All the numbers swim together and all the shadows settle
Doors forced open shut again-
Doors forced open shut again-
A flytrap and a petal.
When all retreat and the moon is level, soft skin starts to shrivel
When dreams made real become less sweet-
When all retreat and the moon is level, soft skin starts to shrivel
When dreams made real become less sweet-
The orchid and the metal.
Eyes burn and claws rush in to fill them,
And in the morning after, night falls in love with the light-so clear.
And in the morning after, night falls in love with the light-so clear.
When will I have my eyes...

Phalaenopsis, 28th April, 2011, Auroville, Pondicherry.
