From Mark von El-Whalerider´s second album collection Put Your Soul Where Your Mouth Is “Black Elk´s Vision (Free)”

The Rainbow Warrior came around some years after Black Elk Hehápa Sápa the Oglala Lakota who was a cousin of Crazy Horse, Black Elk went on Buffalo Bill´s Wild West European Tour where he saw a little more and wouldn´t want to ignore what cars on roads and train tracks galore were for, And that after 1627 wild cattle aurochs were worse off than American buffaloes and were zeroed out, extinct, and no more

Chorus: Black Elk fought at Little Big Horn that was Custer´s Last Stand, Then later he lent a hand at a place called Wounded Knee at the Ghost Dance, Besides Buffalo Bill´s Wild West European tours, Black Elk´s vision helped him do cures as if you and me have a spiritual life that´s full of sacred opportune possibilities, and we can start to be The way a Higher Love can help you feel loved (and sad in grief and remorse that restores the joy like the man of steel inside setting a course, to help you feel loved,) that makes the Good Samaritan forgiven, A good friend, and no supervillain hostility, relaxed, at peace, and free with responsibility

(3rd time: A loving Father and Mother in the Great Beyond Happy Hunting Grounds, The leafy mustard seed son´s soulful living legacy that abounds, Buddha´s footprint of the elephant´s spiritual sounds, a Sacred Hoop, and a higher Flowering Tree, Black Elk´s vision helped him.....sacred opportune possibilities)

V2 I once got a book from the library and tried to do an Eagle Dance on the high school football and track and field, you should try it some time, and what would Black Elk´s first cure yield? With a pipe, drum, and herbs in the tribe and using his vision from 9 years old when he got sick, When Black Elk saw something that touched onto and went beyond navigator Chris Columbus to Pilgrim William Bradford, Pocahontas, and Squanto, all the way back to The Sorceror Stone Age Cave Painting in his soul´s mind´s eye and a Holy Man´s stick,

V3 For Black Elk things settled down with family and years in community with the Holy Cross to go with his Holy stick when he told poet John Neihardt about the vision when he was seeing Grandfathers like the Great Spirit free with responsibility, And Thunder Beings like angels in a sacred manner and sacred hoops in one big loop circle, while at the center was one great Flowering Tree,

From Mark von El-Whalerider´s second album collection Put Your Soul Where Your Mouth Is The Green Briar Ghost (Elva-Zona´s Song)”

Eddy was a new stud of a blacksmith who came to a Greenbrier small town and nobody knew who he was, Pretty Elva´s mom Mary Jane Heaster and everybody called her pretty daughter “Zona”, and Elva-Zona fell for the new stud blacksmith like a brick, just because,

Chorus: Some people say the Greenbrier Ghost was real, If you treat people and yourself pretty good, and do the right thing in a good rainbow of love, there´s nothing to fear, But if you or somebody wants to think life isn´t sacred, that nothing and no one can touch you or make your really feel, (Maybe you or somebody wants to say, 'They just made it all up, Because there´s no rainbow loving First Cause, no Higher Power, no Good Samaritan son, no angels, no reap as you sow moral karma law, no bodhi- Holy Great Spirit Flowering Tree) That it´s just you and me, from physics to biology, That we´re all only just actors playing good and bad guys in a film or show with big screen sex appeal, Then you might want to ask, 'Who wants to believe the Greenbrier Ghost wasn´t real?” Because some people say, “The Greenbrier Ghost was real.”

V2 A few years before 1900, big city Vaudeville shows might put on ghost stories like Shakespeare´s Lear or Dicken´s Scrooge, but not where pretty Elva-Zona eloped with studly Eddy because her mom Ms. Heaster didn´t like him, Then one day three months later, pretty Elva-Zona was found just lying there, because as her ghost later said, “Eddy wanted meat with his supper,” só now her body was lifeless as the wages of Eddy´s sin,

V3 Eddy had dressed up the corpose with a high-nicked dress, só Dr. Knapp said she died of “everlasting faint,” since Eddy had pulled a fast one, and the doc didn´t catch on, But in a few days, something drove mom Mary Jane to keep insisting on a second look, and in the evidential court records of the trial, it emerged in the accused´s cross-examination of the unswerving mom Ms. Heaster that a dead pretty Elva-Zona´s spirit was cold, but came back over 4 mights and told her mom, It´s kind of like a ghost-busting revelation about how appearances can be deeiving when glittering gold on steroids sees real world warning labels, and instead of a Fair Trade rainbow playground Green New Deal, says “Nothing´s wrong.” But the ghost of the truth inside you says, “Something´s wrong.”

From Mark von El-Whalerider´s second album collection Put Your Soul Where Your Mouth Is “Anthony and Cleopatra (Like Gods)”

Ancient Egypt was conquered by Alexander the Great from Greece, and then his generals feasted their eyes on pyramids by the River Nile, But Danger´s middle name wasn´t just crocodile, The new rulers of Egypt led to Cleopatra, whose family spoke Greeke, while her prince brother and princess sister started yet another Civil War and rant into even more trouble When Julius Caesar came to Alexandria-town from Rome and popped their little bubble, (soon to come was)

Chorus Anthony and Cleopatra Dressing up like gods, Against the odds, And who´s calling the shots

V2 Caesar took over and put Cleopatra on the Egyptian throne, Calpurnia was Julius´ wife back in Rome, but in Egypt, on top of great power there were temptations and passion to the extreme, só things got hot and heavy and Cleopatra had a son that was Caesar´s own, (and soon to come was)

V3 Years later it was March when Calpurnia had a bad dream premonition and warned her hubby Julius, but his buddy Brutus grabbed him until Caesar got stabbed in the back 28 times, Then Octavian, Caesar´s upstart grandnephew led the revenge uprising manhunt, but not long after his ally Mark Anthony married Cleopatra and divorced Octavian´s daughter, crossing danger lines, So that even though over by the Nile Anthony and Cleopatra had dressed up like Egyptian gods, They missed the point that Octavian Augustus was Rome´s top dog, grandnephew of Caesar, who had been made an imperial god up there with Jupiter and Mars So, even though Octavian had no Delphi Oracle, and was no Greek philosopher Socrates or Diogenes living in a jar, and didn´t know Joseph´s multicolored coat, Buddha´s bodhi-tree, or the mustard seed Good Samaritan son, Octavian was the one, Caesar´s adopted son, who was calling the Roman reap-as-you-show shots (So, there it was, to be or not to be, the power of Octavian´s navy at the Battle of Actium, A and C were short-lived and not to be...)

From Mark von El-Whalerider´s second album collection Put Your Soul Where Your Mouth Is “Never Far (Jumping Monkeys)”

Marco Polo set out from the Italy of the monk Thomas Aquinas with his buying and selling uncle and his dad, They had come back with Kublai Khan´s gold passport, then were going back and crossed Asian mountains like the European Alps barely had, The Polos arrived and introduced Marco to the Xanadu ruler Kublai Khan, Buddhist son of a mom Christian and dad fan of a shaman, Marco would earn and stash fabulous jewels, and saw Kublai´s elegant Queen Chabi, but he never got to meet the ancient monk Zang Xuan Bridge: But we can see Xuan Zang by seeking the mustard seed in the bodhi-tree´s story of the jumping monkey, who brags and leaps to distant mountains easily, but then the wise man opens his hand to reveal the reap as you sow plan

Chorus: Lotus flower power opens closed doors for you and me like it did for Xuan Zang Love hugs your fear like a key in the lock in the elephant´s footprint of the Buddha´s grow like a lotus, float like a butterfly gang, His soul got as thirsty as yours and mine might só that Xuan traveled far, Because he was looking the wise words that open hands, doors, windows, hearts, souls, and minds that shines and sprays fruits from the tree of life and a rain of seeds of heavenly light and original love juicy for jumping monkeys, you and me, wherever you are, never far

V2 The Kublai Khan and Queen Chabi could have told Marco Polo about Sakya Pandita from Tibet, a monk and a Buddhist, Because long after Xuan Zang´s journey to India and a wise owl, and back to China, Pandita had healed a Khan, lotus flower power that sent some calm to the virtually unstoppable conquering Mongol tribal mounted arrow-shooting fist,

V3 Xuan Zang was só spiritual he wanted to go away, but to get away he needed to slip away from the tight hold of a king who was a little bit mean, Xuan made it to India and back, even finally getting the King´s praise and support, a long time before Genghis Khan´s horse-riding archer boyhs of the steppe or Marco Polo ever crossed a Himalayan stream,
