Moved from a shack to a barn

The hearth of this household has long since grown cold
And I’ve swept out the ashes of all that once was

And bundled faggots of the nine sacred woods
Awaiting the spark from the bow and the bowl
Building the fire that glitters your eyes

Dancing my circle contrary to yours
Chancing to touch whenever we pass
Daring to catch the scent of your youth
To quicken the Sun to the pull of the Moon

Shall we walk one another to the dark of the bower?
Your hand on my arm, as you’d stroll with a lover

When we’ve filled our May baskets
With our songs of each other, with our hopes for the future
And hang them together
Then, lay down beneath them and startle the heather

Bedewed and washed clean in the waters of May
Bejeweled and beguiled with what we’ve just found
Become wedded in thoth for a year and a day

Excellente m'bro


What are you my god? You touch me like you are my god
What are you my twin? You affect me like you are my twin.

Go Alanis!
