That which lurks in shadow Appears to the seeking man My perception mistook for madness The inner eye projects the universe Immortality Spirits move like clouds Morphing sun to blur Beasts of sky evacuate Exalted rays of the moon hiss sparks The serpent of my dreams Changes form in the water As I am now under water I slither through the murk To a palace at the bottom Everyone I know was there Boiled to a powder The projection is the truth The flesh a trite fable The secret lives in fruited soil Deep in the gut of entranced ones Forests in the haze Grasp the vision Gnash it with my teeth Swallow it whole Transmigratory permutations Collapsed in debris Rebuild from center The clash of time With experience Vacuums of energy Eternal Meditation
