SILVER CORDING Strange lights moving in the sky And dead things floating on the water I look above me to see electric jellyfish, And below my feet reflect the crackling of living stars Truly I tell you there's nothing Holding me to account on earth But if you confuse your sense data as having a soul, What stops the very universe from its own rebirth? I lost consciousness for over an hour But some never gain any their entire lifetimes over I will so much to escape this materiality trap But the silver cord in my spine keeps tethering me back.
