i am the white hippy moses
yonder lies the land of soy milk n manuka honey
i am a stoned martyr of space rock
st steven the second
the time being
some name me the freckle faced killah
others invoke me as sk
sometimes nevets when things are in reverse
i have been sent to sing this lullabye for you
i am the alpha
and the centauri
i am also a virgo with type o blood
my drivers licence expires 22/11/2006 A.D.
i have escaped from the "straights"
and i lead my people across the desserts
and wilda-nesses
out of slavery to gossip mags, tv and boy bands
i have parted the sea of mundanity
these are the commandments of my decka-logue
1 thou shalt not kill or eat killed things
2 thou shalt turn off tv +microwave+gasguzzlah
3 thou shalt buy all my merch n dice
4 thou shalt send free space rock cds etc to po box 7779,
bondi beach, nsw aust2026 but probably get no thanx or
reply
5 thou shalt do yoga chi gong swim-swim n walk evareeware
6 thou canst smoke the sacramental herb whenever you like(baybee)
7 thou shalt attend enmore tivoli n whatever it is in mellbin(if poss)
8 thou shalt try n understand
9 thou shalt not worship actors
10 a big fat hen
i am anathema to unimaginitive turkeys
in my right hand i hold the bottle of grape juice
in my left i hold the fender bass
52 years in the southern hemisphere
my veneers have been blasted by the sun and wind
my methods are random n chance
a real idiot savant
i stumble around in sound
and come up with my humble offering
to the great ones gone before me
yer lennons
yer dylans
yer bolans n bowies
yer floydwinds n enos
yer harleys n nelsons n stranges
yer foxxes
yer krautrockers
yer youngsteens n tomverlainesmith
i am the intersection of all these things
where parallel lines do truly converge
ancient nineveh n magnetic fields
i am the anachronism
i am king midas sideways
i am the reasonable reason
the unanswerable answer
those who seek me are few yet well rewarded
a high n lonely destiny said the nephews magician
i have delusions of grandeur
i have an ipodd in a black rubber skin
i have it on now as i listen to mare vaporum
if you think youve heard space rock
wait till you hear mimesis my children
i am determined to explore other realms n possibilities
i do not, have not let feeble minded criticisers
sway me from my mission
i am an egotistical yet modest man
i am old yes but so much younger than most
i came into this world 13 9 1954 A.S.K
i have been around much much longer than that
so too you my flokk, if you could but beleave it
i am the summoner of racquets with my 4 string wand
i wander slightly ahead of the kick
i hover n i glide n i propel
i am the surrealistic pillar
i am the king edward lear with my five daughters
i am a lewis carroll on drugs
i am aseeking xanadu
i am a refugee from politics wars n fluoro office wasteland
i am the 1st son of a 1st son of a 1st son
i am a son of a gun and a son of a bitch
i love to talk about myself
i love to make grand pronouncements
i love to be loved
i hate to be loved
i hate to be hated
but i never love to be hated
i protest the right to do what i want with my own consciousness
i dispute anyone anywheres right to kill anything for any reason
i love space rock
i love naive painters
i love arthur rimbaud n dylan thomas
i love cs lewis n melvyn peake
i love the twilight zone n
manuel on the isle of marvels
i need subtlety sometimes
i crave fine thoughts n original thinkers
i am forgiven at last
i am trying
i am leading you towards....?
i am the white hippy moses
amen jewel

SK,
Confession time i am struggling, i'm only achieving about half the commandments.
will work on the tenth today!
DR
"those who seek me are few yet well rewarded..."
and what a reward it is!!! i am honored and priviledged to be amongst the lucky few. i've enjoyed being rewarded for the last 21 years, and hopefully will continue to be for the next 21.
long live the church.
nice one today, steve. however, you are oh sooooo much more complex than this. but then, how do you sum up somebody like steve kilbey??!?!?!!
lotza love.......
Well said. So be it! Amen.
Ok. reel him on in. he's definately dropped off the charts.
when i say charts i'm a meaning the latitudinal not billboardian.
Sail the sea's my son, you wild rover, i miss the hell out ah ya.

As you know, C.S. Lewis and The Magician's Nephew ruined me completely and utterly...that dreamy shaded formless forest and those ruins of Charn under the dying sun, ah....make your choice adventurous stranger, strike the bell and bide the danger, or wonder 'til it drives you mad what would have followed if you had.
Thank you for your guidance W.H.M., honestly, we'd be lost without you! I would have loved to have heard Charlton Heston belt out those commandments ha ha...much better than the original!
What's this about "if poss" in commandment #7???? If it aint gonna happen, please tell us and put me out my misery:(
(#4 could be asking for trouble....hee hee)
Have a beatiful day and try to enjoy Melby tommorrow (bring a jacket, it's going to freezing!!)

Friday Spanish lesson, I realize this is Saturday for y'all over thar...
i love to be loved
i hate to be loved
i hate to be hated
but i never love to be hated
amo ser amado
odio ser amado
odio ser odiado
pero nunca amo ser odiado
One more, indulge me!
i am the reasonable reason
the unanswerable answer
soy razon razonable
so la respuesta sin respuesta.
OH I SEE, your license expires so the bloggie goes away...ay no!!
Cee

i like the 10th commandment. perhaps it should be the 11th?
and craving original thinkers is probably my number 1 desire this time around.
love
miss grove
p.s. if that's your real p.o. box, i imagine that soon you will be inundated with space rocks (not from me, tho. if anything, i'd be sending some rarities from the madcap).
i am an actor Sk, and my ego has been tarnished by your commement.
Oh was that po boxie hint for me to send ya a painting?? Betta be the right address Kilbo.
Mattster
"Thanks Kevin Bacon!! Yeah And I am an actor too big K.
subtlety deciphered in every word this time
I am ... speechless, brother
thanks for yer love, brothers and sisters
amen moses
Inoue and Mare, Steve, you've been playing my language all week, it seems!
I'm not one to self-promote, ordinarily, but if you click on my site, there's a free podcast of everything ambient--Oöphoi, lots of nice stuff, think of it as a record swap from a stranger in the US, maybe even some things you don't know about yet. It's all very quiet.
Another one for The Vox to read on CD!
Over the years, I came to know a great many grownups. My opinion of them never improved. In time, I stopped showing my drawing, and never again mentioned boa constrictors, elephants, or stars - instead, I would talk about golf, money, politics, and neckties, and everyone was pleased to have met such a sensible man.
lov ya SK!!
where can i buy manuka honey, is it really that good?
i thought u might also have said,
'know that with one single fraction of my Being I pervade and support the Universe, and know that I AM.'
anyhow, keep leadin the exodus (movement of jah people) sk ...
~
Steven,
Why didn't you just ask me directly that you wanted more space music?!! I've got some more stuff that'll curl your cerebellum and float you outta your room. Walls melt, time suspends, OBE's, the whole nine yards. But you better devote an entire blog to me and how I have led you to previously uncharted spectral realms of ambient ecstasy. OK?
--Chris
n.p. Paul Vnuk Jr./Oophoi "Distance to Zero"
Amen!
Mike, you can get Manuka honey from Health Food or Organic shops. It's pretty good!
..she pointed up into the sky...
i got this new thing wher i focus on deep breathing while i read the blog ,...
starts to feel great ....
thanks for the special each day ..
you give us the best suprises ...
"i have escaped from the "straights"
and i lead my people across the desserts
and wilda-nesses
out of slavery"
someone caled me "straight edge" the other day
another said "God" wanted to forgive me, but couldn't
until i renounced my
self seeking ways
i dunno what I am
if i wasn't bald
....maybe i'd have long hippy hair
if i smoked dope
maybe i'd smoke dope
mostly i just lie around
sit or walk
and colour in the rest
with activity of
varying degrees
of enlightenment and/or ignorance
i have escaped from the
tyrants and have taught myself
(and maybe others in the process)
a better way
to live
does anyone listen
or care
who knows
just do what you do Steve
let we
the deluded gooseballs
enjoy your good company
and drink from the fountain of
nevets
i feel kinda cool and homey here
'tis a good feeling

Take a break and get away from it all. Take a Alaskan Glacier Cruise to rid the stress!
I'm having trouble with number 10....
but i like this hippy moses dude so far.
yesterday i re arranged my whole shedule, cancelled things organised dog sitter, work arrangements, all that jazz... thinking tonight was revsby, for some reason i was under a glamour, dead ceratain tonight i'd be heading off past the bends, outta my old comfort zone into the strange areas of western sydney i am unfamiliar with, and at 9 this morning i'm asking my friend how i get there, struggling with the complex directions which i instantly forget (but pretended i didn't), anyways it comes up in conversation that it's the 23rd not the 30th, to which i sink into a confused and somewhat frenzed search through calanders and diarys and scraps of paper to confirm i am totally out of the loop. now this aways happens to me before a church show, i am notorious for driving to venues a week before (never thank god after) the event. is there some syndrome associatted with this or should i start smoking more with the green goddess?

I got really imersed in that. It's Sunday pm an I'm just about to get my daughter a wizard dinner. Have grapejuice in hand reading blogge sun setting seen through window best watching the performance of the changing sky colour as the source makes it down in the western sky. It's spring and light against the leaves is golden. Birds make final preparations for evening nest with water and seed from my back yard.
Thanks Steve, sometimes you just hit the spot.

"i am anathema to unimaginitive turkeys

52 years in the southern hemisphere

pleasant journey to melb sk

Man o man of contradictions. (and we love him for it, ...the quivering bow that wants to shoot arrows at the stars).
Meanwhile, here at the Commune we sit around the fire like Borroloola philosophers with a back-blog of Carnegie culture and specualte on the greatness of human destinys. Who's in, who's great. He's ace that 'ol SK. our cause-celeeb, our inspiration. He's a different man with a different plan.
no contradictions at all, just many positions, ways, and moods ^_^
I remember (and rediscover now) how "The Time Being" was such an excellent song
lead us with your lullabies, Steven, to the unknown (like david lynch)
3 krautrock compilation dvd's coming your way soon,also television 'orkloft'and floyd 'KQED'dvd's.plus 2 or 3 'dudes of neptune'tracks. your feind as always,andy.
Shiite, i mean sunni, no i mean shit! I gotta send you another cd. Something Western not no unified field maharishi-ite thing that never get you saved. Me thinkin, me gonna send something inspiring....sometime....
And Adam and Eve his wife called upon the name of the Lord, and they heard the voice of the Lord. And he gave unto them commandments, that they should worship the Lord their God, and should offer the firstlings of their flocks, for an offering unto the Lord.
My, what a metronome of declaration. Anaphora at it's best. Where are you takin us, oh humble, benevolent egotistical sheperd of the 21st century wasteland? With cane and a crooked crow.
i am not a follower, nor a sycophant.
i am a leader in my two chosen fields. Breaking new ground. Pushing limits imposed by the closed. going, going...
i am attracted to depth, talent, meaning, and to like-minded souls.
i give credit where it is due, which brings me to this blog and these comments. i am sincere.
i am pleased to share this journey with nevets yeblik, and my fellow commentators.
i look forward to the journey, to seeing where it will lead. beyond the veils.

mosey on down, re the seventh commandment we will be at tiv and enmoor and yew mundee (tho thats a mebbe, still deep ends)
Amen to that. It is indeed a huge honour to be one of the few. Just glad to know the likes of you, brother.
It's almost time for my daily grace...need to follow #6!;)
Later Gater,
BV
Oh, shit. You just gave us your address.
You sure you want to do that?
And do you already have the Pink Floyd album "More"?
