Song On The Overself (Revised) Poem by Margaret Alice Second

I now sing the Overself song, our nearest help is
like a Big Brain and we are the extensions thereof;
it can only use our bodily senses to experience and
interact with the physical world

The Overself desires to know everything, what
wealth, poverty, privilege and adversity, to
take part in intrigues; our whole existence is
stored within our subconscious

The subconscious knows where to retrieve the
data we need and enables communication with
the Overself called spirit guides, direct contact
by mystical meditation is seldom managed

Lets add Jung’s collective unconscious to these
mystical concepts, then there is no need to ever
feel lonely again as there are an infinite number
of dimensions with Overselves to watch over us

Looking back from various temporal dimensions,
ready to share their knowledge upon request, oh,
I love the theory, having a subconscious library
where all information is accessible

No need to live through tragedy if we consult the
subconscious to get help from our Oversouls, or
more realistically, consider the manifold stories
relayed by books and movies

I’m sure my Oversoul is happily ensconced in a
movie theatre enjoying the tragedies enacted by
others- and thus I need not live through these
harrowing experiences!

[ORIGINAL: ]

Now I shall sing a song on the Overself, our nearest help,
we are extensions of a Big Brain which cannot see, hear,
smell, touch or feel and uses our bodily senses to interact
with the physical world

The Big Brain desires real experience of wealth and poverty,
privilege and adversity, taking part in intrigues, nothing we
do remains unknown to our Overself, our existence is stored
within the subconscious

Which is rather dim but knows knows how to retrieve the
information we want and enables communication with our
Overself symbolised in spirit guides, direct communication
with our Overself

Is done by mystical meditation - managed by a very few
people, lets add Jung’s collective unconscious to these
mystical concepts and there is no need to ever feel
lonely as we have

An infinite number of dimensions to visit and an infinite
number of Overselves to watch over us, looking at us from
various temporal dimensions, ready to share their knowledge
upon request – I LOVE this

Life is a library, we can use the subconscious to find any
information we want, there is no need to first live through
a tragedy if we consult the stock of knowledge available to
us all – through Oversouls

Or more realistically, the many stories relayed by books
and movies, I’m sure my Oversoul is happily ensconced
in a movie theatre enjoying the many comedies enacted
by others so I have no need

To live through the same harrowing experiences!
