Water the wet,
the great sea that is the rest of me,
wherein the cold dark is found my deeper programming,
what all keeps me from bliss,
and my darling i lash out against sodden waves of desire,
treading tempests of self-recrimination--

in the end peace comes with relaxation,
and i float.

Beloved denying force,
the yielding resistance of boundless patience,
her great bounty the source of all life,
our trials to exercise our strength,
and i feel her ever in the salt of my blood,
forever pure--
in ignorance our pollution builds barriers to her loving nourishment,
so i and my kin imagine our waste an attack on her,
that beloved i taste your tears over our sad delusions.

Water the source of divinity,
grace of the universe,
all and one,
she is my muse, my heart, the flavour of life,
and i bow in reverence to her majesty,
the power of power--
beloved i belong to you.
