A to B

Different degrees



So much style without substance

So much stuff without style

It's hard to recognize the real thing

It comes along once in a while



Like a rare and precious metal

Beneath a ton of rock

It takes some time and trouble

To separate from the stock

You sometimes have to listen

To a lot of useless talk



Shapes and forms

Against the norm

Against the run of the mill

Swimming against the stream

Life in two dimensions

Is a mass production scheme



So much poison in power

The principles get left out

So much mind on the matter

The spirit gets forgotten about



Like a righteous inspiration

Overlooked in haste

Like a teardrop in the ocean

A diamond in the waste

Some world-views are spacious

And some are merely spaced



Against the run of the mill

Static as it seems

We break the surface tension

With our wild kinetic dreams

Curves and lines

Of grand designs
