I speak what can not be spoken of
In the dark about being in the dark Ignorant of being ignorant because I was ignorant Like a blind man painting a picture They told me but i could not see it They showed me but i could not hear it Trying to feel with the mind Rather than the heart of mystery Covering the world with leather Rather than wearing my shoes Writing songs about what can not be sung On the tablature of silence Song sung blue at raptures door Laughing at the paradoxical travesty uncloaked The turning of my tears Inside out Crying at what is not sad Tears of joy Bursting into laughter at what was not funny Liberation in the catastrophic Entertaining the heart with disillusionment The hurricane came And the wind blew down all the walls that kept us apart And we laughed like an insane man As we embraced one another Our hearts left lighter Robbed of our certainty of the universes malicious intention The grave became the womb A doorway into being Beautiful in unbecoming Like rust that distinguished a fading antique Its value in its impermanence Revelation of worth found in loss Appreciation released in the bittersweet symphony of disintegration And the music of my weeping suddenly became melodious And now you have burnt all my bridges built for me behind me And their flames light the path before me Break me to make me A masterpiece now The art of precious scars The love that broke it mended it Like the spirit of Kintsukuroi |
