Call to Song

Well Tim, you’ve got me completely perplexed with this one. more later

Tim- This one makes a bit more sense to me if I leave many of the lines out:

Call to Song

The gods,
like stray Cheshire Cats
throw clues into our paths
inside this Rabbit Hole.

There joy abounds,
a rebellious spring
saturating our cells,
calling our nerves to song.

Divine lies can be left behind,
let those invisible airs guide you.


Call to Song

The gods,
like stray Cheshire Cats
throw clues into our paths
inside this Rabbit Hole
then insist on a holocaust
to sate their hunger
lacking the blessings
of stillness and return
I am mystified by what you're trying to say here.

There joy abounds,
a rebellious spring defusing
rock and scripture,
an outward flow, casually terrific
likewise with this part
saturating our cells,
calling our nerves to song.

Divine lies can be left behind,
let those invisible airs guide you.

Maybe it's just me, but I really am baffled. It seems that the N holds as much faith in fantasy as religion, yet in the end advises that we be guided by the 'mystery' of it all- 'those invisble airs'. I can concur with those last lines, but it sure does seem like a convoluted way around to it.
