"Develop an interest in life as you see it; the people, things, literature, music – the world is so rich, simply throbbing with rich treasures, beautiful souls and interesting people. Forget yourself."
– Henry Miller
”If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.”

lyrics
you simmering heat
you morning dew
i have to quiet so far down to hear you
your yearning voice
your whispering
carries away the louder sounds i'm used to
i'm a rounded stone
in a trickling stream
a glowing coal enwombed in ashy bedding
erode away my name and face
my time and space
to deeper places than i've given you
relax your gates
my love awaits
to fold into your quiet depths and patient truths
to couple with
the subtle grace that lives in you...
you morning dew
i have to quiet so far down to hear you
your yearning voice
your whispering
carries away the louder sounds i'm used to
i'm a rounded stone
in a trickling stream
a glowing coal enwombed in ashy bedding
erode away my name and face
my time and space
to deeper places than i've given you
relax your gates
my love awaits
to fold into your quiet depths and patient truths
to couple with
the subtle grace that lives in you...
