"My heart sought … a pearl beyond the shell of existence and time....." (Hafiz)
I catch your eye out of space-time, a breathless poise out of mind;
A pearl I lost and have long sought, but never dreamed I could find.
"My heart sought … a pearl beyond the shell of existence and time....."
I dance with you in my mind’s eye, and pour a rose for your mouth,
Or sip your kiss at a drunk's bar where vision comes to the blind.
"My heart sought … a pearl beyond the shell of existence and time....."
This love that draws me is so true, I lose my grip on the false:
It calls my heart from a jungle where lovers hunt but don’t find.
"My heart sought … a pearl beyond the shell of existence and time....."
This love that draws me is so true, my heart is aching to steal
A pearl for you from my life's shell, a nightingale from the wind.
"My heart sought … a pearl beyond the shell of existence and time....."
This love that draws me is so true, a heavenly moon in June
And bunch of red roses comes calling; I want to leave me behind.

Faith, Give This Who Man
04:25

spoken intro:
My days are lost in not doing the doing I still want to do.
If love could be my un-doing, my 'not' being love could unwind.
O love, your morning is so bright, 'I love you' loses its 'I'
And 'you' in long nights of longing, my blazed Eye leading the blind...
rap:
Faith, give this Who-Man, this Whither from Maybe, inspiration.
Love’s ailing craft tardis-drones in its base like a dying swan
“Earth has been Wasted,” the Wounded King twitters, “the Grail removed
Deep into Inner Space, angels retreating from mass destruction.”
“Find me the Grail and the Earth will be Saved,” the Grail Maiden sighs,
Dying, “and I’ll be your May Queen forever.” “All else is vacuum.”
Death croaks my Name: he’ll engrave it in Hell’s grinning Gate, DEATH
THE FINAL FRONTIER. “But Love is the I’s uncreation.”
"Ego’s the aggregate of ages of ignorant action
Dying to Love," tweets a Love that evolves Involution.
“Who? who are you?” jabs your talon…“I’m Nothing, without loving
You. All I am’s what I do and can’t undo to unbecome.”
Cloaking daggers, my spying cuck-Who’s little ‘I’ is so
Deep under cover his original mission’s forgotten.
Whistles blow, “Dance off your seven-veils in a do-or-die underworld
Thrilling romance of divinest Whodunnit detection.”
“Who!!! Who!!!” as platforms are lashed into bubbles by Biblical
Rain, “Find Nirvana from Auschwitz!!!” You Whooot through the station.
