Set my heart down in the green of mediaeval forests
And I will be one with life.
Lay down next to me, the virile body of Adam
And call me your Eve.
Send your faeries to weave flames of scarlet in my hair,
To blaze in the summer sun.
Let them take the aquamarine from the azure sky
And adorn my eyes.
Call forth the silver wolf to summon me to her side
And I will ride to freedom.
My body, naked, shielded by her maginificence
Safe from reality
Summon the gentle rains to expunge my tarnished soul
And my crimes will be erased.
Send armies of great gnomes to carry the sword of truth
To vanquish my foes.
Bid me drink and bathe in the blessed waters of life
And thus be reborn again
To a new world made sweet by the voice of the swallows.
Let me savor life.
Show me your love and your tender pity, dark angel.
Let me embrace the unicorn.
I know now, what I have done, to offend you that day.
Please, Lord, have mercy.
