I stand above the tree level I am a tree I catch wind storm breaths My branches claw I drink sky It stretches me I don't care I catch jokes and luck from tall thin blue air

Strike deep, divide us from cheap-got doubt, Leap, leap between us and the easy out Teach us to seize, to use, to sleep well, to let go Let our loves, freed in us, gaudy and graceful, grow.
