Offering

Holy life that you liken to nothing

Bursts at the seams

All the while stem the tide

I have seen it in my dreams

Here a fount in the desert

It was more than i could be

Human life as a lesson

You will see the mess of me

Hear it there

Feel it swarming underneath

Oh when love came for me

The blue and salton sea

A thousand lives lived in circles

A planet burning at the seams

Skeletal sand as a lesson

That became an offering

River nigh, river light

Sent us burning out to sea

Holy love, if you let it

Never wanted it to be

You and i, you a lesson

But never offered it to me

Human life gone wild

It was not enough for me

You and i, you and i

Won’t grow

You and i, in our wild

Won’t listen

It was rife, it was rife

With unholy offerings

It was rife, it was rife

With the flowers of deceit
