By GENIE NAKANO
casting down
on my skin, a silver moon
how can needs be fulfilled
when what is wanted
is not needed
waves rolling
across the sand
this is just a dream
tender and soft
I still believe in miracles
an ocean
shimmering with anima
pulls back and forth
back and forth…
make your footprints now
no matter
when or where
the tides, my blood
always feel
your lunar pull
darkness, lightness
yin yang, yang yin
woman…man
all sentient beings
have many lives
