Ann
Right when she betters herself
she falls sickening with the blade of a razor clenched in her hands
Holding onto that piece of metal
As if her life depended on it.
And history repeats itself.
i will wade out
                        till my thighs are steeped in burning flowers
I will take the sun in my mouth
and leap into the ripe air
                                       Alive
                                                 with closed eyes
to dash against darkness
                                       in the sleeping curves of my body
Shall enter fingers of smooth mastery
with chasteness of sea-girls
                                            Will i complete the mystery
                                            of my flesh
I will rise
               After a thousand years
lipping
flowers
             And set my teeth in the silver of the moon

nivek
all shape and silent
she came to me

the mystery of persons
on our lips

we listened to our stories
and songs

and forged new ones
deep in our souls.

and the bird sails thru the sky
and the smoke from the 1000 fires rising

Tell us a story , Daddy                                      
A story of love                          

••

She wanders centuries of grace and shame
She has been loved by peasant boy and king

Still she wanders
On and on



She is your mother !                                    
My children !                        

                                     //

We met in a dream

•  •

In the nighttime stars shall guide us thru
To the holy places and the city avenues

To the world as it is supposed to be

(  We are meant to be free  )  

Free for
                                     Love

•••

Thanks for the story , Daddy
We will strive

To keep love's true meaning alive

Love is something we will not betray

As the bird is flying thru the sky

And the smoke from the 1000 fires start to rise
