Back in One Piece


Sacred sense, turning in and out Head case, my brain banged up still Now my heart is off kilter, again, still News of you and me Singing a basso profundo intonation Chorus swelling under the lamplight In a new dream you lay your sweet head heavily on my shoulder The snow fell from a gray yellow teeming sky The world looked like it might be the end of the world The road home was uncertain Maybe no one would make it back in one piece Then the clouds cleared The sun was hot The place where we had been opened all the windows Tore open the walls Walls that were weren’t Staircases dissolved There was water to be seen everywhere Expansive panoramic visionary breathful airbright New.

Lovely. . .The imagery is astounding. Makes me feel like I'm lost somewhere between the land and sky. . .
