i know exactly how that
rebellion through ancient history
wove like ribbons in and out
of the heart of me.

my mind came alive
hearing stories of mythological
proportions. i kept breathing
just to hold and smell, feel, hear
a wax pressing. something that
changed hearts around the world
a half century ago.

my body was bound by icy
insecurities. you set them free.
stone cold blues brought out
the best of me.

there's no turning back
