Are you ready with me?

Once we make contact

Jump from mind to mind

Stages of mental development

Principles that mirror

Immersed in self-experience

Friendly little mountain

That is how it looks

An image brightened in her mind

Moss growing on things

Wind blew through the enclosure

Powers and patterns

The hole in the drum

Above my pay grade

Once we make contact

Heading toward the molten core

Where they might have moved it

Sensory deprivation chamber

As debris flies in arcs

After a couple of years

Crossed elevated walkways

I've traveled so far

What do you mean?

Reality filled her body

Runes were bought on-line

Thoughts would differ in Spanish

She touched the dint

But it quickly reemerged

Broken into two parts

Still a conspicuous absence

Deranged from incarnation

Restaurant menus appear

But that doesn't really matter

A long way very quickly

I knew the story already

We began in the ruins

Forms of spiritual communications

Into a single network

A juvenile saved his life

Dressed up as a dolphin

With one arm in plaster

With the help of a druid

The theme of the oneness

Womb of any living creature

The revelation of truth

An enormous room is packed

300 years on the cold water

After the day of rest
