Sunshine Singularity
I awake in the morning to the sound of birds,
The curtains draw, the daylight warms,
On TV the news, relax and lay back,
welcomed to the day by the usual flack.
Ads for stuff I'll never need,
Interspersed with an outside feed,
A riot, kids without a home,
Hunted down by a friendly drone.
More ads for stuff I don't desire,
Mixed with stills of things on fire,
Violence, kids without a hope,
Playing angels, fearing no one....
I'm a citizen too, but what can i do?
It's the corporate's role to crowd control.
So give me news of awesome things,
Smack-down robots, contain this disorder....
It's a choice they make, they reject and scream,
I've heard they're all criminals, dealers and theives
What's the problem with a simple chip inside your head?
In space, in time, in state of mind,
In look, in love, in all that's mine,
I recognise the mechanised inside this neat duplicity
In hope, in life, in a state machine,
a loop, a IF, in a while I'll be,
In Sunshine Singularity, and want for nothing more....

Ad Astra
Why ask me if I'm worried
I'm always keen, you know
You're the one who makes a fuss
when it's time for me to go
I'll be back soon, before you know
The mission has a simple goal
I'm in good hands, they bring me down
If I ever lose control
(counting down)
Seconds left take days to pass
I never tire of launch control
The last and first voice I will hear
During this celestial stroll
Cleared to go, the engines fire
Kicked in the chest by gravity
Looping up to heavens high
In seconds darkness holds me

Silicon Junkies
Everything to a power of two
From drawing board to me and you
The rush of progress outputs an impossible decay
Everywhere we look we see
A mounting point, a pcb
The breeding of convenience and hunger for the Moore
Chorus:
Sil-i'con......-junk-ees
Everytime we change our ways
A gesture to a cleaner waste
The push for profit renders us incapable of common sense
Everywhere we plant our flag
An outpost for the cast aside
The fortune from the metalloids will surely justify

Flesh and Bones

Flesh and Bones
Flesh and bones in slow decay
My sensors wired to everything
Yet all these shapeless shades of black, keep me in the dark
Awakened from the deepest sleep
My senses fooled by everything
All these subtle shades of black, leave me in the cold
Silence veils the main event
With hardly time to move, I'm thrown
a violent crack and worst case shakes me to the bone
seriously, too close for me
My dented pride and bloodied flesh
All my subtle twists and turns, have failed to rescue me
With hardly time to breath, I'm gripped
a final move, my best laid plan
mortality.... too dear to me
Trained to do and think in steps
I realise the pointlessness
All these walk-throughs in my head, don't seem to cut it now
Racing, looping, facts and stats,
Crowd my head and fight it out
All these dials don't register, don't seem to change a thing
Everything! a critical sign,
At least that's something I've achieved,
All the training and the drills, I have to take control
Finally all lights turn red,
Decision made, it's time to leave
Is there no way I can make it home? ...what's wrong with this telemetry!?
With hardly time to think, I'm paused
a violent calm, I'm left to hang
humanity....too far from me
I run the gauntlet to the lab
Experimental signs, ignored
Lift the safety, flip the switch
this IS an emergency

One Time Machine

One Time Machine
DNA spins in a moment of time
RNA twists to assist
DMA speeds to a remedy blind
IRQ trips to the wires
ETA nobody can be so sure
CGI colours the grey
CPU shift on a series of bits
MMU coils to delay
LED blinks make me think in the now
FTL soon to be taking a bow
BPS kicks at the tips of my toes
ECG panics in lines as I go
PSU shakes as it juices the wires
EMP dances in nano-sized fires
JIT here in the future they sell
QED no more to tell
The cogs and the wheels, the pulleys and string
The theory and practice for making it spin
The fine grain resolved to a spilt hair of time
The notion of motion, the drawing of lines
The parallel trouble for Aubrey De Grey
The bending of present to future today
The old and the new meet in steampunked extremes
The singular moment of man and machine.

Eniac's Ghost

Eniac's Ghost
(Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer)
Wired for notions, waiting for sounds
Taking a moment to process
All that I've ever seen, all that I've ever been
Lost in a theory, a meaning profound
Designed for the future, paused by the past
Taking it all into memory
All that I've ever known, all that I've ever shown
Lost in a concept, a measure, a mask
Supplanted, improved upon, worthless to most
Left to nostalgia with Eniac's ghost
Abandoned and buried, useless and tired
Barely a signal, down to the wires

Gravity
======
English words:
If I don't get to feel some gravity, I think I'm going to lose my mind.
Polish words:
Grawitacji zew
ogarnia mnie
Pogrążony wciąż
w tym gwiezdnym śnie
Relatywistyczna pustka
niczym całun
Gdy tak szepcze do mnie
ja już wiem, tak wiem
Translation:
The call of gravity
overwhelms me
still lost
in that stellar dream
Relativistic emptiness
like a shroud
When it whispers to me
I already know, Yes I know

Friend or Foe

Friend or Foe
Split decisions hurt my head
they dance around improbably
weighing up your difference
is where I need to be
Tentative and carefully
tip-toeing possibility
entangled in your energy
a trip will fuse these lines
Quick decisions hurt my head
bound and gagged with consequence
objectives change with every beat
the place I need to be
Perspective locked, I count to three
A risky move endangers me
but information overload's
my biggest threat right now
Judgement skewed by gravity
or lack there of, to steady me
can't acquiesce or walk on by
the man I need to be
So tell me are you playing me?
I really need to know
I have no time for paradox
So are you Friend or Foe?

Everything is Light
Nothing starts and nothing ends.
Everything in symphony
Celestial & motioning
Driftin in the void.
Nothing here - out of place.
Everything in unison
Heavenly and organised
Purpose from the void.
Energy is everywhere
Everything is light
Sun rays bursting as we turn
Brightness to the night.
Nothing but my state of mind.
Everything is calm outside
Beautifully fractured streams
Glisten in the void.
Energy is everywhere
Everything is light
Sun rays bursting as we turn
Brightness to the night.

Back To Earth
It's all my own stupidity,
The grandest plans,
The details which where lost on me,
Apparently.
Well you were right to fight with me,
This hair-brained scheme
so nearly was the end of me,
Repeatedly.
Can't promise that I'll listen,
When you tell me all the things you want me to know,
I'll be on a different world,
Lost to simple thoughts,
Your touch, your smell, your taste
It's all I need to bring me back.....to Earth.
I'll make it up to you,
To show my love,
Say thanks to the grace
of all who still watch over me,
Carefully.
Didn't tell you I was sorry,
Or say I was wrong,
It all came out before,
You gave me the change to explain myself,
Regretfully.
Can't promise that I'll listen,
When you tell me all the things you want me to know,
I'll be on a different world,
Lost to simple thoughts,
Your touch, your smell, your taste
It's all I need to bring me back.....to Earth.
