Sickness Afoot

The Parliament of Owls is in session

But we cannot see their eyes

Their heads are looking behind them

Because owls do not move their eyes

What's coming comes from behind

It's not what is clearly seen, so visible now

It's the sickness afoot, the sickness coming

That's what the owls are looking for now

Sickness is afoot, evil's in full view

Sickness is afoot, where is our guide?

Sickness is afoot, what to do? What to do?

Sickness is afoot, where resides the guide?

Leonard wrote that magic is afoot

And Buffy sang his words

Leonard wrote that God is alive

And Buffy sang is words

But now, sickness is afoot,

And evil is alive, and where is our guide?

Sing the song that's in your dream

Dreams of the night will be our guide!

A Note…

In the dream I saw owls sitting on branches of a tree.

No eyes could be seen as they were all looking behind

them. A sound began to rise, I think it was from the owls,

singing the line, "Sickness is afoot."

As I woke, I started hearing Buffy St. Marie singing

Leonard Cohen's words from his book, Beautiful Losers.

Dreams have to do with the future. Our conscious intentions

as well as our hopes are all formed from what we know,

from what is past.

The owls know what is coming. Look to your dreams

to provide the hints.
