Scilla's prayer

shhhhh, 

quiet now,

shhhhh, 


oh my soul, 

let it go,

let this demonic wave pass, 


let the poor child flee,

let her go to the happy madness of 

we who’ve  braved the chaos of broken hearts and lonely days


let the crying lady 

enter her era of silence and observation 

let her weep, weep, weep,  and suddenly stand!


let her run hurriedly into this abyss, 

let her  test willfully, the stupid of her curious,

shhhhh


quiet now, 

oh my soul, 

let it go...


she's busy and empty,

a meek little sheep, 

let it go...


let her seek this silly paradise, 

where the God she loves resides, 

let her walk…


let her pray 

let her try, 

let her find this evasive thing



* from the rising sun to the shifting moon*

everyday of her life 

Oh Yahweh! 


 meet her there...
