Poem #1<br>
<br>
<br>
<b><span style='font-weight:bold'>Euphoric Bullshit</span></b><br>
<br>
We come into the circle with our passions and resolve<br>
We each have a lot of issues that we really want to solve<br>
But we all start a talkin', and things get out of hand<br>
So take a little breath (breath) and settle down and we'll ease into the plan<br>
<br>
CHORUS:<br>
Euphoric bullshit is the name of the game<br>
We take the sacred and we make it profane<br>
You can't come in, unless you bear your pain<br>
Euphoric bullshit is the name of the game<br>
<br>
We're calling a lot of sessions, with various intents<br>
Some get a little bit impatient as we sit upon the fence<br>
But emergence growing edges will carry us all along<br>
We are but one great voice in the universal song<br>
<br>
Chorus<br>
Instrumental break<br>
<br>
Now the time has come for us to go out into the world<br>
And throw our great intentions into the cosmic swirl<br>
Hey you don't need to worry that these things will come to pass<br>
Because evolution's arrow will kick you in the ass<br>
<br>
Chorus<br>
<br>
<br>
Poem #2<br>
<br>
There was a young man who had learned a good trick.<br>
He stood up and asked them all "what makes you tick?"<br>
They wrote a few words and he went for a walk.<br>
He returned and they cried "it was so good to talk!"<br>
They hugged him and gave him a kiss on the neck<br>
As he walked out the door to deposit the check.<br>
<br>
<br>
Poem #3<br>
<br>
<br>
Atlas<br>
<br>
Atlas strains to stay standing.<br>
His stone limbs faintly shaking,<br>
he gazes far off as if to forget<br>
this cruel, pressing mass he must lift<br>
until time ends. Holding space is a curse.<br>
<br>
<br>
Poem #4<br>
<br>
<br>
i opened the circle<br>
<br>
disappeared down the rabbit hole<br>
<br>
emerged the other side<br>
<br>
flowing with the tide<br>
<br>
<br>
Poem #5<br>
<br>
<br>
“I Am So Amazing”<br>
<br>
<br>
I invite them to crawl around on the floor<br>
…and they do.<br>
…and they kind of like it.<br>
<br>
I invite them to post signs on a wall, run around the room like insects…<br>
<br>
I tell them feet have laws.<br>
<br>
The part they see me do is pick up their coffee cups – incredibly skilled work,
worthy of huge sums of money.<br>
<br>
I ring a bell; they sit. <br>
<br>
I have such power…<br>
<br>
<br>
Poem #6<br>
<br>
<br>
I once tried to do everything opposite.<br>
Sit in a line. <br>
I shall stand at a podium and tell you how to think.<br>
No room for extra thoughts – that is off-topic.<br>
Please have your agenda items ready one week in advance.<br>
I will select a few topics I feel pertain to the issue.<br>
Please refrain from thinking until the official start time of our meeting.<br>
Only those with special titles may have ideas.<br>
Do not leave the room.<br>
Please be sure you end the meeting with the same thoughts you came in with.<br>
Keep the windows closed so no insects fly in to disturb our meeting.<br>
No breathing, please.<br>
<br>
