|
When the little one came |
|
A hole was blown open |
|
A partial surrendering in the midst of knowing |
|
And for an instant the constant heart shed its own tears |
|
Wave upon wave carried me over |
|
Beyond the peripheries of hope and fear |
|
Deadening the voice of relentless biography |
|
I stood at the centre and danced at the extremities |
|
Mapping the city as subtle as silence |
|
Then on, outwards, into the darkness |
|
When the crazy one came |
|
She placed her finger on my forehead |
|
And pushed on through |
|
I woke up, face on fire |
|
Spitting out diamonds |
|
Thoroughly lost to logic |
|
Craving her madness |
