Basic elemental

Instinct to survive

Stirs the higher passions

Thrill to be alive



Alternating currents

In a tidewater surge

Rational resistance

To an unwise urge

Anything can happen



From the point of conception

To the moment of Truth

At the point of surrender

To the burden of proof



From the point of ignition

To the final drive

The point of the journey

Is not to arrive

Anything can happen



Basic temperamental

Filters on our eyes

Alter our perceptions

Lenses polarize

Alternating currents

Force a show of hands

Rational responses

Force a change of plans

Anything can happen



From a point on the compass

To magnetic North

The point of the needle

Moving back and forth



From the point of entry

Until the candle is burned

The point of departure

Is not to return

Anything can happen



I set the wheels in motion

Turn up all the machines

Activate the programs

And run behind the scenes



I set the clouds in motion

Turn up light and sound

Activate the window

And watch the world go 'round



Anything can happen
