be sugar in a goblet of water

be sugar in a goblet of water
without thinking,
heart becomes captain
on the crystal ship

letting mind retire its insanity
swallowed by a sea urchin
to return to the sea
and in the spring succumb

its true colors within
a purple lotus
just barely gliding above
the peaceful waters

bringing us back to states
'oh innocence awaken'
bright up from a dream
of wishful thinking--

glints of light
slice through illusion's grip- 
opening palms
to face the sun

truth spills
from fingertips--
a fast forwarded eden:
now for every one
