This remains the safest place, where

we perfect the cosmic play: here, the heart 

tendrils penetrate the dream pool, a caustic 

superfluidity of thoughts… timeless and eternal.

Here, our impulses dance within ocellate light

then hide, again, beneath translucent shadows.

Ascending, transcending, breath releases,

our desires realize their full potential.
