
Well, if you'd like to be
Then that means that you've always been
Through all this we still see, and when we see,
Then sometimes, we may even learn to feel
And by feeling then we know, we know that we are
And when we feel that we are
We can reach even further into the distant future
And pull in all the dreams that we thought we once had
But maybe we don't have them anymore
And then maybe we do
Because sometimes we don't even remember
Which dream we had when
Even though we may say, well, I know I had a dream
I think most of the beings who are at least once, had a dream
Or maybe the dream was just something to participate in
Because you had nothing else to do
And it really didn't mean anything
Except it occupied the time in which you were doing it
And when we are doing it, maybe they are too
If we know them, then we can find out
But if we don't know them
We would have no way of finding out
What they were doing anyway
But it seems like we all care what they're doing
Because we're always looking at each other
Trying to find out what each of us is doing
And that's who they are, they are each of us
They are other than the one who is participating
In the enunciation of the word
From here I think we should just go
I don't even know if it matters where
Because anywhere we go, we are
In order to be there, we have to be
You can't be somewhere and not be
Because being is being there, where you are
And in comparison to other places
Where you are is the best place
Even though the other place may even have
A different color than the place you stand now
And the color may be a new color to you
But just because it's a new color
Doesn't mean it's a better color
How can you find out? You could ask
Maybe someone who was standing there
But maybe their experience with that
Would be totally different
From what yours was if you were there
So I guess you should just go experience it yourself
I love to go and experience it, myself
It myself, is a wonderful experience
We should all experience it ourselves
Ourselves, the it
We are the it that is ourselves
We entered that in the beginning
We entered that through our spiritual birth
It occurred, but it always was
Because there's no end and no beginning
Only these concepts inside the finite mental structure
In which we inhabit ourselves
The finiteness of us is limiting, limiting, limiting
So we must get beyond that, in order to get beyond that
We must get to the inner being within ourselves
In a very, very intrusive way
Intrude on your inner. Go and be
You are as anything You are as this
This here is with you. It's always there
Haven't you noticed?
It's always there
We are with the tribe of all
The tribe of all that is concerned with the planet
The tribe of all which is concerned
With the being of the planet
With the breathing of the planet
With the loving of the planet
The planet is us
We are the universe
The universe is us
