Metathesis A transference to valleys green Where ego's go to be serene. Where battles and the battlements Dissolve into the firmament. Where lucid is an idol mean Interned into desires scene. Built upon a phantom shoal To exercise aspires goal. An Eden, a hideaway, A garden, a place to play. A kingdom in the stars to go For only you and yours to know. You make the rules in limped pools With fantasies exotic tools. Wishing on a wishing well A magic wand to wave a spell. To clear to clean the mortal scene To sweep the mind with mescaline. To change the doldrums brake the chain Moralize the mind from pain. To hear the nightingale in song Plant the right replace the wrong. Hear the music in the clouds Dissipate oppressive crowds. To spend some time in shangri-la Wherein the mind is never far. |
