The LightshowA Poem by Theodore CurtisWeird s**t happening in real life.It's a high-velocity collision on the information superhighway It's scrambled-egg pixel parallax It's cloud computers raining in your head It is the information age. The world's information is coming alive The designs of the mystery schools are manifesting And soon there will be no more secret knowledge The names of the dead are in the search engine results The ancient methods are awakening Every word is a magic word and every number is infinite Every poem I write is a prophecy That things will continue to never be as they seem We have learned of wave-particle dualities And the importance of having eyes and ears The hallowed texts are available on amazon And it won't be long, now, before the structure is unveiled We'd like to think so. It's the new age. And every age is the new age when the time is NOW And every poem I write is a prophecy That our words are carrying us to weirder times Thy kingdom come When up is down, when man is woman "Are you up for some destruction of the gender binary? Because I am certainly down" Et cetera, ad infinitum They will remember this as the time Shortly before we brought the magic back I mean the real magic I mean weird s**t happening in real life The illusions of the old world reveal themselves as ripe for infinite subversion The patterns of the new world reveal themselves as ready to be accessed by this popular psychosis I swear I started finding stuff on the ground When I chose the "spiritual" path A whole box of cigarettes on the sidewalk The holy text of Hanuman by a dumpster I swear I started running into sages When I chose to give up the false world of objectivity The new age types call it the principle of attraction I call it weird s**t happening in real life And I cannot tell a lie I wouldn't be where I am without the internet I can just look up "Gnosticism" on wikipedia I can find online communities of people who swear they're magic users It's all bullshit in certain respects It's not all bullshit in certain respects But I have a certain respect for those Who are down for some destruction Of the bullshit/not-bullshit binary Because it's neither particle nor wave It's your eyes Seeing weird s**t happening in real life. So if you find yourself with a pair of eyes Try opening them just to see what happens Because I promise you: The lightshow has just begun.
