DISCOMBOBULATED

My head is a television 
With the dream channel turned on 
It always turns on 
Once I forget about this world 
The screen becomes clear and more focused 
Once I’m far, far away from here 
The colors beyond the normal spectrum 
Are animated and strangely surrealistic 
Almost paranormal 
Anyone and everyone are welcome 
To tune into my station 
It’s easy
With eyes closed, just forget 
About this world for awhile 
Believe in the unbelievable 
Imagine the unimaginable 
Tune in . . . turn on 
And replace your head with a television 

Just remember,
                         don’t lose the remote

Omg! I have one with the same theme. I'll find it and post it. If your head is truly like this, then it's like mine! Just like mine! Brilliant!

In the fuzz... the divine speaks. When you clear your mind and let go of ego and dismiss your thoughts the universe speaks. And then profound thoughts drop. And congrats on getting past Theta level.

Cool Benjamin. I like the first two lines. I'm going to do just that - turn my head into a TV. I think I do something like that just before I go to sleep. Also, good idea, "don't lose the remote"!
