Leap in the river and explore its warmth

Watch quick liquids steal your form

As the current pulls you under the moon

Flowing whispers sounding soon

Now feel the light and watch cheerful faces

Take joy in all bright spaces

Where the ones you love tread soft and spoken

Your heart beats loudly woken

By the laughing voices touching your ears

Each cheek wet with joyful tears

And under lunar glow water is home

Built by the golden beams shown

Flow with these faces for the rest of time

Under light brightly lit kind

Jinx

The secret jinx wastes within our dreams
Subsisting on tapestries of thought
He eats existence from their seams
And drinks threaded hope once held taut

The fiend slips through brightly woven minds
Consuming the most vivid shades of essence
And in our pale digested fabrics we find
A roughly sewn childlike presence

So from this young cloth we must return
And witness our jinxes starve and fall
As we light the match and watch him burn
Our new forms breathe from ash and crawl
