Speak
Walk
Free
Talk
Shout
Scream
Earth steams
White line
Inside
We’ve learned to fly

Mycellium
in helium
convenience
in seeds we send
a tree to them
which frees the zen
and we will see
we’ll see with them

Cerebral twins
are freed within
we journey to the outer rim.
We have no needs
no limits then
the wisdom of the stars
they send.

The body can speak
the body can talk
the body can fight
the body can walk
the body can be
a growing tree
the body can’t lie
it wants to be free

a thousand tunnels
to a tunnelling town
behind an atom
the madness frowns

total colour, total dark
description of a meteor arc
drunken and reeling
questing for reason
there is no more feelings
just bodies be fleeing

minds left behind
left inside and beside
we divide into three forms
and then start to ride

up high on a north star
cloaks clouds and steams
of neon flame curtains draped free across fields
we hold and release to the infinite wreath

a gesture so pure now
as we gaze down beneath
a single new word that emerges in time
a single pure word that contains its own rhyme
the body can stand on the edge of a light
with dust clouds and lazers
that cut up the night

a peace sign, a circle
that looks round every way
you could see it from anywhere
in the whole milky way

The body can speak
the body can talk
the body can fight
the body can walk
the body can be a body tree
but the body can’t lie
it wants to be free

Aphelion

about

Jody Barton Copenhagen, Denmark

Jody Barton was born and raised in the UK near London and now lives in Copenhagen. His rowdy and eclectic music calls to mind the post-punk and anarcho folk of Crass, Ian Dury & The Blockheads and just a little bit of Tim Curry. His latest project ‘Morris Maroon & Other Ballads’ is an open-ended work in progress both as a solo live set and recorded album.
