The Intimacy of the World With the World

Lyrics

The only reason I'm moved seeing clouds and hills mingle Is because the intimacy of the world otherwise stays hidden Even though I know it's there (In animals calling In the cave overflowing In the food I've built on In the song of the bat And in rotting bodies unfolding) I am touched each time I can see hand-holding Mist married to branches married to me with my eyes Stopping my work for a moment to say "What a generous place is unveiling here!" And "Thank you. We have enough."
