Aude Sapare: Drunk On Communion

He who claims to know no fear of death Falls with the poisoned wine of lies Upon his lips; But he who may make this fear a friend Shall grasp Eternity in the end. His heart will open as his reason slips As he feels upon his final breath He dances as his spirit flies And in that Space Between the sea and sky He sees the Beloveds' face Eye to eye. Merge with the drops in the ocean of time, Drunk on communion with all things Divine. The Universe dances - how sweetly She sings! Through the manifest beauty in all living things The answer lies deep in the fruit of the vine, The lover finds love in the taste of his wine. The stars shine in blackness Whirling through infinite space Casting their light On the unbounded dark; We seek to stand firm, impressing our mark On our lives swift and bright Asking history to honor and to bless Our efforts in this threshing-floor race. We all are unbounded United yet free, The Beloved is with us If we could but see. Step in the river and lose yourself there Dance 'round the fire without any care. The stars do their spiral dance over our heads We have all we want once desire is shed. For this is the answer, so simple and true: You live within me as I live within you. To seek wealth and fame Is to sail upon sand; The thirst for possession Can never be quenched. Ambition's a prison, your heart is entrenched In small thoughts' concessions You lose sight of the game. Your freedom awaits you, just stretch forth your hand The Beloved will embrace you And win you to Truth; Then dance with you, smiling Eternal in youth.
