Mutiny of a Captain
by Vittorio Grieco
entrusting my wings
to endless flight
I bequeath my soul
for in the end it’s
Time . . .
that will tell
endless tales of
wild fairies and wicked ships
lost within foreign seas
uplifting winds
timelessly still
oh, sweet angelic wings
embracing the air
give me flight
for my feet have
given up this fight
oh, precious
Time . . .
have
you come
to give me rest
scattering hummingbirds
pausing within an instant moment
as I envelop another deep morning breath
Serenade to My Yogini
within your presence
my breath stops
within our pose
my body weeps
your exhale, my inhale
mindfully confused
wanting us to envelop
rhythmic tantric patterns
thumping heartbeats
syncopated lives
in ~ between the sun
and the moon
our love resurrects
our OM echoes
echoes
Ekos
