And For My Next Trick

And for my next trick
Suicidal dive leaves
My friend wanting and waning
The Aramaic idol screeches
Madly amidst patrons
Committed to higher levels
And flavors of consciousness
And as silence groans quickly
Among those needing to exhale
I consider where the journey
May lead me next
When all I know is
Sometime is left to come.

Tricky to predict the future Or even if its worth the price or pain of the journey. Only thing you can do is Exhale breath and ride S.L
