:: hidden place

through the warmthest cord of care
your love was sent to me
i'm not sure what to do with it
or where to put it

i'm so close to tear
S
and so close to
simply calling you up
and simply suggesting

we go to that hidden place .
å
 
now, i have been slightly shy
but i can smell a pinch of hope
to almost have allowed once fingers
to stroke
the fingers i was given to touch with
but careful careful

there lies my
©passion hidden
there lies my
©love
i'll hide it under a blanket
lull it to sleep

i'll keep it in a hidden place .
å

he's
the beautifullest
fragilest
still strong
dark and divine
and the littleness of his movements
hides himself

he invents a charm
that makes him invisible
hides in the hair

can i hide there too?
hide in the hair of him
seek solace
s a n c t u a r y

in that hidden place .

:: cocoon

who would have known : that a boy like him 
would have entered me lightly restoring my blisses

who would have known : that a boy like him
after sharing my core would stay going nowhere

who would have known : a beauty this immense
who would have known : a saintly trance
who would have known : miraculous breath
to inhale a beard loaded with courage

who would have known : that a boy like him
possessed of magical sensitivity
would approach a girl like me
who carresses
cradles
his head in a bosom

he slides inside
half awake / half asleep
we faint back
into sleephood
when i wake up
the second time in his arms : gorgeousness!
he's still inside me!

....?... who would have known ...?....

a train of pearls º º º º º º º º cabin by cabin 
is shot precisely across an ocean
from a mouth

from

a

from a mouth of a girl like me

                to a boy

                                to a boy

                                                to a boy

:: it's not up to you

i wake up
and the day feels broken
i tilt my head
i'm trying to get an angle

'cause the evening
i've always longed for
it could still happen

how do i master
the perfect day
six glasses of water
S
seven phonecalls

      if you leave it alone
      it might just happen
      anyway

it's not up to you
well, it never really was...

if you wake up
and the day feels a-broken
just lean into the crack

just lean into the crack

and it will 
t r e m b l e ever so nicely
notice
how it sparkles
down there

i can decide what i give
but it's not up to me
what i get given

      unthinkable surprises
      about to happen
      but what they are

it's not up to you
well, it never really was...

      there is too much
      clinging
      to peak
      there is too much

:: pagan poetry

pedalling through
the dark currents
h
i find an accurate copy
a blueprint
of the pleasure in me

          swirling
         
black lilies
          totally ripe

a secret code carved

          swirling
         
black lilies
          totally ripe


he offers a handshake
crooked
five fingers
they form a pattern
yet to be matched

          swirling
         
black lilies
          totally ripe


on the surface simplicity
but the darkest pit in me
is pagan poetry
pagan poetry

          swirling
         
black lilies
          totally ripe


.. .. . . ... . . ... ...  . .. . .... .  ... . ..

morse  : coded  : signals
they pulsate : they wake me up
from my
hibernate
 
on the surface simplicity
but the darkest pit in me

this time
i'm gonna keep me to myself
this time
i'm gonna keep my all to myself

but he makes me want to
hand myself over

and leap into

alive : with closed eyes

to dash

i have a recurrent dream
every time i lose my voice
i swallow little g l o w i n g lights
my mother and son baked for me
 
during the night
they do a trapeze walk
until they're in the sky
right above my bed
 
while i'm asleep
my mother and son pour into me
warm g l o w i n g oil
S
into my wide open throat

i have a recurrent dream
every time i feel a hoarseness
i swallow warm g l o w i n g lights
my mother and son baked for me

they make me feel so much better
they make me feel better

        
we have a recurrent dream
everytime we lose our voices
we dream we swallow little lights
our mother and sons bake for us

during the night
they do a little trapeze walk
until they're in the sky
right above our heads
right above our heads

while we're asleep
my mother and son pour into us
warm glowing oil
S
into our wide open throats

i have a recurrent dream...

they make me feel better
they make me feel better

:: harm of will

if there's a troubador washingh
it is he
if there's a man about town
it is he
it there's one to be sought
it is he
if there are nine she's
they are bought for me
 

this way is
as is she
and he placed her unclothed
long (long) longlegged

a t o p   t h e   f a m i l y   t r e e

and if he has chosen the point
while she is under him
then leave her coily placed
crouched
sucking
him
for it is i with 

h e r   o n   k n e e

i leave her
without pith
or feel
and leave her be : leave her be
for he controls
what there'll be
he makes
his face known to none
for if he is seen
then all will
and all will
know

know me

:: unison

one hand ©loves the other
so much on me

born    stubborn,    me
will always be
before you count 123
i will have grown my own private branch
of this tree

you : gardener
you : discipliner
domestically
i can obey all of your rules
and still be : be

i never thought i would compromise
i never thought i would compromise
i never thought i would compromise

     
let's unite tonight
      we shouldn't fight
      embrace you tight
      let's unite tonight

i    thrive    best
hermit style
with a beard and a pipe  
and a parrot on each side
but now i can't do this without you

i never thought i would compromise
i never thought i would compromise
i never thought i would compromise

      let's unite tonight
      we shouldn't fight
      embrace you tight
      let's unite tonight

one hand
©loves the other
so much on me

      let's unite tonight
      we shouldn't fight
      embrace you tight
      let's unite tonight

      let's unite tonight
      we shouldn't fight

it's in our hands : in our hands
it's all there :  in our hands

unecessarily?
aren't we trying too hard?

it's all here : it's in our hands

look no further

it's in our hands : it always was
it's in our hands

hafandi loðna löngun um mjaðmirnar

hafandi sjón sem að sér þegar það er slökkt
having eyes that can see in the dark


og gott bil milli fótanna
and too much space between the legs


kyrr!
calm down!

:: foot soldier
foot soldier
march ahead
enter the unknown
you will take the first step

foot soldier
blindfolded

you're babystepping
carefully treading
blindfolded
tread carefully

conquer the  d a r k n e s s 

into the darkness
foot soldier
and then we'll follow
but you go first
march ahead
but you go first
foot soldier
march ahead

oh thou that bowest 
thy ecstatic face
thy perfect sorrows
are the world's to keep

wherefore onto
thy knee
come we
with a prayer

oh thou that bowest
thy ecstatic face
thy perfect sorrows
are the world's to keep

wherefore onto
thy knee
come we
with a prayer

   
mother heroic
  
mother glorious

beholding in thy eye
immortal tears

oh thou that bowest
thy ecstatic face

oh...
