You have felt it too I think beloved
Felt resisted and rebelled
Rose up in indignation and rebelled
Sick of it all the indignity
Of mask posture and stilted performance
Let the world return to its first state
Let it reform resolve into rock fire and water

Never was it the case that rock does rock
Always was it that rock shows rock
As fire shows fire and water water
And we have known rock fire and water
For never was it the case that we have not known them
And yet when we have been apart I have said
My beloved does love me

We do not know you and I nor need to know
The rockiness of rock nor fiery fire watery water
But never have we not known that rock must have extent
That water must settle into currents
Though hidden in strata or in the wave-encrusted depths
That rock shows rock obviates commentary
The regularities of hiding and showing

Perhaps a world of being props the ornate grimace
A fire that shines within the flame
Perhaps all are doomed to suffer
The stern procedures of the will
Not least perhaps the will to dis-cover
To find a cadence lofty to express
The beloved loves
