release party
Track 8:
Release Party
Pomegranate
blue angels
and alleys smoke
signal songs
drifting round
discs of desire
we’ll climb higher
and higher
up royal mountain
riffs, kiss
a cross
the lines
of shame
those borders with
unspeakable names;
you wrote this passage
rite
tonight’s
faux pas
are dawn’s
applause
chance
dance steps
based
on what you thought
you should
erase
for even as you try
to rewind
the ribbons
of rain
bon
me revoilà
au coeur du destin
une tulipe
perçant enfin
ma page
blanche sang
défenses
ma langue survenante
un papillon passeport
trafiquant l’or
de mes lapsus trésors;
aucune tempête
de circonstances
n’enneigera cette fleur de
transcendance
je rêve d’un
sentiment d’appartenance
will you be my
pièce de résistance
in this common quest for
sovereignty of the soul?
I dream of border
less control
incantations rock ‘n’ roll
invitation drumrolls
to a party
of release
rhythmic threads of
redemption
left hanging from a
heartbeat
beyond the seventh sky
sewing third
compassionate eyes
into all free and
willing wings of
intention!
