Ulysses V Control Station : “Season 8 has started!”

Season 8 has started! Ground control to YOU. Sit back, enjoy and fasten your seat belts. This is your Captain speaking. Thank you for comin’ onboard”the Texian Space Port for your Soul!”

Season 8 will have some new compositions of mine and Chirbits(Audio shows) as well. I finally got a proper setup. Actually it’s a mini studio. Time is always the problem, so, that’s why I decided simply to improvise my new songs on the piano. I shifted from guitar as the basic instrument. Piano is so cool. You can paint on it landscapes unknown! My first song in years should be released within a month. After that, every month one original song, and furtheron my writings, poetry and all Arts. I finally got to playing music again. I do the technicalities as well. I am your Artist Universalis, the one and only Emperor of Texas, the cradle of civilization, don’t forget it!For all this to be possible I got myself a great stage piano(keyboard with an amazing 600 basic instruments, plus many more functions, 2nd hand at a bargain price of 3 hundred and 50 f*ckin’ expensive euros. Of course the MIDI controller(USf*kin’B and true), gives you an unlimited array through the computer. Still the inbuilt amplifier is great. So is its sound! What’s the catch? The woman from whom I bought it had no time to play on it. It’s great! Well, not really. This seems to be the future for all of us. Work and more work. Fuck the economy dear readers. Don’t let yourself be turned into slave labor. FIGHT. Protest, the politicians make you believe we are in Wartime. You can even play SALSA on it! Serious. An amazing instrument! Any else to share? YES, actually, these SHOES have been approximately one and a half times time around the Earth on my home trainer and combined outdoors. I gotta get new ones. Unbelievable! They are "Made in Italy" — and unbranded! They are now finished and started decomposing, like space gear in space would not, after a while due to lack of gravity, I am guessing. 

Next entry on Ulysses V, will have a new Chirbit! Don’t forget to listen to my latest Chirbit of a while ago. Web address is : http://chirb.it/nqE617. It’s lengthy. A good two hours. The next one will be shorter so that I can adapt them to video for Youtube. I can’t fill up two hours of video!

Thank you dearest Kathy, sublime poetess of Love and America. It's always good to hear from you. You are in my heart 24/24. Not much writing at the moment. Will get back to it. Painting I haven't done seriously for a quite a while. It is another world, also with many Universes to it! I hope you are well and in good Spirit, happy and in Peace, not too much working. At least as much as you enjoy it, not more. My Love to you, dearest poetess of the 21st century.”

Nice of you to think of me dear Ronit. Maybe we get friends again! No harm meant. I have a bad temper and Amsterdam irritates me. Especially the big egos wandering about.

You art though is unique as you are in your ignorance and wisdom. My Love to you.

Refreshing, good old-fashioned anarchistic talk... Brains and more brains in an era of anti-intellectualism... The State of the intellect today, the luxury of brains, the luxury of time, the luxury of Love, “the agent orange liberals” — as I call them — taking over the world, the good boys and girls obeying “The New World Order”, “The Brave New World”, polished and medicated into submission. The Revolution in submission? Let’s hope not.

Here's a very beautiful song, sang by Billie Holiday, to End this Entry. Billie Holiday, the one and only singer of Jazz truly. Her dedication was beyond many. Hard work doesn't always pay off! She died young for all of us. Listen and enjoy and feel the reality of it.

Sunday Morning♫

Posted by Venu Duval                                        http://theemperoroftexas.com 

Good morning folks, people and friends!

It's "Sunday Morning♫" here in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.

The local temperature is 38 degrees Fahrenheit. It's warm for the time of the year. The wind is blowing from a Western direction at a speed of 7 miles. Well, something like that. Visibility is around 6 miles. I can see in the distance the silent awakening of a new day!

It's not so difficult. We can all achieve it!

Lyrics and sung by Lionel Ritchie:

Say you, say me; say it for always
That's the way it should be
Say you, say me; say it together
Naturally

I had a dream I had an awesome dream
People in the park playing games in the dark
And what they played was a masquerade
And from behind of walls of doubt a voice was crying out

Say you, say me

Say you, say me; say it for always
That's the way it should be
Say you, say me; say it together
Naturally

As we go down life's lonesome highway
Seems the hardest thing to do is to find a friend or two
A helping hand
Some one who understands
That when you feel you've lost your way
You've got some one there to say "I'll show you"

Say you, say me; say it for always
That's the way it should be
Say you, say me; say it together
Naturally

So you think you know the answers, Oh no
'Couse the whole world has got you dancing
That's right, I'm telling you
It's time to start believing - Oh yes
Believing who you are: You are a shining star

Say you, say me; say it for always
That's the way it should be
Say you, say me; say it together
Naturally

Say it together, naturally”

Such a great song by Lionel Richie!

Here it is: a packed entry on the Texian Space Port for your Soul! As promised. I always keep my promises. That's a lie. I do always pay my debts.

It's packed and packed and getting more packed every day. Don't forget together we can save the world and make it a better place. No joke!

Should be published in Fb's notepad today or tomorrow. Don't forget to read on the Texian Space Port for your Soul! :

Don't forge to include some healing in your life. It's new. Online healing. Does it work? She opens your mind to a new dimension and writes some very serious poetry. Maria Celeste G. : http://mariacelestegarcia.com

A feature on : http://theemperortexas.com 

Morning has broken by cat stevens.

“Morning has broken, like the first morning
Blackbird has spoken, like the first bird

Praise for the singing, praise for the morning
Praise for them springing fresh from the Word

Sweet the rain's new fall, sunlit from heaven
Like the first dewfall, on the first grass

Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden
Sprung in completeness where His feet pass

Mine is the sunlight, mine is the morning
Born of the one light, Eden saw play

Praise with elation, praise every morning
God's recreation of the new day

Morning has broken like the first morning
Blackbird has spoken like the first bird

Praise for the singing, praise for the morning
Praise for them springing fresh from the Word”

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cat_Stevens

Just one line should be corrected. What the f*ck where you thinking about when you wrote - “God's recreation of the new day”.

My correction:

“God’s Creation of the new day!”

 

Which reminds of a Sonnet I wrote a long time ago:

A Day Has Passed... Shakespearean Sonnet 1995-1

A day has passed as Birds sing a song.
Has thou worshipped like them and theirs Anthem?
Has thou let guide thouself , just as them?
And waken up thy Highness, ‘t glorious Sun.

With thy Morning Walk the river along,
That before day has broken follows the Stream,
That thou has chosen for God’s Realm;
With thy Stepping-Song the river along.

Or be it, thou has slept the Morning Come,
And light that thou has not lit seek,
An be it Nighted in a soul asleep.
Thy Torch must be timely to the Sun

And then will she be lit, on Day’s Break
And be it Day, in a soul awake.

 

Don’t forget: “I AM THE GREATEST ALL TIME!”

The band “Ex. Wave” is sensitive, subtle and very harmonious music from Italy. Mamamia! It’s not spaghetti westerns I am talking about here. It’s music in the great light of the most beautiful Claudia Cardinale(just an impression). It’s once upon a time in Italy!

The composer Luca d’Alberto inspires us by his sensitive touch. I must find time to find out what is real name is. I am gonna make a man out of him! I am just gonna call him "Alberto".

A violinist who suffered the torture of the 'conservatorium' and finds it difficult to rhyme with modern times. And it is. He was lost already at birth. It is not easy to be a musician and man nowadays. To be a composer is even more difficult. Thanks God we also got inspiration. Musicians inspire us and we hate them! Well, I do most of the time. Don’t forget to listen to his classical compositions.

Benoît wrote on Mark Suchocki's wall.

New York, New York! Thanks for having me onboard your peaceful ship!!!! Will see what you are all share and inspire me to! Light and more Light! The darkness of the ages are but all too apparent and all too misty! It's a crying shame. Economy rules everything.

So, People! When do we start? When do we overturn 'the mechanical world view.'.

Don't forget together we can save the world! It's not an easy thing. Spreading more Love and Peace! Whatever. Convincing your neighbor that money should be are only politics. Not the economy! Energy is important, meditation, YOGA, good vibes, education, not torture, singling out the bad seeds and isolating them.

Killing the negative pull of the vested interests especially wherever you live and getting others to do just the same.

Never forget that we musn't completely bury the hatchet. Balancing the thin blue line as I call it.

We must inspire others to that end through force sometimes.

We musn't let the Bible prophecy become a reality. That's the problem. That's why I adhere to Eastern wisdom. Most solutions are in it.

Namasté, gurus, Eastern wisdom, Old sayings, the truth, these are the solutions, Islamic peace not foes. A United States of the World! I call it Rumi Sense! I think that is the solution! It's not so difficult. Nationalism is just bullshit. The United Nations suck to the bone.

Where getting there together! I am an optimist. It can be done.

Don't forget to sponsor your local Green environment. It's of most crucial importance!

Don't forget to read my latest note in Fb!

And I forgot. Don't forget to read on my poetry blog once in a while. This one is a happy birthday greeting for Muhammad Ali ~the greatest all time~ for his 70th birthday. Muhammad Ali inspires me since a young age and continues to do so everyday and will continue to inspire me till my last breath. I don't know why? He's the greatest ever to walk on this planet.

I was in only the 100ds on Fb to wish him a happy birthday! Can you beat that? I hope he reads it. Bless his Soul

Feature of the day! : SHAD BLAIR

Listen carefully. This songs says it all. Shad Blair’s unique songwriting is top of the charts. He’s the new kid on the block.

Prisoner Of War

“Well he's staring at a bunch of papers wondering which ones to sign
Some say he can have the money if the others say he's lost his mind

He could really use the money cause he can't work anymore
His mind's too bent and his back's too broke. He says it's all caus of the war

He's having a beer and a cigarette It's not even twelve o' clock
When I walk in and, give him a hug and, we sit down to have a talk

He says you're looking more like your daddy son, each and every day
Boy, C'mon in and have a seat I've got some news that's comin’ home

Post traumatic stress disorder that's what the VA says I've got
I guess all them memories a’re finally stacked up from a war that everyone else forgot

I got this sickness down in my lungs son and my blood's running thin
Boy I think you're looking at the ghost of a Vietnam veteran

I've seen some good men go down and they say I'm the lucky one because I got to come back to town
It's been near forty years and I can't close the door

Just walking around in my own damn house as a Prisoner Of War

Yeah it's near forty years later, and there's another war in progress
There's stands another soldier with his own traumatic stress

He's driving a tank through the sand, watching all the destruction on the screen
He tells me it's all more like a video game with all the brand new technology

He says you know man I feel like I've aged twenty some odd years
It’s only been seven short months since I shipped my ass back over here

Cause they work us hard every day and night. And I'm finding out it takes a whole lot of work to cover up stuff that just ain't right

You know I’ve seen some good men go down like Birch and Chavez from the first tank battalion

You know it’s a crying shame caus they will never be a settled score
Cause no matter whether we live or we die… we'll always be… Prisoners Of War”

Don’t forget to buy his cd. Don’t let real art die. Show your appreciation. http://shadblair.com or http://www.lonestarmusic.com/ShadBlair

Tomorrow starts the year 4710 (YES!) or 4712 according to certain very learned Chinese scholars! It's the Year of the Dragon!

The new moon in Aquarius is on Monday, January 23, 2012 and coincides this year with the 1st day of the Chinese New Year. This year is "The Year of the Dragon." The New Moon is a time for new beginnings and sowing seeds of creation. Think about what you would like to consciously manifest this next year over this weekend and set your intentions on Monday during the new moon and Chinese New Year... a most auspicious day to cast your prayers to the Universe! ♥

I love your collections of sharing. They are the best!

What is your favorite live Miles Davis album and why?

Sketches of Spain. Especially “Song of our Country”. Actually I am just bullshiting. All of it! It’s the best that I know from him. I met him in 1989, coked out as he was. Haha! I am the lucky one. He f*cked my mother. Still I love him. I don’t know why? He died at 65. M*therfucker!

Dear folks, people and friends!

You have found my satellite. Facebook is very cool. Enjoy your stay!

Ground control can be found on my website: http://theemperoroftexas.com/.

It's the place where I publish all my stuff uncensored. Fb is full of “commies”. One must balance the thin blue line as I call it.

It's where the Rumi of the 21st century shares his secrets with you, his alchemical entity called"the Ultimate Glitch".

It's where space and matter dissolves into love, into unknown umbilical spaces of more love. It's where Bukowski works and labors for mankind day and night. It's no joke!

It's where the best of the planet are highlighted, the ones with all the solutions, who have labored hardest and truly were I find my future spouses!

It's the Texian Space Port for your Soul!

A new entry coming up in a place near you soon! Made possible for you by the internet. If it was up to me we would all be living in Huts with an Internet connection. Thank you Bill Gates! The future is unclear. We must use it and make the world a better place!

Don't forget to read yesterday's entry. I got some sorting out to do!

Thanks for reading and listening, sharing, and friending! dear readers, musicians, lovers, friends, babes, gurus, devotional nuts like myself, future spouses, intellectuals, designers, painters, sculptors, scumbags, real men!

It’s in Facebook’s notepad as well for the ones who are paranoid and hiding behind ip-numbers. Big brother is watching you. Don’t forget it! Together we can save the world! We're gonna burn them alive ‘the mechanical world view.’

The Rumi of the 21st century has taken some time for you lost souls.

It is through my hard work for mankind that these words are made possible and thanks to the Google web servers! Don’t forget: "”Your “sorrows’ are just particles of dust compared to mine.”"

Here it is the latest entry on the Texian Space Port for your Soul:

Yesterday’s feature: SHAD BLAIR

Listen carefully. This songs says it all. Shad Blair’s unique songwriting is top of the charts. He’s the new kid on the block.

Prisoner Of War

“Well he's staring at a bunch of papers wondering which ones to sign
Some say he can have the money if the others say he's lost his mind

He could really use the money cause he can't work anymore
His mind's too bent and his back's too broke. He says it's all caus of the war

He's having a beer and a cigarette It's not even twelve o' clock
When I walk in and, give him a hug and, we sit down to have a talk

He says you're looking more like your daddy son, each and every day
Boy, C'mon in and have a seat I've got some news that's comin’ home

Post traumatic stress disorder that's what the VA says I've got
I guess all them memories a’re finally stacked up from a war that everyone else forgot

I got this sickness down in my lungs son and my blood's running thin
Boy I think you're looking at the ghost of a Vietnam veteran

I've seen some good men go down and they say I'm the lucky one because I got to come back to town

It's been near forty years and I can't close the door
Just walking around in my own damn house as a Prisoner Of War

Yeah it's near forty years later, and there's another war in progress
There's stands another soldier with his own traumatic stress

He's driving a tank through the sand, watching all the destruction on the screen
He tells me it's all more like a video game with all the brand new technology

He says you know man I feel like I've aged twenty some odd years
It’s only been seven short months since I shipped my ass back over here

Cause they work us hard every day and night. And I'm finding out it takes a whole lot of work to cover up stuff that just ain't right

You know I’ve seen some good men go down like Birch and Chavez from the first tank battalion

You know it’s a crying shame caus they will never be a settled score
Cause no matter whether we live or we die… we'll always be… Prisoners Of War”

Don’t forget to buy his cd. Don’t let real art die. Show your appreciation.
