without a queen the locust swarm
turned the ground to black
descending like a shadowy tower on a fish's back
and scattered the sticks who crawled
like snakes in the sand
as the red clay took the form of a lizard
 [bad word] like a moth to the flame of my open hand

[while, in my little world...]
a speckled bird humbly inspired
ran across the road when it could have flown
and it made me smile
at the water's edge, Babylon

as the river wept for you, O'Zion!
the stones cry out,
bells shake the sky
all creation groans...

SHHHH!!!

gypsies like us should be stamped in solidarity

while waiting for the Mother Hen to gather me

your eyes to mine:

to mess with me."

at the garden's edge beneath a speechless sky
as his friends all slept
Jesus wept- and no wonder
and now you say you wanna be set free??
and wanna set me free???

a union with the One who never dies

[while, in my little world, I
patched a plaster wall
and in my little world, I was
waiting ( just dying )
to take offense at something
this is all there is in my sad little world]

in darkness a light shines
on you and on me

i never gathered figs from a thorny branch,
I never picked a [bad word] off a bramble bush
and for the past five - almost six years now! -
you know you haven't once looked at me
with kindness in your eyes
you say Judas is a brother of mine?
but sister in our darkness a light shines
and all I ever want to say for the rest of my life
is how the light is GOD
and through I've been mistaken
on this or that point
that light is nevertheless GOD
