Reach Out To Your Far Horizon​/​German Bombers

by Dominic Carlton Jones

/
1.
Suddenly the doors are flung open and everything is in place. A book Calked the Kingdom of love placed down on your knee as you pause in reflection Suggests to me my Journey and past Actions Creating a Kingdom Of Love Is A fitting title To what has just happened and Overrides Real and Practical Needs In everyday Life. What was it that Brought you through to sit In front of Me that Night on that Liverpool Bound Train? I see you reaching out to the outside with sad eyes when the music stops As if saying “Real Life lies Elsewhere”. Your thoughts Lay heavy on Frosty mornings . Splintered Glass and spiders’ Webs. Blue is the colour of Night And Blue is the colour of the day. I strive to fly out of myself like Swallows and Amazon’s In beautiful synchronicity Far flung Journeys To endless Oceans and Radiant Seas. Porcelain pictures Of Primates Running wild and Free Primates Running Wild and Free. I see you dance as if in a trance Beautiful silky movements in gorgeous tandem harmony as you sway from side to side in Infectious Rhythmical Movements . Beautiful splices of life that I Cultivate and share And I wish to share. For We all know the dreadful pain of. Being alone And how it spews out into Alcohol Fuelled tirades Of Anxiety Un-control-ability Damaging Yourself and those Around. I I had to escape, Go outside , Just to catch my breath And come back down Collected. Ready for another bout BUT With a magic flick of the finger it had disappeared and We moved on to Brighter subjects Music Life Freedom Those Necessities For Well-being. Drinking Fine ale and sharing Stories Manchester pubs of edginess and life Manchester pubs of edginess and life. I see Your willowy Eyes Faint As I walk over Hiding behind your Fakery Your Fake image of falseness You falsify life and falsify Existence I don’t Really want to know. Change change Make change Create Change Don’t be led But be one who leads By example in Spoken word thought and deed And In your actions in daily life. For there is no substitute for action It’s The only real reason to be. And as I walk through Streets in Urmston Creating music and words in my mind In my travels and journeys In and out of work places It feels like “Landing on earth” I feel like I’ve landed on earth. Long views of train attacks Endless Views stretching out to the far horizon Reach out to your far horizon Reach out to your far horizon .

It was foretold in a dream Some fourteen years ago You were standing in the rain When I took your hand My plane had been shot down German bombers flying low Behind enemy lines We learned to fly. Behind enemy lines We learned to fly No more tears No more lies Believe in yourself There is no one else And Fly Over these lands And Fly Over these lands And Fly Over these lands Over these lands Over these lands.
