Heavy

Zooming in from a distant night Through clouds of storm and slowed down light The mistress of shadows in a meadow on a rock Is picking a lock as the mossy trees talk Awakened in a pond the turtle comes forth With promise of action as secrets unfold Sleepers are walking with blindfold and book A push through the fabric is all that it took In a whirlwind of truth the center was clear On the back of a turtle I waded through fear Heavy is the dream as I burn in the sun Heavy is the dream as I fall just for fun Zooming out from an endless flight Through oceans of doubt and left here or right The master of illusions in a field on a stone Is setting a trap in a bull's hip bone Always on it's toes the turtle sees all With mouthfuls of brilliance she gives me the ball As serpents are writing it down in my book A push through the fabric is all that it took
