Soul of Art
Please universal soul, let me be
Ecstatic with what you give to me
All suffering let me pass on like changed clothes
All joy let me radiate like the elation
Of creativity, as art hidden completely
From those who cannot see
Like silence, I want to recognize
The spirit in-between time and space
An essential breeze of the sun’s youth
In my imagination an information flows
That comes from some other source
That I attribute all my love
It passes through me like time
I feel it in my veins like water
My heart a birdsong tribute of gratitude
In the open ocean’s width of horizons
An all-encompassing peace
My place is placelessness
My trace is the trance of soul in body
My breath the breathing human body
This being bankrupt to purity
This hope always seeking salvation
In the elements of the future.
