Shake the sky for me
and bring me a dream,

castanets and crickets calling,

can i follow you zenman,

along the path of rainbowed petals
fallen?

will u lead me to my self somehow?

or have i simply lost all way?

Ah, like this a lot.  And yes, the path is written upon the map held inside your soul.  Sit still, it will whisper your direction.

"Shake the sky for me

castanets and crickets calling,"

I think you can do that yourself, Inkedgoddess.  I loved those lines, though, "castament and crickets calling" -- bless your gypsy spirit!   ....jo

The cloud-drawn moon
splits the sky in pieces-
in that celestial void
beyond wakefulness and dreams
paint your rainbow.
