"CLOUD FALLS RAP" from PETER FIREBRACE23 September 2008
Here is a collection of lyrical reflexions on the quest for health through Chinese medical themes to the crazy wisdom of Daoist dreams,on the important role of chocolate in the search for the Dao to acknowledging great teachers from the past who still influence us now. Cloud Falls Rap strives to widen the gap, so we can see through the crack and find our way back. Up, up, up that waterfall to the source of the each, to the source of the all, where that Immortal Peach hangs over the wall. Will you pick it? Will you pluck it? Will you leave it alone? Will you eat it there? Or will You take it home? No matter wath you do, no matter wath you say, enjoy ourself in the waterfall spray!
