1727

Musicians are the true adults,
Giving themselves over to a power
That forces and focuses
Everyone in the radius to a state
Neither waking nor dreaming

Self-consciousness is overrated
Not to meet with pitchforks
To go get old man Shakespeare
But it does imply an omniscience
That cancels the power to act

Maybe that's what's up with Jahweh
He thinks His Kid outdid Him
No, musicians have it right
Practice the rough spots away
I'll stop here and leave the bumper stickers to Tim
