purple
(from the album, Purple Flower)

we graze upon
the flower
that
grows

beneath
the shade of
the lone tree
the northern border

of where the trees meet
in this land
if we choose
our

southern
course will lead
us toward the heavens
for us the flower is the

intersection of all
points of
existence
if

you
break it down
thats all it seems
to be their eternity

down the hillside they thundered paths
that follow
the

beasts
are the deep
grooves
mountains between

distant lands
the rocks age
as the
beasts

pass
lost feeling
for the soul
what we can keep


is what is our own
