I have blossomed so much, I am the envy of the gardens.

We were green: we ripened and grew golden. The Sea terrified us: we learned how to drown. Squat and earthbound, we unfolded huge wings. We started sober: are love's startled drunkards. You hide me in your cloak of nothingness Reflect my ghost in your glass of being I am nothing, yet appear: transparent dream Where your eternity briefly trembles.

You've seen my descent, now watch my rising.

Something opens our wings. Something makes boredom and hurt disappear. Someone fills the cup in front of us: We taste only sacredness.

The mind says there is nothing beyond the physical world; the HEART says there is, and I've been there many times.

Know then that the body is merely a garment. Go seek the wearer, not the cloak.

The lion is most handsome when looking for food.
