Covid Dreams

Press play before reading.
Salute.

(A lone voice whispers and sings)



We're one
Just one

Not sorry
Never sorry 

Never sorry 

They may try to push us away 
In a hurry
In a hurry 

With lies  
 Deceit 
And tall stories 

But don't worry

Don't worry
My love

For
It's too late

To ever going back 
To that old glory 

Old Glory
From here to Missouri 

Missouri 

For even 

Though 


Lost in a new maze


Like a doomed Martian 

Trying to survive 


The Purple Covid Haze

in 2023


With majestic resistance 


To strike against creeping 

Extraterrestrial 

Secret overlords 


And their human-hypnotised 

Political minions 

And paid for influencers


Seeking total dominion 


Like the Bureau of 

Secretum Sigma Four 


And all who answer 

Their cunning knocks


Upon their Astral Doors 


Armed with fistfuls of bribes 

And soft seductive lies


When they suddenly appear


While conscious thought is 

Sleeping


Those Dark Ones


Who exist outside of mankind's Scope of Existence


Only found hidden 

In The Nag Hammadi Library


Defying their Lord Pascal

With a Wild West showdown


My own shootout at 

My spiritual O.K. Corral


With subtle movements learnt 


Reading banned books

Of The Council of Nine


I found you


Like a rare discovery at 

The Gates of The Great Sphinx


My new holy mission 

Into the Danger Zone


Before my lonely ship 

Sinks and I return home


My original 

Electric Schumann Resonance


To remind me

Into strange lands of Zion 


And beyond


We all seek that most fragile of all things 

Called Love


Because we're only human


For when you're
Lost and on a feathers edge

Feeling all alone and hopeless

No solid ground under your feet
As you sleep

Banish those demons in your head 
And think of me

Your soulmate in the dark

The lone Shadow 

Forever waiting  
In your most precious and treasured 

Memory keep

For
We're one

Just one

Not sorry
Never sorry 

Never sorry 

They may try to push us away 
In a hurry
In a hurry 

With lies  
 Deceit 

But don't worry

Don't worry
My love

For
It's too late

To ever go back 
To that old glory 

Old Glory
From here to Missouri 

Missouri 

For I'll always love you
For you're my life's greatest story
