In a soft mid-morning, turns thin to an onion skin,
Cool in a quiet waiting, so smooth the baldest pen,
Across a light Satori, we know in a sudden realize,
Unfolds a word together-opens every shape to size
Zen me in the ease of us that quickens deep within,
Connects the me so close to you, awakens us in sin,
A flash so bright in a moment, clear & simple, right
I know you every simple thing all the small tonight
Explains our slides away, your bottom curves walk,
Remember, all the time flashed before us as we talk,
Dawn spreads a holy Majesty let a beauty in you be
Shines in me so nightly, certain in the fog of the sea.

In a soft mid-morning, turns thin to an onion skin,
Cool in a quiet waiting, so smooth the baldest pen,
Across a light Satori, we know in a sudden realize,
Unfolds a word together-opens every shape to size
Zen me in the ease of us that quickens deep within,
Connects the me so close to you, awakens us in sin,
A flash so bright in a moment, clear & simple, right
I know you every simple thing all the small tonight
Explains our slides away, your bottom curves walk,
Remember, all the time flashed before us as we talk,
Dawn spreads a holy Majesty let a beauty in you be
Shines in me so nightly, certain in the fog of the sea.
There comes a time in every one's night, a sudden flash of meaning, that often slips away, and I wonder when I visit the grave, what more is there to say, but then a soft, just you, drips a sudden bright that blinds me with meaning and helps me carry the loaded knife of you with me in the way. Satori
