(in medias res)
..and you come
Rising from the east
And you took me, all trembling with the dew.
In to your arms
Oh sun.
Dove fluttered upon..
The azure of your mantle
where I once stood guard.
Our kisses evoke low breezes
Down here
Among the leaves.
<><><>
Oh handsome hermit, for you my heart swoons
My hunters shout your name from the forest
My spies travel the hills.
(ANOTHER WOMAN)
Stop!
Unfasten the hooks.
I am not a woman,
I am a world!
(FIRST WOMAN)
Laugh now, my heart dances like a bee.
I have a host of merry tales, imagine the journey I make for thee.

Mountain

From between rocks, they came down.
The mountain, the path, these eunuchs.
Descending and filling and blocking the route.
Rocked in their litters, their arms stretched out.
Joining their hands
Heavy with rings
Before us they came
And they knelt down
And they tell us their troubles, they tell us their dreams
They tell us their desire for super human pleasures
It tortures them, they would gladly die
They have seen g*d calling to them from dreams
And their robes fell
'Oh no' they cry.. 'not yet'
With hands raised up
And penance to accept
<BREAK>
Trees bend down, my eyes close
The winter whistles through...
Postpone the world's beauty..
While darkness covers you

She hears, the noise of the feast,
The laughter, the dancing feet.
He knows, the wedding was false,
Her wolves.. run through the halls.
There where things , things he should have known,
He did not believe them, not any at all.
But when a mind is closed the heart cannot see
The train that's coming, or track that you lay.
POURED IN HIS EAR <> DRAWING HIM NEAR
JOY WE HAVE KNOWN <> PULLING ME HOME
FULL SWING OF THE ARM <> PROTECTOR FROM HARM
BAD DREAMS FROM THE CRIB <> THE PAIN THAT HE HID
DON'T CUT THE HAND <> DON'T SLAY THE LAMB
DEMON BE GONE! <> FAITHFUL BE STRONG
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH <> BRING ME MY STUFF
LEAVE HIM ALONE
..and he comes home, discovers deception
'Queen of Cups' it doesn't matter.. it doesn't matter .. it does, it does
cuts of forgiveness and cuts of blame
fling these red drops to earth
let them bloom like blossoms
let bloom, let them grow,
<>sedatives<>travel<>time
On the north wall rises a tower
Another, a third.. fourth and so on and so on...
In the eighth tower; a chapel and old bed.
I couldn't tell why would it need to be there.
But I knew I shouldn't ask her, I..
The first months in a foreign country are like a dream
I walk through the streets by myself
I inform myself of the customs of these people
I dressed as they do and drank tea in clear glasses.
But old thoughts travel. Home is not a place.. it's a time
In the shadow of the kingdom I visit the workshops,
Examining the great machines that carry water to the gardens
for they hardly gave me attention
they let me come and go as I please.
This is a kind of work
Your springtime will never come again.
