Taste of Gnosis

By Indi Riverflow | July 8, 2014

Went to wish in a meteor shower
Fortune flashing in eventide
Splashing past for hours
As the atmosphere rarified
Spying specks of stellar powder
On a spectacular final slide
To collide with the blazing Tower
Arcing sparks of the starry-eyed

{Chorus}
Seering bolts of wonder
Cracking wide the crown
You can try to race the thunder
But it’s a long, long way down
You can try to race the thunder
But it’s a long, long way down

Have we had a taste of Gnosis
Or sophisticated sophistry?
Acquiring by osmosis
Qualities of tangibility
Garden-path hypnosis
Parsing psychic circuitry
Granting form to amorphous
Extra-sensory imagery

{Chorus}

When the phoenix does arise
And the scorched Earth regrows
When emergence is self-catalyzed
Glowing in radial halos
Crackling like raging skies
Over Lake Maracaibo
Where the elements electrify
At the mouth of the Catatumbo
