A Wake...
Now I wake me up from bed,
eyelids heavy and a drum
in my head...
~Long night. Where am I now?
~Dreamy light... I'm awake
somehow?
55... Mom died.
From today...
155... am I alive?
~Yes, you are....
"This Way..."
Now I wake me up from sleep,
past and present lights of speed,
catching up... my mind is deep.
Rhyming patterns in the air.
I see them. They see me hear.
~155... drive me.
~Light to sea...
Buddha sat under a tree...
His birthday 9, in the month of May.
"This Way..."
Mason left a message dear,
Was "On the One" so we can hear,
George ol' boy... what do you say?
From the Buddha's birth, Count.
1 5 5 6 days.
~Where are the twins~
CC XX... this way...
Hear the music when it plays...
You're A Wake to count the days.
... okay then. A WakE it is...
The English word "wake" originated from the ancient Indo-European root
"wog" or "weg," meaning "to be active." This evolved into several
meanings, including "growth" ("vegetable"), "to become or stay alert,"....
and "watching or guarding"
