ESTRADA (Track 8 on Beautiful Dream)

splintered night
heart weaves fingers through threads of stray twilight
 whispered sound
life-breath dances on unstuck strings tightly wound

water mirror, close your eyes
currents breathe roads through the skies
pulse of flooded rivers rise
we walk along estrada

mudded bank
arms full of lifetimes, these shores that drank night and day
webs of grace
reeds reach for studded skies as diamonds race on and on

water mirror, close your eyes
currents breathe roads through the skies
pulse of flooded rivers rise
we walk along estrada
