BAD TO BE GOOD by efhjr

BAD TO BE GOOD (c) Copyright 2008 by Earl F. Hubbard Jr.
(from MUTINY ON 'THE LITTLE STAR' coming SOON!)

You have to be bad to be good,
is what I' m here to say,
You have to be bad to be good,
if you want to play -

with the handsome captain,
of 'The Little Star'
You have to be bad to be good,
no matter where you are.

You've got to be bad to be good,
DEEP down to the bone,
when you want to play,
with me or alone -

to feel the metaphysical,
beyond this world of stone,
and
to expand your consciousness,
until it's fully grown.

You have to be bad to be good,
but in a tantric way,
You have to be bad to be good,
each and every day.

Each and every day,
you have to be bad to be good,
is what I'm here to say,
until it's understood -

with your heart and soul,
with your body and your mind,
that every now and then,
you have to be cruel to be kind.


efhjr.

    I am bad and someone good,
    can be cruel to be kind,
    will be wicked to make you smile
    but most of all
    I will be me, just to have you be you

    I get the feeling this is about what can be experienced beyond the physical, becoming completely open and aware to what lies beyond what we see the here and now becoming more spiritual, feeling and seeing with your heart and soul. Your ending is so true you do have to be cruel to be kind sometimes.
    Always a pleasure made me think
    Love you ~sugar~ xxx
