Talisman

We left our hearts to riot within themselves
and there is nothing sweeter then,
being under shade of a thousand arrows
There is nothing more vicious then
my conscience attacking itself

Well, I will break down
and hide it behind a velvet curtain
I will call upon my Talisman,
whisper up many prayers
Sing onto a sky
any sky
your sky

I wish I were in Wyoming
taking photographs of buffalo
and later seeing your ghost hiss from the fire
I wish that, very much

I am drawn to you
as any one thing could be
Just as every ship is drawn north
or destines itself for land,
I would like to breach you
climb your body like a great pilgrimage
swim across your cold waters

and
drown

Alluring.

Captivating.
You really swept me off my feet with this one.
