Where do good ideas come from? They shrivel away from the hypnotizing light of a virtual socialite They grow toward the sun out above the clouds Ever-present from birth to death, They're the latest permutations of the same explosion that started that Fusion core up there running Running without stopping for a billion years Fueling the experiments of life that consciousness spontaneously manifested Across the planets Each a test of a different vibrational frequency Incompatible with one another but coexistent Mercury's barren silver mines And the Venusian valleys And the regal red sands of Mars And Jupiter's infinite wisdom and so forth to the edge of the Oort Cloud And the green and blue ecology of earth, the waterworld Where the entire drama we've seen so far has been carried out The audience has grown in appetite And doesn't always see that it too is the performance But the unwilling blindness is all part of the sublime suspense of this subcosmic game The planetary curiosity, Can we make it? Would it matter? We'll never truly die when we forget time
