Shy and mighty hunter, is it I who's cursed the vow?
It is you for whom I have given myself to now
Fear! Take all sense of the absolute
Dismantle what's resolute
Fear! Take my fear
Teach me all I'll have to hide
To remain dignified
We caught free reason
I bled the gift I sewed: The sacrament
I poured an hourglass unseen from all
A vacant sense of agency to covet the private fall
In you lives a city of millions walking over brick frontiers
And an ocean
A body of water on which you drifted by grace
Like on the page I read, to pools of cool charity
Bitter morning plunge begets rebirth
In the sea of your beginning
It is you for whom I have given myself to now
Shy and mighty hunter, is it I who's cursed the vow?
It is you for whom I have given myself to now
In autumn bent beyond the iron legs of black benches
Where I was laid and uncoiled the romantic wellspring of old man's memory
When the world blue blocked Sun lived faces
Who faced the horizon of summer out, stoic in striped light fissures
Come and remain!
Like the vine that ate the earth
I'm swallowed in night with you, feral hemlock, slender blazing star
You quiver quiet violence in the theater of ineptitude
I only see you and the lovely light inside of you
While I've been yearning, I've been aching for time
It was time for the end, some natural decline
Relations defined and left, we find reasons to leave
But stay intertwined
Stay! Stay! Stay!
Beauty of the everglades
Give me the reasons to keep me this way
