after body of water / excerpt from air play

i have grown weary of this life form


i have grown weary of this life


i have grown weary of this form



i have grown weary of this form of life


i have grown weary of this life of form



i have grown weary of this



i long for a life without form


i long for a life i can form


i long for a form i can like



the physical body separates you from me


the universal body dreams of union



the body of wisdom


is half-full of tears


or half-empty of tears


but full and overflowing with emptiness



the physical body separates you from peace


the universal body dreams of communion



the body of knowledge


is half-full of fears


or half-empty of fears


but full and overflowing with emptiness



the physical body separates


the universal body dreams



with which body do you fall in love?



the body of the heart


is half-full of tears


or half-empty of fears


but full and overflowing with emptiness



(the universal body separates you from fantasy


the physical body dreams of confusion)



i have grown weary of the earth


and the matters of the earth



i have grown weary of matter


and what matters



i have grown weary of birth


and what scatters



i have grown weary of earthly matters


and the emptiness of the heart



(the intelligence of the heart


is that it longs to be filled)



i long for a body of grace


i long for a body’s embrace


i long for a body to taste



i would fill it with the breath


of my love



in my dream


i am the bearer of joy


and all delights you enjoy



but here


i am the body of tears


filling the earth’s empty shore



the form of this earth


my only embrace



the life of this earth


my only store
