i could never monkeymind such a subtle terrain such a vast expanse i could never claim juxtapose this jagged edge of wantiing with the lotus heart of peaceful sublimation let me slip into this silent conversation
strip me of my certainty strip me down strip me of this longing strip me down
tempt me electricity lure me away from this greed for purity part these petals break me open pierce this laughing bloom taste the tender heart of me strip me down
strip me of my certainty strip me down strip me of this longing strip me down
out here on the precipice the trees are leaning from the weight of the wind let that passion move me let me be shaped so beautifully black my limbs upon the green in the wind and the rain and the first breath of spring all the canyons life carves into me my blood flows freely my heart is still beating still beating
strip me of my certainty strip me down strip me of this longing strip me down to bare skin and cool stone and summer sun and soft lips parting round me
