Untitled

As a river flows into the sun, may a spirit flow 
Its appalling morality, the divisions it has created 
The mind knows without it sacred 

We take life in your painting us 
Even drawing out of oblivion fades 
Assures incessant sorrow 

Tied in a single garment of destiny 
Disobedience to the messenger, an undertone form 
Deepest place in our soul 

If only I had wings like a dove 
Lift up the stone, and you will find me anew 
He utters a vote, the terrain moves
