Your Spirit And My Spirit

(album: The Unimaginable Life - 1997)

Your Spirit and my Spirit
Whirling round each other for eons
Let's be God this time
Let's be human
Let's be light
Let's be all that is dark

Everything you are I see
And seeing is loving
And loving is remembering
Because this blueprint of your heart
I carry inside me
For all time

This soul-memory of Spirit
Wakes me from my dream
Rips the veils, pierces the certainty
Of my ever-effusive despair
And I meet myself for the first time.

We are. And all that I've learned about life
And love and men and women
Is false and phony and obscene

Love, take me, rip me into shreds
Baptize me again and again
In the warm wetness of my own tears
Burn down my walls, fast and furious
Like a drunken, divine glass blower
For all my fear is camouflage
My rage is the fuel of my truth telling
My demons are at home now
All my days and nights are for Love.
