Thoroughly Lost to Logic

When the little one came

A hole was blown open

A partial surrendering in the midst of knowing

And for an instant the constant heart shed its own tears

Wave upon wave carried me over

Beyond the peripheries of hope and fear

Deadening the voice of relentless biography

I stood at the centre and danced at the extremities

Mapping the city as subtle as silence

Then on, outwards, into the darkness

When the crazy one came

She placed her finger on my forehead

And pushed on through

I woke up, face on fire

Spitting out diamonds

Thoroughly lost to logic

Craving her madness
