our mystical style of passion
is ten times hotter than we believe

provoking our passion issues
into provocative chance.
"provocative chance" is a very interesting pair as is "market for happenstance," which isn't a pair but is good. Calls for some thinking about... thanks a lot for sharing
This line is quite apt for the consumerist spirit of the age that prevails. Everything, including ourselves from the moment we are born, is meat for the market. Thankfully, neither Keynes, Hayek nor Friedman could fit the hand of providence into an economic unit.

Having said this, what chance exists can be very provocative one way or another.

This book consists of a 150 pages of Christian poetry about the end of time and the Second coming of Jesus Christ not as a servant but as a King, the King of kings. To bring righteousness and peace to the earth and restore the government of God! Peac
These song lyrics and art are tales, tides and twinkling lights - tunes telling stories of warmth and sun, city and sand, paths that lead, and the coins we can keep in the Karma Bank. Spirit's been bypassed for sorrow, dreaming of a better tomorrow .
