Tantric
Economy
Pleiades laughs
gesturing out the highway kind
sea spoken and reliquary
as afterimage
I was told you did
not hold the hand
I was told you would not burn the cusp
I was told you do not eat the buzzard
I was told you cannot lisp the scent
I was told you will not dance the shake
I was told you did not place ambrosia
I was told you cannot seem amusing
I was told you do not turn to slipping
I was told you would not please the triumph
I was told you cannot ask for singing
I was told you did not thirst penumbra
I was told you would not track resplendence
I was
I was
Burn and
not
Burn
Stone
Fruit
Rolling in the
caliphate
pre-emptive
purgatorial
lost linen as the weathered bread
Now standing as
the abolitionist
remarkably
gone
vampiric and miasmic
Totemic through
tragicomedy
believer and
believed
thrown once as stones to meet the eye
[try solution 1
over 3]
Song
Within
Pleaser roll the stone
Pleaser roll the stone
Pleaser roll the stone
Rain
Rain water on the hill
Hammock without
cockles
blinded by deliverance
walk in return
triumphant through oedipal
epiphany!
