in spite of…
after the curtain falls
and secrets begin
you look for the one you love
giving all you have
from what little you have left
dance with her, my love
dance with her and sing
and the curtain falls
after sighs begin
you hold the one you love
washing the night away
with wishes upon a star
dance with me, my love
dance with me and sing
when the curtain falls
and silence begins
even oceans have shorelines
and sandcastles are forever after
in this, a final bow
dance, my love
dance, my love and sing

your purpose…
The purpose of human life is, no matter who is controlling it,
is to love whoever is around to be loved.
– Kurt Vonnegut –
a lover’s plea…
riding the wind…
The ideal is…
a state, not of withdrawal,
but of heightened perceptiveness and responsiveness…
My mind concentrated and my body relaxed, bones and flesh fused completely,
I drifted with the wind East or West, like a leaf from a tree or a dry husk,
and never knew whether it was the wind that rode me or I that rode the wind.
– The Book of Lieh-Tzu –
an important conversation…
The conversation between your fingers and someone else’s skin.
This is the most important discussion you can ever have.
– Iain Thomas –
that’s where it’s at…
a leg up…
We can only be said to be alive in those moments when
our hearts are conscious of our treasures.
– Thorton Wilder –
we use intimacy…
…we use intimacy to refer to the physical when it really pertains to the spiritual…
