The Soil

Nothing in this life matters...... but just the basics , our day to day living spills over with indulgence, the illusions that we create that we live by, slowly blinds us from our true purpose, from birth we are given the institution of consumption trained to take in more than we project we are like conscience black hole mirrors only reflecting what we see what we choose as our reality, though mentally this neediness may vary, but us as a whole as one energy we only are as powerful or powerless, than the ones that surround you , all that we acquire to breath is all around us, there is much life to be found in the dirt in the soil this is what advocates our growth and our ability to live, it is the most simplistic things you can think of, just looking at a bird flying through the sky, a blossomed flower, water reflecting, the taste of hot food, feeling when the sun shines on your skin, the touch from someone, a kiss a hug, the smell of candle burning , and so on ...... our five and for some six senses we must trust to lead us but not over consume our divine spirit and mind, balance will free us, so as you stand in the garden/earth put your hands/mind in the soil and know that this all you need and then............. live.      -AM

Seeing through

Truth

Virtual Vacate

Lethal Weapons

Our minds are more powerful than any weapon that it has manifested and materialized in this side the of the universe, the ones that have master this equation of words over the centuries have passed down their repugnant  ideology through generations and have used it to hinge upon the lesser minds instilling the need to wield a tool to destroy and compensate for their lack of awareness, setting in stone the blinded temple of corruption and fear , creating a foundation that is unsustainable and predictable, we are the predators of our time and just like the prehistoric age our minds are virtually no bigger than the oblivious creatures that once walked this earth , in truth we are great ......the great destroyers .   - A. M.

Rhythms

As I lay in the depths of silent hearts, my fears rest not far in the distance holding the tear stained stone of broken hearts, as the force that remains with in holds them at bay , I make to the sky I run for the hills for shelter , though I search for a light of redemption, I humbly continue on to try and restore the lost rhythms that I selfishly taken , my heart beats still through the music is it enough to replace what has been misplaced ...........  I remain within the rhythms and the music keeps playing .......... 

The Fire still burns ..

Gypsy Tattoo

Got to do this fun Gypsy tattoo today

The Cup

As my day comes to a close my thoughts refrain to cease , but it's a familiar comfort , an opportunity if you will, to put in text in transition of my mind . much has come to realization in present time , as they do I have these small blocks of experiences resulting in a body from mind evaluations of situations , trying make out the purpose the meaning , searching for the blind truth , I myself like many others at times feel the void and we tend to create a fantasy that only deepens that feeling , maybe we focus too much on the wrong things to full fill that absence that has over powered and disconnected us from our own energy , in turn distorting your current reality , I try to see my life and just life it self and others existants, with in a spherical train of thinking this helps my perspective of comprehension , So as I feel that I am half empty, that there is a void , the reasons of me feeling this way are the same for everyone else on every single level of positions , meaning someone with less may value more of the smaller things but fantasize about things they may not have like possessions , and the other side of that one may be in abundant of another's fantasy , but may still feel that exact feeling of something missing . Naturally this is part of our nature of thinking because our environment or maybe It is a gift that we have to be forever seeking in our minds to feel a balance our cup must be half full and half empty in the middle of this is where we find ourselves where we find our purpose , validation of our own being , in the mist of this madness and confusion and fantasy , my avoidance of what is and what is to be has led me to a better understanding of my "cup" and I have the power to fill it with balance and not to over engage with my actions of over indulgent's into fictional destinations of mind and being , I take my ability to see and let it keep me , though the battle rages on I am dexterous, my quick witted mental can only prevail. I am my cup of I am .  .....and then there's the heart ..........................................          A.M.

Awesome Song !

Cause and Affect

I got to do this Tattoo on my cousin Cynthia the other day , the funny thing about being a tattoo artist is that I sometimes find myself seeing the relevancy from a tattoo that I'm doing to my own life, that's always been a kind of weird but rewarding thing for me, as I'm helping someone get past or remember a current situation or feeling that they are going through in their lives by tattooing them with whatever the tattoo may be to symbolize that feeling at the same time I'm helping myself, This quote about getting back what you put out or project , is a very powerful combination of words and I am a believer of this , and I like to take it even more so on a broader perspective and that is what you give to the earth and the universe you will get back and that is energy your existants you choose your out come even if the affects of your causes are not yet visible to your own eyes - A.M.

Timeless

I tattooed this on a lady that was 66 years old she was in the navy back in the Vietnam war .

?

My journey through life has taken my roads along the way I've encountered many heart pains many smiles , I've experienced love and the desperation that comes from it and felt the rage that manifest form the exchange of mental projections, physical connections , dilated pupils of soul connecting eyes , with all these many paths of   pain , we must learn to embrace our dark shadow that we create so that we may find the light , I'm not of perfection nor is any other, my heart bleeds the same , my tears flow just as my mind feels the pain, confusion does not stray far ........to many thoughts can't finish ...TBC

The explosive calm

One month Ago today I took these photos It was a almost perfect setting with moon being shadowed by the clouds and as the fireworks went on I couldn't help but to think how I my self  relates to this scene , with the calm and cool moon in clouds this seems to be what I display on my exterior, but inside my heart and mind it is like a fireworks show going on mixed with multiple levels of thoughts and emotions happening as the cool mind of moon sustains the outside . I am the explosive calm . A.M.

The Origin

I'm The originator of thought my greatness is more than just a road, it is a highway , my being is more than just a existence, it is a ever driving force . I'm more than just a hidden mountain of energy, I'm calm but powerful volcanic piece of earth with pyroclastic thoughts, I'm a simple man with a complex mind, with the heart of a 20 foot soul a product of the universe of God's creation , I'm a traveler of life searching for the origins of lessons of knowledge, I am a dreamer I am the origin of my destiny  - A.M.   

Displaced

This song takes me to a whole different place and time... yea

Endless

          Our endless mind and power , the capacity that we hold is beyond sometimes on a level that we are not ready to grasp ,our habits of over analyzing situations possibilities outcomes repercussions consequences, separates our body from mind in turn unconscionably manifesting fear and doubt feeding the ever spiraling keeper of fleeing time ,Possibilities are not limited to ones experiences , virtually anything is achievable , depending on ones ability to not limit their self from perspectives that have not yet materialized within their own grounds, rather a broad spectrum state of mind will suffice through mental, spiritual and acceptance awareness , when done so using your ability to visualize mental equations come binding mind and body to realize endless calculations and excepting them to achieve infinite Possibilities. ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES -  A. M.

A vision of a near future night , in time it is still left for destiny .

The Battle For Infinite Passion (Love)

Loving and fighting are but two different words, even opposing each other’s meaning. But when those two come together as one, they become different- a rather worthwhile, wonderful thing- fighting for love. Nonetheless, we seldom perfect out battle for love. We seldom master the way we treat love. We seldom know how far we should go, or when we should already stop. We actually can never tell what’s right from wrong when we’re loving, and so we get confused on whether we should keep fighting or start moving to the opposite direction.

Fighting for love…. How is that supposed to be done? How are we to know if we are fighting for the right person? That is rather tough to know. Nevertheless, we don’t think that way when we are on the process of fighting. We ask ourselves, “How do I know she/he’s the one?”, and then find ourselves answering back, “I just know.”

Yes, that’s just it. “You just know.” Because when we love, we think of what feels right, not of what we know is righteous. We feel it in our gut that we’re doing the right thing- for the moment, for our lives, for our happiness. We fight for love because we know that winning the battle is what would make us happy. We fight for love not because we “know” it’s worth it but because we “feel” it’s worth it.

True, it is, that we must be certain that we are facing a battle for all the good reasons, for all that’s best for us, for love. But how can we know? How do we know? Love is the most wonderful yet the most difficult thing in the whole, wide world to ever define or even just recognize. Nonetheless, we go on with hurting ourselves, inflicting pain on ourselves. We invest too much with and for love because we “feel” that no matter what, it will all be worth it- because we “feel” that we love the person. Yes, we don’t know if we are in love with the person… We feel that. And sometimes, “feeling it” means more than anything else. It means more than what people would think of you. It means more than making a fool out of yourself. It means more than lying and doing all the worst things you could ever do for love. It means turning your back to everything else in the world but love because you are certain that for whomever you are fighting, may you be right or wrong, in the end, it will be your decision that will prevail among anything else. Fighting for love is a decision we make. Thus, whatever the consequences, we will have to face them… During and after the battle. It could be beautiful, it could be harsh. But in the end knowing that you gave it your all will be all that matters reguardless if you been heart broken . A.M.

The Floating Heart

Vulnerable Heart

So it seems that the silence of a open heart tends to find it's self in the dark while the loud an heartless speak over the vulnerable and tender, the vicious cycle swirls its self unforgiving destroying fresh new tender hearts cursing them with doubt and fear, witch was the innocent now unconscionable  becomes the beast devouring the  vulnerable. ........... Why is it that we as people find it so hard to love, well maybe a uncountable number of hearts have been stepped on and torn to shreds, so now this cycle repeats its self the broken become the breakers ,outcome  everyone is sooooo afraid to trust to love again, so unfortunately our cursed human nature compels us to surround ourselves with things and people that cater to our broken hearts we intoxicate our minds with the same thing that what was probably part of the source of our dis-positioned heart is where it is now. But there is hope for us because there are still light hearted souls floating around in the silenced night waiting to be shined upon, there are broken ones too not far behind waiting for someone to mend their heart and soul,  it's a war with in it's self and I'm still fighting and the only way is to do so with a open heart other wise I will continue to feed that beast that thrives on my own self hinderedence . My vulnerable heart.....  A.M.

Window To Your Soul

Through the eyes , of ones soul I found a place,....a place where my heart and mind were safe , as our windows to our soul connected ....., intertwined with passion and fire, her kiss made my blood burn and my heart play a beat of a new tune and jazzed my mind making me lose grip of time , everything she my be , my thoughts thought to me, like a fluttering butterfly she slowly drifted , until my out of my reach , the blind fold of time, the history of mine , stifled by this , restricting the path in front of he, resulting of the hearts of they, to lose it's way , lost by unsaid expressions by numbered questions , He who that holds ones key retains a memory , of a smile , a kiss , caressed thoughts and body with soft finger tips ,connecting eyes full of paralleled destiny's , passionate thoughts shared mixed with never ending desires, breath of our souls we conspired ,................ through ones eyes, through the windows to your soul , I exist  .     A.M.....            

Awesome song....

Confilct of mind

Some times it takes someone to love you to make you realize how much of a mess your are , all your unintentional actions become you, and you find yourself in a spiraling circle of mindful and unmindful thoughts ,over analyzing separating your body from your mind , all while innocent minds bear the burden of your conflicted mind you continue to project all of yourself and nothing of yourself equaling into a unpredictable and a perceived being , until you realize what has been sustaining you has also been consuming you , your conflicted mind , allows you too express your soul from deep within but also confines your most truest thoughts, in the end the awaking reality shines it's dangerous face upon your heart realizing a balance must be set in stone .To achieve acceptance of freedom within your mind and heart.  A.M. C/S   L.B.

“Weapons of Mass Destruction” is a phrase that has been quoted through out our history it has shaped our past and molded our present , the future is ours to sculpt if we choose to , to do so we must reshape our minds into a different state, a mental of progression through creation , to rise above what has been condition to us from the beginning of fabricated institutions. Let’s move forward and start with a new chapter and rephrase  weapons of mass destruction to WEAPONS OF MASS CREATION ! A.M. C/S
