the age of aquarius

after the 5th dimension and krs-one




in the name
of water
bearers and
moving suns
im only asking you to listen to me.
i sent someone ahead to tell you
i was coming. the moon has hushed
in and out of six houses. zeus & ares
have mashed their planets together. my first concern
is for you to hear the news about this
crazy new way to live that is sweeping the globe
clean of cobwebs & dust & other stuff that makes
it look old.
i don't know
whos behind
the wheels of
all the other planets, but im guessing
it may be amor and it looks like shes
aiming for the stars. her money stands
under sympathetic gazes and trust in
boundaries. the world is ending - just
kidding, but something is definitely ending
every minute. no more lies & stop making
fun of people. live in gold and try to see
more clearly
in your dreams.
mystics with
crystals can't
reveal more than a regular glass
window - just look. im tired
of telling people what to do,
i don't want to keep paying people
for their minds, they should be free.
astrology won't hurt you - when
did stars hurt anybody? when
the sun rose this morning it was bearing water.
i was born
back when they
were handing
out fish like
crazy. you dont
have to believe me, but some guy advertised
an all-you-can-eat sale of sardines & matzohs.
they were stale, but that was besides the point.
the point was that it was going to be lots of
sardines, two each, a thousand years for
each one. but were out of sardines now.
the whole world. well not really,
but its all a symbol. the suns been acting
funny, more
watery
shimmering
like some dress.
i heard a rumor about the fish
& matzohs guy - he wasnt a guy
at all - he was the sun. his tags went up
all over the place with instructions, but they got
burnt out (he was the sun). he also built
this wooden structure with all the zodiac signs
on it & himself in the middle. it had four
branches, one for each season. but somebody
wrote a bunch
of guys names
over the
zodiac
signs. then somebody broke it into four pieces
& said they were the sun gods spells.
but everyone knows theres no sun god - as if the sun wouldnt be
enough! but yeah, the sun doesnt hand out fish
any more - its turning into a shimmery gown-wearing
lady. shes gonna scrub away the last
of the graffiti she left last time. instead of leaving
more, shes just gonna keep watering the world.
people know it
& it freaks
some of them
the fuck out.
