I take a knife
to cut the river
in two

I stop the wind
to ask
why

I trust
in what I cannot
name

Audio:

christ

the silence
between us
divines

when we have
nothing
but each other

all
is
birth

nothing
is
impossible

Audio:

without one
I am not
in

locked
out of my
own

told
to disappear
from the threshold

I am
am I not
gift

mystery
beyond
measure

of this
I cannot be
outside

but a lie
keeps whispering:
pay

to pass

Audio:

the way

to
go

to know

in her
eyes

her
taste
turns

her
feet

equinox

there
light and dark
one

with
with
with

sister
brother
kin

where
to
know

Audio:

serve it
time after time
it loses
its inwardness

ever
empty
