Subliminal Hook 1: I summon all mystical powers...s (3Xs) This is interactive, I react to science and magic A force of habit, to let my imagination hold me captive My mind adaptive to any witchcraft that you practice One of many facets pushing me towards ataraxis My pain ain’t passive, and healing comes slow as molasses Kill all masters, replace em with the will of the masses And take our chances, that that’s a form of mental advancement An enhancement, improvement on our current circumstances I search for answers, and teach an elephant what ant is A steady hand, surgically removing culture cancers In future stanzas, I’m still trying to sort through my findings I stay reminding…myself they never DIE from my kindness The bottom line is, most people are as fickle as time is That wisdom’s timeless, familiar like the sweet smell of pine is And I’m a pilot, taking flight to Avra island That’s not aligning? suggest you read the book in the binding Love is blinding, some people are immune to confinement And like my writing, love is cryptic like The Shining I gave up trying, let the doves go, sent them flying If they return and I’m not there, how could I possibly fi nd em?
