[Spoken Word]
I mean no matter what you believe about
Alien abductions and or religious experiences
And or psychedelic channelings
And or immersive gaming
And or magic and witchcraft
Revival tent hucksterism
Myers-Briggs psychobabble
Or Hank Williams singing with the conviction of a man who had seen the light
No matter what you think about it all
It's your rigorous intuition that tells your tell-tale heart at the end of the day
At the twilight between dusk and dawn you have to ask yourself a question about it
What light?
A blinding light
One of those rare and purposeful beams of light that we are told strike certain individuals at key moments in their lives
Tesla as a child in the Balkans
Philip K Dick in Fullerton
Bob Dyland in his bedroom in Malibu
Merle Haggard in a small plane over Point Conception
Joan of Arc's blinding visions
Saint Catherine receiving the stigmata
From a dense beam of otherworldly yellow colour
