Dear Bowlmaster
With every means
To gratify the soul,
The heart, the mind,
Load the bowl,
The spark too friendly,
My wounds too deep,
Only escaping
When I fall asleep.
Having
Simplistic visions of a complex world,
Tell me sir,
Has the path uncoiled?
The lonely labyrinth
I walk,
Seeking some light
In this world infested by
Man's blight.
I sought the path to heaven,
As I did for hell,
All I found was indifference
Laying around like shells -
Blown to smithereens
Was my mind.
These perceptions, my thoughts,
I yearn the day I fall
Into momentary bliss
When I kiss the glass -
Let the time last and pass,
Leaving every moment,
Every second,
Within seconds.
Recollecting the faith
In this world I hate,
I must escape!
Oh Captain! Set sail
To the land of More,
And I won't look back,
Oh, I'll never look back.
These hearts,
I see ice,
And these souls,
I see black,
Plagued by the lack
Of love.
How could this have happened,
Dear Bowl Master?
What do they expect of you?
40 days 'n' nights
Christ went famished,
But no sustenance
For thy affliction?
What more can I say
To this world?
Tossed into confusion
Is my mind.
Our addiction to risk,
Can no longer sustain,
The rain will wash the pain
Away. Away
Will the rights be lost,
To living and choosing a
Medicine for the mind.
End this madness!
Harper plays the harp,
Broken strings and
Untuned chaos,
Tradition will change,
Injustice be undone.
The rage of youth,
The dogma of Fools,
Let the revolution spin.
Victory is within the toke.
To gratify the soul,
The heart, the mind,
Load the bowl,
The spark too friendly,
My wounds too deep,
Only escaping
When I fall asleep.
