The Portal

“Quiet the mind – the soul will speak.” …Ma Jaya


“Passage: Verge” Michael Whelan

 

Follow this orb of magic fire
far beyond this mythic archway
to worlds of pleasures you desire
lands where wishs do hold sway

to magical mystical ports of call
where you are not merely mortal
in worlds beyond the wonderwall
sailing on through mystery’s portal

trav’ling a fan-tas-ti-cal odyssey
unlike anything you can imagine
a sublimely spellbound journey
places like you have never been

you’ll see visions so enchanted
a world your mind can but beget
wonder will be by awe supplanted
what you see you will never forget

greater than fantasy’s elaboration
your sense of wonder will ascend
beyond your wildest imagination
all your disbelief you’ll suspend
as you soar in sweet hallucination
you’ll wish this joy but never end

~ oh, oh yes ~

one final thing you need to comprehend
you’ll have changed once you transcend
so you needn’t worry on yesterday again
as you were quite a different person then

  1. She’s on a big and sad druggie high?
    Too good otherwise to be true.

    1. No Jim, it’s a journey of the soul, during which many things will be revealed, that will forever change the observer’s perspective and understanding.
      A hallucination is a perception in the absence of an external stimulus that has the qualities of a real perception. Hallucinations are vivid, substantial, and are perceived to be located in external objective space. Hallucination is a combination of 2 conscious states of brain wakefulness and REM sleep.
      Many saints had hallucinations. They called them visions. Happy Holidays Jim… 🙂
