"Pirates and Peacemakers (Whaleriding)" July, 2023 1. "Hipolita and El Pueblo (Bolivar´s Sparks)" Simon Bolivar was born in the Spanish-American colonies, making him less than a first-class citizen in some places, when he left to tour Europe in Spain and France, He´d lost his parents at a tender age and was raised by the African lady Hipolita´s Mungu Divine healing sound and attentive glance, Riding horses´ green engines and sailing to travel, Venzuela´s Simon Bolivar fell in love with Madrid´s Maria del Toro y Alaiza, Who didn´t survive the yellow fever in Caracas that left Simon sadder, but not yet wiser.

Chorus: There were hard knocks, deep wounds, and tears as an earthquake shook, Opening Nature up and taking an honest look, With Divine Love´s Amor de Dios´ Great Banquet healing sound inside Pachamama Gaia, and all around Hipolita and El Pueblo planted mustard and bean- frijole seeds of all colors navy white, red, black, and brown, Building Incan grass bridges, puentes, from town to town, For green engines, growing minds, bodies, souls, and robust birds and trees young and old, and Latin American dreams, sueños, Where Bolivar´s sparks lit the ground (3x), Iluminaran la tierra,

verse 2 That was the start of hard knocks, deep wounds, and tears that turned Simon´s mind to runaway things, Hipólito Ruiz Lopez studied plants and also knew Humboldt, who asked Bolivar, “Who can free them there?” as a good friend, Rodrigues Robinson, helped Simon see what a secure imagination possibly brings,

verse 3 Since Jefferson and friends and the melting pot Marblehead sailors did American revolutionary things before the Bastille, like abolition Franklin, Clarkson, Afro-AME Rev Allen, and Marg Fell, so that later Beethoven got angry when Napoleon crowned himself Emperor that also disppointed Bolivar and Robinson, who climbed the Alps into Italy, Portugal´s AR Ferreira in Brazil´s Amazon forest, while Mexico´s chemist AM Del Rio looked for metal in mines, Native healer Sganyadiyo had visions, and Germany´s Wilhelm Herschel had his eye in a British telescope looking at new planet Uranus near Watts´ steam engine, Moses Mendelsohn, Blake´s "satanic mills," and Frankenstein Mary Shelley´s philosophical mom, by the time Bolivar´s crew paid tribute to the underdogs at the Roman Sacred Mount, getting set a little more freed,

"Hipolita and El Pueblo (Bolivar´s Sparks)": original, long version Simon Bolivar left the Spanish colonies to tour Europe in Spain and France, He´d lost his parents at a tender age and was raised by the African lady Hipolita´s Divine healing sound and attentive glance, Riding horses´ green engines and sailing to travel, Venzuela´s Simon Bolivar fell in love with Madrid´s Maria del Toro y Alaiza, Who didn´t survive the yellow fever in Caracas that left Simon sadder, but not yet wiser.

Hard knocks, deep wounds, and tears turned Simon´s mind to runaway things, Humboldt asked, “Who can free them there?” as a good friend helped Simon see what a secure imagination possibly brings, By leading strong and thinking clear as an earthquake shook, Like the monk Manuel da Nóbrega mixing Native kids and orphans from Portugal in a little Great Banquet, Simon saw how to give Na ture and a New World an honest look, If the Buddha, Sganyadiyo, Gandhi, Fannie Lou, Einstein, John Muir, and FDR had been there Like Jesus the Son, Cabeza de Vaca, de las Casas, Theresa d´Avila, Antonio of Lisbon and Padua, Bezerra de Menezes, Chico Xavier, and Divine Love´s healing sound, they would have and did care,

Chorus: There were hard knocks, deep wounds, and tears as an earthquake shook, Opening Na ture up and taking an honest look, With Divine Love´s Great Banquet healing sound inside and all around Hipolita and el pueblo planted mustard and frijole seeds of all colors navy white, red, black, and brown, Building Incan grass bridges from town to town, For green engines, growing minds, bodies, souls, and birds and trees young and old, and Latin American dreams Where Bolivar´s sparks lit the ground (3x)

verse 2 As Jefferson and friends and the melting pot Marblehead sailors in the American Revolution, Portugal´s AR Ferreira in Brazil´s Amazon forest, and lawyer-scientist José Bonifácio, and then visionary Native healer Sganyadiyo all started to cook, Germany´s Wilhelm Herschel had his eye in a telescope giving the British sky near James Watts´ steam engine and new planet Uranus a look, Hipolito Ruiz Lopez followed Benito Fejóo´s lighting and studied the flowers and trees near Atahualpa´s Incan grass bridges and Peru´s Macchu Pichu, Later, Beethoven saw Napoleon crown himself Emperor and ripped his Napoleonic symphony in two, Also disappointed by Bonaparte´s coronation, Bolivar and Rodriguez Robinson climbed the Alps into Italy, And paid tribute to the underdogs at the Sacred Mount, getting set free.

Verse 3 Manuel Torres discovered a fossil giant sloth in San Martin´s Argentina said France´s Georges Cuvier, Darwin later read about that little sloth, but first Napoleon´s deep sweep of royal Europe led to the 1810 coup in Caracas along the way, Bolivar didn´t want any kings or slaves and became the Liberator in Mérida with betrayed old salt Miranda lost, With the power of appreciation, Africa´s Haitian Petition and adoring heroine lady Manuela gave Bolivar forces to fight at cost, And they lasted past Sucre´s leading victory, like Chile´s O´Higgins, in the mountains of Ecuador´s equatorial Andean light, The fruits of Bolivar´s hopes and may have been eaten up by caudillo bosses, but Hipolita and el pueblo planted mustard seeds and built Incan grass bridges for green engines and Latin American dreams as the sunrise and seeds go with the seasons, again and again, with lessons to be learned into the day and night,

Bridge verse 3 Some people say, “Things can´t change.” Some people say, “You´ll lose if you try to rearrange,” Some confuse how they feel and choose free will and reality, Some make dreams come true in the potential of the ever-loving truth of sustainable possibility

"Lemonade Stand Sundrop Soup (Apple of Hwang Ming´s Eye)" original, long version Panda bears, bamboo trees, and the Yangtze River aren´t too far from Dezhou City´s laboratory Test tubes, metalwork, gasoline, petroleum, a concerned citizen or family member might get a little uneasy, Ever since back in the US, Titusville and Texas, before Aramco and Mossadegh, chicken-pecking oil pumps have made treasure chests of money, All kinds of oil spills like the Torrey Canyon and Valez, fumes, and smog clouds can make you feel kind of funny, Sipping egg drop soup, take a look at engineer Hwang Ming and his Liang Jun-type wife´s little girl the apple of his eye, Suddenly you see her and take a hard look, that little baby in daddy´s arms, like a little bird covered in oil tar that just wants to be able to fly, You have to ask the question, will a little bird dripping with oil tar and gummed up wings live or die?

Verse 2 A long time ago, a sweet little boy Zhu Yuanzhang was a little bird born to a poor farm family, Too little food, not even egg drop soup, brothers and sisters given away, too many mouths too feed Too sad too feel, a famine struck, and só few survived the only family left was Zhu and his brother, Zhu went to a Buddhist monastery, but the cupboards were só bare he ended up on his own and begging from others, Then, back with the monks, Zhu could recall the apple of his war vet granddad´s eye, while fighting was all around, Zhu saw an army in all the unkind lessons of history and inhumanity tear the monastery down, Mandate of Heaven, Zhu could lead not unlike the Mongol conqueror Genghis Khan, With Red Turban, White Lotus, spirit, brain, and brawn, Zhu was a little bird from a monastery who became the Hongwu Emperor who led the defeat of the reigning dynasty Yuan.

Refrain/Verse 3: Confucius, Buddha´s Haiyun, Jesus´ Alopen Xian, Muslim Mashayihei, and Lao Tzu´s Dao De Ching, All colored China´s long history from the I Ching to Shao Lin, Red Chamber, tea, spheres, Sun Yat Sen, and Jeet Kun Do Bruce Lee´s much loved shooting star all over the world from Hong Kong to San Francisco to Taipei to Beijing, God´s multicolored coat and prodigal son love from Joseph to Jesus to Gandhi to Thomas Aquinas, from Universities in Paris to Shanghai, all turned and churned to Bell Labs and NASA´s solar highness, Jimmy Carter´s solar White House, Danish co-op and Spanish wind teamwork all converged with a cloudy German Buergerwindpark solar panel peak, and American interfaith power and lightness, Japan came along with Hokkaido citizen wind and their own solar song, while earlier in China Deng Xiao Peng had been dazzled in the 1970s US when he said, “What a glory it is to be rich for all,” Now, I look over to Gandhi spinning thread, and how Sierra Club John Muir had seen how many trees fall unheard by the herd who need to hear people like the bodhi-tree, multicolored coat, and mustard seed say, “Get up and do the right thing and heed the nurturing and protective (Mother Gaia´s call) 3x, The spirit of Africa´s boy wonder, jerryrig mechanic Mike Kamkwamba with his junkyard wind turbines, is like Fannie Lou Hamer´s Farm Co-op, and they all share the same grassroots enlightenment as Hwang Ming´s backyard lemonade stand for the apple of his eye, powered by drops of you-can-keep-refilling sunshine

"Ocean Breeze (Soulful Voyages on Darwin´s Beagle)"

V1 ///// Walking down a street in Chicago, Atlanta, or Madrid in Spain, Might be like imagining Darwin and Emma strolling in Rio de Janeiro, South Africa, or south of the desert in Chile in the sun or rain, ///////

Chorus: We are living in the past, The future is coming up in a hurry so very fast, The present is where you can heal with the beyond, you can feel the biggest pond, you can feel the ocean breeze, 2x (In our faces, you can choose Divine love for you and me Shining out, and Shining all around Like Buddha the enlightened one, Elijah the cave and crow prophetic run, and Jesus the Son Good Samaritan, Fannie Lou Hamer, Gandhi, and all Spiritual liaisons,) ///// Feel the ocean breeze As we´re sailing on the seven seas / living by the mountain creeks / listening to how the prairie dog speaks / the city lights transform antiques //////

V2 ///// Sailing on the open ocean on the two-masted Beagle from place to place, Darwin had read how a Frenchman´s and Spaniards´ eyes put 2 and 2 together to look a giant sloth in the fossil face,

V3 ///// You look around and you can see so many words used in so many ways, ///// by so many people treating the world like they can just throw it away ///// Is it not sacred? Divine Love makes you and me worth it ///// Is that not all sacred? //// In ecosystem human misdeed breakdown we won´t make it, baby steps and elbow grease us and them, you and I, spiritualized, we need to save it, we can do it.

“Pirates and Peacemakers (Whaleriding)”

The Royal Navy got Henry Every who learned to fight, sail, and work in a crew, Then he went into selling human cargo until the privateers had contracts for people like him to do,

Chorus: Not everybody was born with a silver spoon If the Sun won´t shine then you may have to take the moon, Desperation tears, seeking Higher Love, the invisible Sun, the bodhi tree, and the mustard seed all around, in the Great Beyond, and on the inside, Let pirates make peacemakers, people on a higher ground, and you with their Inner Light and Love Divine, Walk the plank to take a plunge like an Olympic dive, To find a new open mind way to come up for air On a wing and a prayer, Take a deep breath and a few more On wings of angels, and go for a whale of a ride,

V2 - The silver spoon upper crust profiteers owned Henry Every´s ship, but left the crew in a foreign port to rot and waste away, waiting for their fate, The men´s ladies organized, but the shady fat cats didn´t lift a finger só in mutiny some crew flew the skull and crossbones on the renamed good warship fancy and it became Long Ben Every´s pirate crews´ day,

V3- North of Big Ben´s big city, Quaker Friend George Fox founded a new soulful Jesus Prodigal Son spiritual path as he walked into and looked around like some Enlightenment era Gandhi or Maori Paikea riding the whale in the ocean, or Anthony of the Desert monk and wondered about all the fuss, George Fox heard his inner voice, inspired many like Marg Fell, as his lion-hearted puss in boots skeleton key began to unlock people´s chains in abolition clearing the smoke and air by kicking up the dust,
