I want to stand on the heels of the stars
And kiss the moon increasing my light
I want to dance with the whirling of the wind
And kill the beats of birds that prey
I want to marry fireflies in the night
And have them glow even when there is light
I want to sing songs with ten mouths
And have the love of all suppressed
I need ten thousand goodie tongues
To speak to hearts and kill their fears
And I wish you live and love yourself
Like the peacock with its beauty and feathers.
