I dance to her music
She seizes my soul
She sings to me
Always
She's always known

She sings through you
She's always been jealous

(I think
Maybe you should know I've only met her a couple times
She's just crazy like that
Powerful
Crazy
Beautiful
Infinite
Woman)

*********************

Love love love

Hear it in the trees

Hear the cottonwood?
Hear the willow?
Hear the maple?
Hear the magnolia?

Love love love love

Watch the inchworm
Closely
Watch him struggle
Struggle to be upright
Struggle to reach
The leaf
Source of his life
Source of his universe…

**********************

Ah
The other half is dark

Lucy

Smoky

Blanca Bean

The other half
Is all
Cat

Listen to a cat
Closely
And you hear
Cat cat cat cat cat cat cat cat cat cat cat cat

O
Cat
Mysterious creature of the moon
Sleep when you need to
Eat after you ask from Mommy
Play when you feel like it
Be
Sense
Feel
Love your soul
Your master
Your mother
Your soul mate

Protect her
Keep her
Love her
Want her

Cats come
When there is pain
They're the protectors
They're the mouse eaters
(If we want them to be)

Love a cat:
Love yourself

**********************************

Dark
What will we say about the dark

We know
It has been scary
It's taken away the light

Light is good
Light resuscitates
Light brings us from sleep
And maybe…
Nightmare

Or maybe
Glorious
Intricate
Dreams

Let me tell you
I've wanted to live there
I thought I could go to sleep
Turn inside out
And live there

But right now
I'm awake

I didn't want to die…

I wanted to live
On the other side
