Tie a knot
deep in me
Where no one knows
what no one sees

Spindle axis
line set true
Hold my heart
and pull me through

Silken staircase
mystery
Woven worlds
and words indeed

Draw the lightning
from the earth
Strike the morning
with second birth

Layers round
the circle spread
like the memory
in my head

Here we paint
our picture dark
until the vision
creates the spark

Then shall I know
this undertow
is more than a current
letting go

And I will hear
the ocean swell
and break the bonds
of this cell
