Once upon a time
I reached for the stars
And tried to climb
The sun's golden bars
But those rays of light
Cut short my flight
I reached for the stars
And fell from the sky
My hopes now scars
I can't justify
To myself alone
I am she who has flown
I tried to climb
Like Icarus the son
Melted wax come noontime
With nothing won
No promises made
No trophies gained
The sun's golden bars
Whose sentinels maintained
The ghosts of Mars
Those who remain
Close to my heart
Forever apart
The rays of light
Have faded away
The moon now night
Where the world decays
And I'm still fading
The sun never staying
Cut short my flight
Left behind it all

Onslaught
it rushes over me
a gust of tumbling objects
protestations and pinheads
straining the rainbow stitches
that pin my soul together
a stabbing suggestion
complete with kiwi and tangerine
and words i dont quite understand
hurtle towards me
uncertainty bleaches the threads
binding me together
thoughts overwhelm
red coals and sweatpants
bits of cloth and ruby dust
are sprinkled across my mindscape
a crack appears
a spark
ignites bits of fluff
camo teddies and orange bubbles
a gaping hole
a devouring empty mouth
it occurs to me that i have lost
everything
the black whirlwind that
speeds across the landscape
shreds everything
but from the pu

Aftershocks shook her soul for weeks.

I actually was just watching the vid to Parabola - the imagery is spot on with some vedic concepts. Actually even depicts the conscious current withdrawing to a singularity.
The problem is that society terms it new age. I find this amusing as all these concepts are thousands of years old... probably since time immemorial. Unfortunately people are educated in a monosynthetic way. They ram down only one or two "accepted" concepts and don't give you the opportunity to have a broad scope to draw from. I mean how many people actually know anything about what these sages and poets actually taught, I doubt most people have even heard of them. I find it highly ironic that so many claim to be this or that religion but know very little about it, let alone any other religion.
Certain yogis and mystic sages describe three stages of non duality as such. The inconceivable, the inaccessible and finally the "Anami" Nameless. The idea is that it cannot be thought of, it cannot be found, and it has no name. Or simply put emptiness.
Another interesting quote is "the path is so narrow that only one can pass" this referring to dualism. I think even jesus said "it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven" (something like that) - Sounds an awful lot like letting go of the ego to me. I see very little difference is the teachings of all sages only the interpretations given by people differ... wildly... and sometimes dangerously
You are right this is not a path. However from this perspective it appears as if there is one
