transcending time
the approaching light
calls him by name

into the realms of before
the present waits to let go
of the past

readying him for the return
to his place with the stars
in the circle of dreams

he woke up in a familiar high
knowing it was time
to change dream worlds

waiting at the station
for his ride
enjoying the colors
in awe of the swirl and blur
in between dimensions

where dying to live
is different than dying to die
and continuation has no use
for beginning and endings
that traumatized lives
devote to fear

flying with the clouds
tracing the blue in the sky
out of reach
of within reach

distant trails of distant trials
dissolving in long forgotten tears
while the moon kissed the sun
and he was next in line

the stars threw him fire
knowing he loved the heat
pulsing from magic light
bringing him out of the shadows

Coyote Logics

John Trudell

You will be missed.

If you love something, set it free.
If it comes back to you, it is yours.
If it doesn’t, it never was.

Dedicated to the memory of a man who long before the advent of the interweb got out and made a stand. As a result he died one death when his wife and children were burned by arson in their home after a protest and following by the federal government. It's in the documentary above.


Before his death on December 8, 2015 the Coyote Logics written in the op were his last writing before his death in the Coyote's Lair as he called it and all except these words were written by him ...just said and quoted in the post.

"My ride showed up."

"Celebrate Love. Celebrate Life."

I'd say a good 50% of the things written on this forum were profoundly spoken of by him and he took it to the streets and to his heart even in death/rebirth.

I will be hereby adding some of the many videos and songs that we ALL SING here at Avalon and were spoken of in his voice on those streets that scar Mother Earth.

(for some reason, "graffiti" was misspelled in the title) with Kiowa guitarist Jesse Ed Davis (well known for recording with Bob Dylan, John Lennon et al.) that was originally available on cassette tape format only. This comports with the practice common to American indigenous and other so-called minorities of distributing music mixtapes captured live at group events and copied and distributed through non-commercial channels, like those of the San Francisco-based rock group Grateful Dead, Native American powwow music performances in general, and African American gatherings whence came the expression Each One Teach One, common also to an emerging grassroots movement that was arguably itself a response to the reactionary madness of slavery and/or military-industrial/imperialist hegemony flourishing in the 1980s.

Thank you Shadowself for this thread and putting all these vids in one place! I have only recently discovered him but his work and life speaks to my heart on a cellular level......

[Constance]

Thank you Shadowself. :heart:

I love that you nourish and nurture us by continuing to inspire us Shadowself with Johns work... and may that be reciprocated to you many times over.

Towards our liberty, our freedom, our lives.

I love you all. :inlove:

Remembering as a young girl I got tired of the library and wanted something more spicy to read. All the kids knew just where to go. Free Press building for all the latest underground news. This is where I first met John Trudell. He became a part of my life and heart then and remains there.

Joe and Breal!

Thank you! I have one more day to post for the three day honor. Two more subject and then I'll be finished.

Surprisingly many of the younger folks have never heard of him. My mate Lionhawk never heard of him till I presented him on Put a log on the fire thread. That was 7 days before he died btw. When he heard his poetry and messages he actually shed tears....(shhhhh).

So enjoy and it's just a way to honor him from me to everyone here. :heart:

Heartbeat

I hope you've taken something good from my three day honoring of Coyote Logics.

This will be my last honoring but I saved the best for last.

Feel free if you should run across anything else that strikes you.

Or simply enjoy what this warrior brought to the land.

This is however how I will see him today. Rockin the Res at the great gathering in the sky

Ancestor DNA


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ElrSS_f2-is



Listen to the skies, listen to the sound.
Something on the land,
Something going down.
Downpressers speeding by life,
fevers heart burning rivers to cross.
Walls of Babylon material noise
thinking they've touched the moon.
Freedom takes a rocket blast.
Just another day like yesterday.

Rockin' my heart, rockin' the Rez,
Woman like you, times like this.
All that's real connect to you
Happy medicine making me smile.
Seeing you laugh getting so near
Rockin' our hearts, Rockin' the Rez.

Carrying on like he ain't been gone,
War-maker's back, back in town.
His notion of taking care of us
not the same as, not even close...
Not even close to our notion of taking care of us.
Nowhere to ride, nowhere to run,
got no job and prices going up.
War-maker' back in town.
Just another day like yesterday.

Rockin' my heart, rockin' the Rez,
no chance we're gonna ever give up.
Together we'll dance
our personal dance.
Swee starts surrendering
only to each other.
These days holding the night.
Rockin' our hearts, rockin' the Rez.

Startin wars with the stars and
working on offing Earth,
what kind of future is that?
Some weird kind of living.
Who needs that lie?
Pretending we aren't stars too,
really isn't very bright.
Earth Stars
with jail break in our hearts.
Just another day like yesterday.

Rockin' my heart, rockin' the Rez,
woman I want, woman I need.
Times when times do get hard
you sure are some comfort.
Rising up love, living on carries on.
Rockin' our hearts, rockin' the Rez.

Rockers Hearts, Rocking Rez.

I wanted to thank the Mods Staff for putting a sticky on this thread. Since I made it it's received over 2000 hits which means sharing John's wisdom is the result.

Thank you for reading and participating in this three day memorial.

:coffee:

There is surely a special place in the afterlife for men like him. Sadly, they are outcasts in a world run by greedy, power hungry psychopaths and sociopaths. Thankfully we live in a universe where one thought of love is exponentially more powerful than 1,000 thoughts of fear/hate/evil.

[Shadowself]

Just thought I'd add...in the op are his last words before his ride showed up...which I captured for the op and the start of this three day memorial.
