Chatterbox, Pt. 2

One hundred purple lotus in the lake
In the middle where it’s still
One hundred purple lotus on a mirror
Where it’s dark and deep
Accessible only to bees and hummingbirds
They don’t see their beauty, they only see the food
I wish I was a leaf that could float over the surface
Instead of a person who would sink down among the roots
And snakes and seamonsters who bump against my legs
Suitcase full of candles, hat stuffed with prayers
The candles drop out one by one
They fall and roll across the floor
White and perfect, unlit souls
And the prayers escape into the air, dark vapors in the night
Am I asleep or am I awake?
Do I like pie or do I like cake?
Am I here or am I there?
In my bed or in my chair?
Who knows what, if what is there?
Standing in a sandbox, kicking over castles
Didn’t anyone ever tell you?
If you stand deep enough in a hole during the day
You can see the stars
Megawatts, electric sparks
Crackling deep into the dark
Reaching fingers seeking out
On the ground our small white hearts
Pulling together our positives and negatives
In the thunder and the storms
We’ll feel together and alone
Our tiny feelings sprouting beside us, encircling us
Illuminated in the flashes of the sky
They grow a little each time we see them
Small buds and tender shoots in a garden fed by lightning
We’ll sit together breathing in the earth and sky while
Trees tower over our heads, blowing madly north to south
We’ll be together and alone
Blue heaven high heaven dear heaven real heaven all heaven
My heaven yes heaven seventh heaven ripe heaven
Smile heaven sleep heaven deep heaven clear heaven
Any heaven more heaven floating heaven warm heaven
Soft heaven home heaven new heaven yummy heaven
Free heaven live heaven silent heaven holy heaven
Simply heaven sweet heaven fluffy heaven this heaven
Happy heaven wide heaven endless heaven our heaven
Be heaven fine heaven light heaven white heaven bright heaven
Praise heaven tender heaven still heaven one heaven
Forever heaven how heaven now heaven
Heaven is now heaven on earth
