"On June 13, 2010, Uranus, Jupiter, and 
Mercury will be lined up on one side of 
the Sun while Venus, Mars, and Saturn 
will be lined up on the other side. Earth 
will be perpendicular to the Sun at this time."

listening to solfeggio harmonics 
and imagining i can see the show
this monumental day of epic proportions
has me contemplating
on an enormous scale
a universe of existence
a world far greater than you
probably dare to admit
don't be afraid to look inside
