make a space out of
the invisible waters
and swim in their beauty
please choose wisely
what you will do with your life
be of service and help others
to remember that they are god too
the grace of following the heart
the magic of sound
and abundance of color
are everywhere
the treacherous stare at nothing
and then make something appear
without appearing to think
forms are beyond the mind's ability
so unwind the heat inside of you
and create whatever is dying to be born
if you believe in yourself
your whole world becomes art
and wisdom waits for no one
man am i glad she appeared
with her scarves and her ears
its so clear how beautiful she is
like a vision of the earth
a morsel of love
peace and hope
this repetition lifts us up
she keeps spinning in her place
and dancing like a wave
returning you to her garden
i am watering her plants
and dancing with her serpents
she is speaking to me in everything
making music out of bees
and honey lightning
money and charades
dangers await but we overcome
some love is bigger than anything
it speaks for itself and brings what it needs
do we stop to eat
or greet the light in the snow
the restitution of our elbows
bending like wooden bows
reaching out and up towards our nose
forward we must go on
and over the hills
that make turns in our souls
curtains fall and i bow
mounds of snow and blue tears
steer clear of fear
and worshiping grief is cheap
as a lake full of paper money
sweep clear the streets of your mind
the city in twilight is fine with me
standing still
stark naked in the woods
falling down
we run towards ground below
we awake in the sun
and continue to burn in our love
