“Sing little boxDon't let sleep overtake youThe world's awake within youIn your four-sided emptinessWe turn distance into nearnessForgetfulness into memoryDon't let your nails come looseFor the very first timeWe watch sights beyond this worldThrough your keyholeTurn your key in our mouthsSwallow words and numbersOut of your songDon't let your lid fly openYour bottom dropSing little box”
“Let your words be your voice. And let your voice be heard within the hearts of others.”
“Don't let sleep overtake you; the world's awake within you.”
“Let me peer out at the worldthrough your lens. (Maybe I'll shudder,or gasp, or tilt my head in a question.)Let me see how your blueis my turquoise and my orangeis your gold. Suddenly binarystars, we have startlinggravity. Let's comparescintillation - let's sharestarlight.”
“Dive deeply into the miracle of life and let the tips of your wings be burnt by the flame, let your feet be lacerated by the thorns, let your heart be stirred by human emotion, and let your soul be lifted beyond the earth.”
“You can resolve to live your life with integrity. Let your credo be this: Let the lie come into the world, let it even triumph. But not through me.”
