The Spotify Experience

An exploration of music and poetry. 

Narrated by Clinton R. Johnson from Canada. 

It's rather surprising how far words can reach. 

Salute. 

A couple of the artists on my bio are unknown. A strange Spotify algorithm.

The voice of Raphael

 The voice of Raphael

Press play and let the emotional music wash over you as you read. Salute. 

The voice of Raphael 

(A lone voice whispers)

I'm a hidden mercenary

An angel 

A bringer of the 

Purple Flame

Often seen 

As a young man

Carrying a staff

But I'm just 

A tollkeeper 

And opener of occult doorways 

To secretive places from 

The Great In-Between 

Held in the 

Great Pagan 

Books 

Of so many 

Names

One of the ancient inhabitants 

Forever reborn 

An original citizen

of a lost faraway world 

A holy city

Beyond the Great Veil

The Gatekeeper is just my magical occult sigil

Say my invocation spell three times 

And I'll appear 

To help you materialise those dark dreams of love

Or wealth 

You hold dear

It's that simple

O' Ancient One

Great Gatekeeper 

from beyond the 

Great Shadows

Hear my call and come hither forth

O' Ancient One

From beyond the Great Shadows

Hear my call and come visit me

whilst I dream 

Riding upon your great white horse

O' Blessed Be

O' Ancient One

Great Gatekeeper from beyond the

Great Shadows

Hear my call and come hither forth

Did you do it

The look in your eyes says yes

If you really confess

For I'll be visiting you

Tonight

In the low hours

Just after 

Midnight 

So mote it be

If God will allow 

Us

Is this your Christmas wish?

I once prayed for true love

And  

When the Christmas sunshine 

finally lit you up

I knew deep down inside

I'd found some magic

The Angel called Evermore

 

Was he a light worker?

 

“We must never forget that art is not a form of propaganda; it is a form of truth.”

Remembering JFK, who championed science to put a human foot on the Moon, and championed art, to put poetry and power in the human heart, and was killed in 1963 

So many could strive to be free:

The Angel called Evermore

 

Do you pray in these dark times in 2021?

 

A prayer whispered from the Great In-Between just for you. 

Now say after me, using that reading voice, who is narrating these words. 

Let there be a bright light to strengthen and revitalise

Me and my beloved family

In the name and in the presence of The Almighty

Of which I am reborn eternally

Through the sacred power of the Holy blood

Once sacrificed for me and the many others

I COMMAND the four winds to summon

Archangel Michael

To with his mighty sword

Remove all dark energies
Linked to covid 19

Manifesting
Around me my family or my friends

And any unseen energies
That binds

As all that darkness is absolved

Into the ether from whence, it came

I call upon

Archangel Michael

To summon the blessed
Violet Flame and through
Ablution

To cleanse all our energies
And remove all illnesses

And threats to our mortal being

To once again
Bathe us in the
Pure White Light

From the Almighty's
Great Halls and to

Fill up all our Future Rooms

With so much revitalizing
Energy

I ask Archangel Michael
To purge all the afflictions

From our souls 

as we all go into the world

To do the Lord's bidding

In this very moment 
As this energy is released

I pray for divine salvation

Freedom and enlightenment
In the name of the
Almighty

So be it

Amen

Unspoken Love Song of the Heartbroken

Are we the broken

Just unconsciously

Attracted 

To the broken

Is it simply 

The unspoken

Love song 

Of the heartbroken

For Love is now just frozen in time 

With

Arms 

No longer wide open 

As

Eyes now dimmed
Filled with no emotions 

Pray for someone new

To bring hope in


But as tears run

Down our soft skin

Soaking

In

Like the bluest of oceans


Is it then we slowly realise


It’s simply 

The oldest golden slogan

Of those

Who could never be happy


For we're the ones 

Who might never be chosen


Us

Who wonder these lands

 
Pretending to be happy 

As we go through

All gears and motions

Forever just wearing a mask


Smiling and always appearing on the outside

To be joking 

But deep down inside

We hide our  eternal soul 

Which is crying 

As it struggles to find true love
And for now 


Waits 

Standing still 

Quietly choking

Even In The Arms Of Heaven, They Still Return

In this turbulent storm, we are all silently walking through, I decided to share this audio book I wrote and produced for free.

For all those beautiful souls lost within its swirling winds.

Was it a dream or just another story from the other-side?

I will leave that for you to answer. Have you got 40 minutes free? Put some earphones in and have a listen. Salute. Within memories, they always return. Narrated by the wonderful, Linda Roper.

One day, I'd like to make this into a short film.
