SUNYATA (Before Minutes)

Filamentous shrooms in my honest darkest hours
Groomed my lightest minutes and seconds with the higher powers
Succoured me to build universal relationships with cosmic beings
Through conflictive things, you'll find no peace nor relieve
When I'm lost in thoughts; I strongly believe

An oblique view on the world I rebuke
Because only a coward takes the good without the bad
Only a fool lives happy, and doubts sadness exists
I've been having these endless premonitions
Higher positions being filled in empty prisons
What are we losing to gain in this trapped confusion

I ask again to ignite the candle in your heart
I ask again to remind you, where did it all start
Is it the little things that count ?
Or am I just part of the count of little things ?
That do not amount to anything

I feel alive on behalf of your deadened mind
Mine is constantly at work and that is why
I have sleepless nights
And in friendless times my mind is all I've got
To see the blind and to remind through amnesia
Lucy, Hannah and Lisa were Barry's three sisters
Used in a poem to complete the rhyme
Before minutes turned to After hours
I pondered as I sat in the showers...
