Fingers of snow
Flicker silvery
In the nascent night.
Somewhere apple blossoms shimmer,
...
Find myself in woman
Lose myself in women
Plough earth
Watch the ocean's rebirth
...
Nailed to splintered wood of the Sacred Cross
Your fathomless eyes wept a sea of blood
Each falling tear weaving a dance of loss
The world, now virgin, out of earth-swept flood;
...
Under a billowing canopy of stars
As pale as the drifting snow
Dawn disrobes her wedding gown
Steps ankle-deep into a river
...
In a canoe of bark are my daughters of chastity
As the warbling lark, swiftly they paddle down
The running waters of rhapsody;
How they flew down the frothy river's rapids.
...
Dimly, shrouds of mist part and a speckled faun
Dances up to the brides-maid's kiss; in a clearing
Of deep, green forest the mellifluous tones of an ivory harp
Float in the shimmering twilight; the songs unravel,
...
Saul mounted the horse with his band of men
Strong-minded in his mission of conquest
Going forth from gates of Jerusalem
Chastiser of the Cult, he'd be the best.
...
Oh Lord,
Hide me amongst
The roses strewn
Along your wrist
...
Spirit, fire, water
Immaculate daughter
Whom God chose
Incline thy ear
...
Paid for by a ransom
Beyond mans' capacity to know
Our sins washed snow-white
By the Blood of the slain Lamb
...
