Sublime G

I was dead, then alive Weeping, then laughing The power of love, came into me And I became fierce like a lion He said "You're not mad enough You don't belong in this house" I went wild and had to be tied up He said "Still not wild enough to stay with us!" I broke into another layer into joyfullness He said "It's not enough" I died He said "You clever little man Full of fantasy and doubting" I plucked my feathers and became a fool He said "Now you're the candle for this assembly" But I'm no candle. Look! I'm scattered smoke He said "You're the sheikh, you're the guide" But I'm not a teacher. I have no power He said "You already have wings. I cannot give you wings" But I wanted his wings I felt like some flightless chicken Then new events said to me "A sublime generosity is coming towards you" An old man said "Stay with me" I said "I will" I went wild and had to be tied up He said "Still not wild enough to stay with us!" I broke into another layer into joyfullness He said "It's not enough"
