Immerse yourself in all possible dreams
Avoid the churl and the swirl of lost worlds
Row merrily, merrily down all streams
Only redeem when the loss has unfurled

Tread lightly around false ego or pride
Silence is golden and offers insight
In peace reside, inside slide but don’t hide
Let others take care of audacious plight

Good will is for hunting, able and Cain
Take to life’s torments, look the other way
Do not tempt others, but don’t go in vain
Eventually cornered, give hell to pay

Can I curtail innate behavior
Transfigure nature towards the most pure
Be enslaved by the will of the Saviour
Risk this lost soul on the way to the cure

A billion years go by in dead seconds
Will not a million songs be sung along
I dreamt at times only one call beckons
A yin and yang insight, or Cheech & Chong

Is it my plight or be others the judge
Tracing my footsteps on boards I do trudge
