River
The beat of my heart lies in my words
The anguish of my desire in my lines
The joy's of my love fall upwards
Into my heaven, my blissful shrine
My feelings pour out of me
Like a rushing river, onto paper
The ink is red, the blood of the internal army
Which fights on inside me, preventing the depressing stupor
Which I would fall in without these words, these lines, this paper, these guidelines
These are the guidelines to my life, what I write
Only realized when I see them, dripping red
Only then do I feel what I really feel, only by paying homage to this Rite
This Rite of passing, rushing like a river, through my fingers, on ahead
Ahead of all thinking, ahead of all anything, only the rush
The rush of a river
