We will fight sea monsters
On this Ship made of pillows and cotton sails
We will be slapped by salty spray
With Tangled hair and shiny eyes
*Grab your finest sword*

we'll see the world
sideways and downways
and insideout-way

we’ll see the trees
lying and hanging
and feel the clouds beneath our feet

*bring your finest hat*

stalking Nature’s elixir,

A pathological madwoman

As if you were robbing the world
of its greatest gift
*breathe*

plant ivy on my grave
to crawl and grow
and regrow again

plant ivy on my grave
so I might be a berry,
polished by dew
and nibbled by sparrows

so I might see
the ends of the earth
forever

a flight, a flash,
a break between the trees
because,

I am
