Have I Forgotten

[Mika]

Have I forgotten what, why,
Avatar means, matters to me?

Stripping away everything
distilling it back to the simple
the first reactions the initial
has anything really changed
or like life
have i just bogged it down
with weighted meaning and burden

From the start
on the night before,
perhaps even that day
I summarized life
as having become
nothing more
than a flat
two dimensional,
mindless grey
everything lost lack and luster
meaningless

Then that first pivotal moment
as after there was another
(finding you on the forums)
There in Brilliant, Bright, Lush
Living 3D Color
that lept off the screen
and made everything 'unreal'
in this world
become 'real' for the first time again
and this illusionary world
of repetivity and monotony
gave way to the fantastical
and all that was 'senseless'
was stripped away
and the only thing that made sense
pulled me in
into a living breathing exististance
of sheer imagination,
yet rooted so much so
in all the fundementals
Harmony, Beauty
"Bioluminecence"
Connection so profound
to the 'earth'; all things 'living'
and to each other
The Indigegenous traditional
the true spirituality
where no separteness
no individualism
no division
was permitted
My moment of adoration
of Neytiri
declaring "This didn't need to happen"
Echo, Echo, Echo
In this world
that had lost its way
and I could find none
to 'see' it
Then on Pandora, The Na'vi
understood
I AM ONE of those .. The People

See through her eyes
See through the eyes of another
See through my eyes
OMG I understood that
living in a world
where the rocks and stones
see more than humans
with each other

Feel her breath
feel her strong legs
I have always ...
the energy flowing inbetween
and all around us
only dreaming, longing
for others to 'feel'
the same,
to feel the life force
that unites and binds us

The natural elements
not regulated
to tourism disdain
parchment and parcels
of allotment
No on Pandora
unregulated, untamed
Pandora called my name

All that was lost
that had shriveled and withered away
despaired by our generations
apathy and stagnation
mediocrity
Re Evoked by the call to PASSION
and ACTION

AWAKENED
And all that I could say
so great a vision
to any around me
walking away
Inebriated that night
by this Elixer's
Intoxication
Don't talk
You don't 'see' me
You will not from this point forth
take this away
Not this time
no not every again, never
I could see and believe
in somethiing
once again
And now I knew for certain
one other 'Cameron'
saw it too
and brought it forth
into manifestation
Had given us all a 'rebirth'

Part II

Why can we not 'fly'
United
with 'sentinent' creatures
and with each other
Whare are we not 'united'
mated for life
in the intimate relationship
the deepest of heart, spirit, soul
connections

Why can we not 'save a life'
(or try too)
how many of us come together
and pray and sing for each other
in such moments
have we even tried itor do we just not bother
or remember
We weep united for Home Tree
yet have we yet truly
united to rebuild it?
Or are we just pretending
seeking sanctuary
but not carrying it forward.
How far would you go
to accomplish it?
Has any of us put ourselves on hold
the the higher greater purpose?
I sincerely doubt it!
We analyise it,
dicuss, debate it
like any hierarchical bureuratic democracy
Old patterns, outdated
old thinking, old ways
do not give way easily
So we struggle
grow weary, lost sight
lose patience
and like the 60's movement
we hesitate
we stall
fading out
like the others
nostelgic oblivion
doomed to consumption
corporation
materialism
and the curtain falls
once again
and the show ends
and we slip away
the momentum lost
to the ordinary
normalacy
of the illusionary
definition of reality
and once again
imagination
that couls free us
is defeated!

Till something else comes along
to entertain us.

Really in the final credits
we are no more or less
than any that proceeded us
Tis a shame truly
as so encompasing
multi-faceted layers
billions maybe even
were contained
with the length
of those few short frames.

But perhaps
but a few are a rarity
that can fanthom
that oceans unfanthomable
in a single word
or frame
can be contained
but most are content
only to see 'linear'
or the 'shallow'
few if any
but the rarity's
can see the layers
underneath
and in between

[Human No More]

I think most people here haven't forgotten .

That said, I'm really not sure of the idea of 'no individuality' - indeed, I'd say they have far more than many people.
As for lifemates, so true - so many people have got the wrong idea, and that makes me sad.
