Asterion 03:14
He's a silver one who runs through deep snow his horns are the only ones I know his hoofbeats are my drums they move me to leave my flesh behind you can carry me in your hinting eyes i will dance in between your silver thighs when I leave my flesh behind through soliloquy of silver lines Three voices in one mouth mountain heaven underground Now that I am here again breathing in the dirt holding turquoise stones The crescent shapes of bodies curled around me gone most of what I remember slipped into snow i came back in the morning and it's dark now it's my gift to press my lips into your shining brow Three voices in one mouth mountain heaven underground

The heat drew the ironwood songs Stand tall like a banded gecko you can take that wherever you go ambrosia ambrosia That cotton root's got that fire and blood Saunter down that slender line Filled with Silver and Moon light and sing and sing and sing loud and sing The sunlight is the beacon of the white bone cross where I left them The golden mystic he can tend them I loved him l loved him Life giving embrace, wild tongue of the snake Whole Here we go here we go again Sing me whole sing me whole sing me whole again.

Heard you walking through the storm your the kind that burns with a bright light Lion eyes climb the walls reach out higher You are a secret treasure that i have begun to know oh seeker we go down to the rivers. Live birth die live again silver white silver lines remember Lion eyes climb the walls Lion eyes Reach out higher See I was lost when there was nothing left I knew i found much more strength Everything came flooding in and everything came pouring out again. Lion eyes climb the walls reach up higher. Live birth love die live again silver white silver lines remember oh honey bejeweled eyes. remember

Clay Halos 03:33
Nine points are the horns that run through the milk. Nine points are the gates that open to the dreamer Stir me into Lazuli Breathe me into the beauty Clay Halos Clay Halos Colors of sand jaguar sienna when you touch my body colors fly out of my mouth when you touch my body worlds within worlds licked kissed and learned Clay Halos Clay Halos I saw your smile running through the tattoos on my thigh sweet and hot I be rubbing star cream on my honey's heart sweet and hot clouds of hooded cobra smiling diamond eyes. he paints on a river road. vultures everywhere Clay Halos Clay Halos Toe shoes and cloud ringlets gay kingdoms of mysterious queer ones.

Delicious taste opening archways coral mouth in bloom extensions into heavens I found a way to taste starlight forever When i return i promise to visit you first in the heat and sunrise in the heat and sunrise I found a way to taste starlight forever

Riding through a thunder Stretches of a darkness searching in the center center of the sun Circling Vultures sweeping out the histories sweeping our the violence It comes undone All the passes passes through a darkness through the clouds I call in home home is where the heart is following the mountains Sierra Madres I remember who I am Come Home See the long green table full of family full of loved ones that have gone before they the singers Streaming voices calling Ceremony Come Home Cradle of the hush inside the breaking of the storm Cradle of the hush in the Chiricahuas I see a form shaping shaping in the dew light shaping n the lightening sky islands there's a fineness akin to the panther through the blood and dust he's singing me through Come home come home When I take him in my arms, feel my strength when I take him in my arms, that's my song When I take him in my arms, feel my strength thats my song

The world can break it's just hard to stay no I won't let you down turn it over weave that starlight clear and cloudless I'm suckin nectar You can show me summer you can show me rain reviving beauty through mending dreams I'm dancing barefoot through dust and leaves It's an animal moon howl rattle of the shake rattle of the shake A chariot untied Let's ride Let's ride Nothing yet everything is true in the dream we chose all we are all that we have been stirring up the stars stir stir it in to the mix taste a little glimpse and stir it in transfixed transmission of the lost scrolls i'm crossing roads Rattle of the shake Trans Let's dance let's dance Trans A Chariot untied let's ride we're living 7 lives let's ride Hold me tender in my house of flame and rivers

There's a wicked light in lover's eyes in his hand's he grips my thighs to toss me up in the night sky like a twirling twine my dress becomes alive Infinite Dreamer - Spinning and Weeping There's a sweet light in my lover's eyes I climb high up to his cheekbones and press my lips the secret desert moans said pass me the cup of honeycomb pass me the cup of honeycomb sweet and low Infinite dreamer His heart contains a swagger, coral wreaths of fire He of many faces hang in silver mirrors. He only sees me in the water In the light of the last moon he shed the skin In the light of the last moon he slipped beneath to be with me In the light of the last moon he slipped beneath to be with me.

In the center this is where i am walking And When you reach my heart it's mountain it's a mountain the saguaro they are thick and they are green the rivers run clear and they are clean they tumble down into everything And When you reach my heart it's a mountain it's a mountain the cracks like paths to new names to more change this is where i am walking pulling thunder pulling thunder pulling thunder in the dark in the street in the street in the wildest dreams you brought me here jaguar And when you reach the heart it's a mountain
