Magic & Madness

They all think I’ve been acting reckless

But I’ve been lying in the field beyond right and wrong

From its flowers I’ve made you a necklace

And from its view I wrote you this silent song

I’m planning an expedition into madness

And I hope that will show

That there’s something beyond this magnificent sadness

Yes, reckless is nothing to what’s coming though

But that’s their view.

You see,

I don’t worry because I love it all:

The dark, the light, and the way maggots crawl.

There is magic to this madness,

That’s what I want to show.

But most people have isolated themselves

From what they don’t want to know.

They all think Magic has left Life.

But they’ve only arranged themselves so they can’t see

That Magic is right around the corner,

Shaking hands with Destiny.

The limit will always open the structure up.

Nothing is set in stone.

Time will unshackle Being.

Ecstatic moan, by terrible groan.
