Perfection and Letters

The moon is my mentor
The moon is my friend
She teaches me to love
She teaches me to Bend

I've fallen to pieces
And I fit together better
I'd never trade these cracks and creases
For perfection or letters

A, B, C, D, F, PhD
They amount to letters
On papers behind glass
Glass behind dust
Dust behind stacks

They account for your debt
They account for your lust
To chase all that paper
Till you've run amuck

Amuck with desires
Amuck with pretends
You're living a story
You never could end

Come back to the forest
Come back to the sea
Come back to the desert
Where you can be free

Then we'll dance together
We'll play in the mud and the sand
We'll live like the ancients:
Artists unmanned

The clouds will conform
To our conscious skies
We'll travel forever
Among the stars and the sighs

I’ll love you tomorrow
I love you today
I’ll you forever
Even if you say hate
