The Lay of the Land If my thoughts had wings Or better still, had arrows and a bow To pierce your heart You will open your emerald eyes As only seen in the sea of Greenland Seek my embrace We will be the sky and the earth Filling the air with fog Before we make love Our Titanic love is too great for Sluggish humanity to clasp Kiss me slowly, caress me long we will purify a putrefied world.
