Astral Thoughts

Oh Dr.Oz would you endorse
Visionary entheogens, 
Opiates and stimulants to
Find truths,
Unlocking the rooms of the
Universe of the inside?
Following bliss
Finding God ,
The true self
The Astral self
But the loneliest room
Is the one outside. 
And the check out time is now.

Oh sick world filled with a million televangelist
And one hundred and fifty channels 
Filled with prosperity gospels 
And fifty dollar good faith seeds
But the Lord needs a extra sixty.
Oh Mr. Campbell what new myths
Shall we live by?
What new messiah awaits
Behind face one thousand and one?

Oh Dr.Phil help us as we brace our psyches
For the trip back to the moon.
The time is near for
Young men shall have visions
And old men shall dream dreams 
As they browse discount racks
With money left over,
After amscott customer service fees.

Oh Lord how long
Till this life rolls up
Like a scroll?
And we stand glorified 
Before ourselves 
Reflected in the eyes
Of our absentee father?
