The lighthouse
From his place at the top of a stone lighthouse
several hundred miles inland
a sage sat in silence
and spun around slowly on a revolving platform,
emitting a soft blue light from his right hand
as he went around
♫ ♫ ♫
He’s been up there for about three hundred years
Doesn’t eat or drink anything anymore,
and he never comes down
He just sits like that
in silence
and spins around
very slowly
What makes the platform turn?
Two of his disciples
are on the level directly below
riding bicycles that power the mechanism
that turns the platform
Cool
How do they get in?
I haven’t seen a door
There’s a secret tunnel
that leads from the under the lighthouse
to somewhere else
The door was walled up and the tunnel was dug
about two hundred years ago
The sage got tired of people knocking on his door
and wanting to speak with him,
so now there is no door to knock on
His light is soft
but very strong
And it never dims
Yeah
He’s got a good connection to the source
Yeah
He could leave his body at anytime,
but he hangs around
to give us
and all those who pass by
his blessings
It’s pretty cool that he can live off of prana
Yeah
Does he still talk?
I’ve only heard him sing mantras
and lullawakes
He sings pretty well
Yeah
He doesn’t feel the need to talk anymore
He’s in a state of bliss
What is there to say
when you’re in that space?
Yeah
Talking is overrated
Earth would be a lot nicer
if there were a bit less talking going on
Yeah
A lighthouse is a good place for a light being
Yeah
Some withdraw and stay in caves,
but he’s chosen to sit here among us
and send out waves of light and love
Maybe he could do something about all the blackouts
I’m not so sure
He’s from a different line
and he’s off the grid
He has a wireless connection
to another kind of power,
the source of all power
He’s a kind of transformer
Yeah
Everyone who wanders
into his sphere of influence
experiences some sort of positive change
It’d be cool if every town had a lighthouse
with a sage inside
Yeah
That’d be super cool
It’s time for lunch
Let’s go
And then the two friends made their way
to the dinning space
while some monkeys made their way
to the freshly-planted peanut fields
♫ ♫ ♫
