Illumination 
Transcendence is time, sense
Understanding, non

You know
Maybe
We’re both really dead
You say
Maybe
I’m out of my head
Fever
Rising
Out of control
You think
Do they
Still have a soul

Mountains rising
Into the sky
You think
Maybe
They’re not really so high

Temperature 
Rising
Out of our brain
You know 
Maybe
We both are insane
or
You know
Maybe
We’re both just in pain

Samsara bingo
Attached to all suffering 
Surfing the waves

Say “Goodbye Self”
Hello great clouded mystery 
The unknowable
