Can you imagine? Can you imagine? Can you imagine walking around with the very word of art enshrined inside of you? Because the word of salvation is art. It gets inside you, inside me. And the words that I speak are spirit, and are Art.

Come wallow with me,
Where the wind reaps and sows-
Out of winter’s white darkness,
To the forest we go.
The candles melt into the pavement,
The trees come alive at your touch-
It’s been so long since you’ve been back,
How dearly we missed you so much!

Come wallow with me,
Through the high ways and low-
Into misty white rivers,
Through the October snow.
The laughter will get you from under,
The blackbird will kneel at your feet-
It’s been so long since we‘ve seen you,
In the woods where we finally meet.

Come wallow with me,
through the depths of my mind-
in the swampiest nights,
meeting beasts of all kinds.
The sweat will freeze on your forehead,
The lions will eat you alive-
I’ve known it since the day I was born,
You’ll know it since the day you died
