On a large beach towel
Draped across humble grass
Ideas ferment
What is ascent?
Surrounded by reality and griffins
A lost soul gazes in an esoteric direction

Missiles of infinite malice flying through space

The soul turns to a brilliant light sitting beside it

The light homogenizes back into the universe
Time is an arbitrary concept
It’s not too late to start over
Because the god of wisdom
