Plotting To Increase God's Joy


Am I explaining very well that from time to time
I like having my reality turned inside out
My shit blown away
Experiencing the world as such
That I forever perceive everyone and everything anew?
It's important for me to know
That God is active in my life and all creation
Not through faith alone, but through experience.

I'm trying to point you toward a desire for that experience
Because I want to share what I have seen and see
And because I want friends to accompany me and my children
Through the music, on our trips
Where I assure you is the only game in town.

No matter how advanced our technology
It's our basic understanding and experience of life
That advances our civilization,
It's our ability to surrender to beauty
And our love of creation
That allows us to express ourselves
Through image and sensation.

Why am I telling you this?
When I know that God's love remains constant
And beauty will exist whether or not we sleep
And everything funnels in and out of the moment
And the music of the stars is eternal...

Because I care for you
And I am selfish
And want to increase our joy
Because I know it increases God's joy
And I want to share ecstatic jubilation
Creating safe environments
Where we can let loose in a frenzy of unbounded release
Rhythms in rhythms
Creative expression
The peace of loving.

I guess...
It's safe to say
That I
Am just
A sucker
For a goodtime.
Eternity is kissing me...
