I am the dust that blows in the direction of the four winds,
dancing in spirals like a butterfly rising from sleep.
I am the sun's rays that come & give you warmth.
For my bones are bound together by invisible threads
that vibrate in a chaotic flow seeming to give form.

I was there when the first man was born,
watching civilizations bloom & fall
with a blinking of my eye.

My eye is an eagle's,
observing everything as
I soar high above the Earth,
gliding into the shape of a mouse.
I am the hunter & the hunted merging.

I have felt the power of a mighty horse
rushing through my veins as
I swam into the Earth & rushed
through many lands on the current of great rivers.

In wild hills I have hunted wild boar,
dancing naked with skeletons with heads of bears,
drumming into the dawn.
I have seen that my arms are snakes
sliding towards the ground.

I have traveled through the deepest holes,
finding myself in caverns filled with a million bats that
sweep down onto my hair
as I stretch out to see wings unfold before me
as I fly into the night & watch the glitter of a thousand cities
speed by.

I am the lights of the city
beaming down onto the streets,
glowing for all to see my power.

Power. O power! O energy!
We are the same,
energy is what I travel on.
In body & mind fire carries me.

O fire, O flesh,
O bones, O Earth,
O dust we are wed,
in a dance of life.

I have felt the flesh & bones of men & women,
I dove into the heat of a giant fire,
& I declared I am the Alpha & Omega.
O brothers & sisters & animals & plants & minerals
We breathe & bleed together!
