That Moon Is On The Water

That moon is on the water. Like a silver thread Not knowing which way is best Not knowing which way is best to get back home. Shining in a lightning shiver Like an ancient snake Wondering if it can Truly swallow its tail. That moon is on the water. Like a silver thread And a spider is dangling. From a dewy web I am asking when I will get my portion. When will I get fed? I am asking when I will get a permanent home. I'm tired of hanging by a thread. That moon is on the water. Like a silver thread A waving lamp of my depth Lord, please stop playing netball with my soul. Quicksilver bird, now I'm free. Now I've reached the sea. Now I've reached the sky. I'm free-flying high.
