slip road lost gods selling their souls for a ride
break the surface of bedsheets fresh spring air
dawn light buddha sits on a lotus of fire
there it is the freedom you seek in the space between finite and infinite
night winds drawn into the vortex of bedsheets
her pale body and tangents she brings to bed
against a backdrop of purple fire buddha’s lotus
dawn mist fades a piece of paradise revealed
sky fire pours through concrete slit
