Fourteen long years she lies oh she lies oh
Eb

And love as she lies she dreams

in white stone
Eb
Dm
Colonnade marbled and balcony empty
Eb

Fourteen years she dreams
oh she dreams oh
Am
Dm
As dreamer she dreams
on, as lover entwines
Am

Her limbs grow round his limbs,
she drinks from a bottle
lost and then found

further back scattered

Spreadeagled like starfish,
most pain and most fear
Like flower of sea- grass,

most fragile and harmless

Most fiery and bloody,
most childlike and wrinkled

This starfish, this spider, most

On which we neither come nor go"

She smiles at me lake- wide,
wet- brown- eyed and dark- skinned

Some dark moon unmoved stalks
Am
through our loss
Em

"Do not spend this night with me
Am

I shall make the fallen blind see"

from broken girl gift to broken boy
Em

I ask my sea- blue rushing
mother:
F

"Shall she hear the lions roar?"
