give me a beam
give me a beam
made of wood
give me timbers
from dead standing trees
give me mortar
from the bones of the earth
.
the storms are coming
the light is heavy
I have no language but this
.
give me a beam
made of wood
give me timbers
from dead standing trees
give me mortar
from the bones of the earth

”The ancient is new”
AD> 2018, c.
I want a love with padding on it
Built with sturdy beams
Mortar made of finest clay
Conversation concerning years
Worshiping the bones of another
lusciously padded love stories
Full of loads of hope
talking love and family
about what matters most
it’s good to be so lucky
everything has brought us right here
right, here!
life right here is special
days are blessed
Even tho the food here is not always understandable,
we still enjoy every bite!
Maybe THAT’S the true secret of life –
don’t worry too much about understanding it
just enjoy everything!
shadows will gather in corners
the day will fall soft at our feet
as we slip gracefully into the fine night
