The hedonist
The Hedonist's Biography
Folds Of Reality
I pull on my fourth trouser leg
skip out of oblivion into the light,
take a swig out of ecstacy's jeg
to help me travel through the night,
I hang up in the departure room,
no ticket for a fully booked ship,
my addled senses in full bloom
preparing me for a cosmic trip,
I clear the table for the sesh,
arrange the CD's according to taste,
my dolphins caught in tuna net mesh
migrating to hedonism's castle with due haste,
alll the invites sent and returned,
resting in the folds of reality, creased,
as the guests arrive for hedonism earned,
all taking their places on the stage,
clearing out the group and private supply,
to free joy and happiness from their cage,
as ecstacy carries all high in the sky.
