Sitting on the banks of the Kinneret, as usual, hallucinating in 47 degree heat. If I didn't move at all, it was possible to feel sweat dripping down like one contiguous circle around my body. The dehydration was fascinating.
I would go for a run in the forest, have a swim, then sit in hypnotised shock.
As I did this one day, I saw before me a wedding happening on the beach, the bride walking slowly from one side, the groom from the other. Hundreds of meters away from each other, with the chuppah in the middle.
As it was getting darker, a UFO hovered over the area, shone a blinding light over the couple, while the ghosts of the girls from the Picnic at Hanging Rock sang choral exercises behind me.
I couldn't find my invitation. All that was allowed was for me to watch, a close encounter of the ?th kind.
If you haven't been that out of it on just sunlight before, you really should try it.
lyrics
Soon it's going to be here
reverberating radiating
captured on its journey through the dark
Soon it's going to be here
gushing supernova
drawing people to their light
like animals to the ark
Soon it's going to be here
colors melting
senses pounding
cataclysmic splash
the primary spark
Soon it's going to be here
soon she's going to see him
the moon will light their way to the park
Soon it's going to be here
Venus cues this sweet commotion
tap in to the ocean in our hearts
Soon it's going to be here
soon she's going to see him
the moon will light their way to the park
