The moon’s orb waxes and wanes/
On me for days, like a holiday without limits
Prize emotions, going into battle
Mortality, salty and sweet –
–
Sickness melts into health
Abandonment into revelation
My longing for the music of the soul
Cannot be kept down for long, the
Tambourine-sun of my heart/
Is Venus personified, shinning like
Heart break spread upon rosebuds
Of the playing in concert of final compassion
–
I obliterate pain, with eye medicine
My vision exceeds night-fantasy
The ground underfoot becomes
A living hue of the plumb and culprit grace
All-around, that we are sometimes blind to/
I have been lifted by Jupiter, to the highest throne
The dawn where love is more, than merely
A person, or a personal salvation
–
I am the criss-cross of splendour, a student
Of wishes that turn to subtle praise
For the exceeding wisdom in existence
Listen, for the light of my owlish grin.

Nicely done. Wuji. I always marvel at the subtlety of small changes, and what they do to meanings. For instance, “…a student of wishes that turn…” can become “…a student of wishes which turns…”
