TRANSCRIPT
Lord, who createdest man in wealth and store,
Though foolishly he lost the same,
Decaying more and more,Till he becameMost poore:With theeO let me riseAs larks, harmoniously,And sing this day thy victories,Then shall the fall further the flight in me.
Who
Are you
Who is born
In the next room
So loud to my own
That I can hear the womb
Opening and the dark run
Over the ghost and the dropped son
Behind the wall thin as a wren’s bone?
In the birth bloody room unknown
To the burn and turn of time
And the heart print of man
Bows no baptism
But dark alone
Blessing on
The wild
Child.
silencio silencio silencio
silencio silencio silencio
silencio silencio silencio
silencio silencio silencio
silencio silencio silencio
Upon a glade of sun-sculpted
Pine forest, rooted in stone,
Layers of my bark peel away,Inviting a softer surface to emerge. I climbFar into the sky, following an eagle’s currentTo the sun–I melt into my sculptor...Nestled by Her vision, I hear a new call:"Go back to seed, and I will bring you Home."
