We found a cave

A tunnel

Leading to the core


When headlamps die

We use our voices

To guide us

In the maze


Sound becomes chant

Chant becomes choir

On the beat

Of stalactite drops


What happens

Deep inside

The wanderer’s voice

Will lull it


In this cave

The enchanted song

Guides the growth

Of the roots


There is power

In our spines

Our back laying

On the ground


We can feed

On this force


There can’t be

A stronger bliss

Then when we connect

In the abyss

Where matter

Is still a chaotic noise


Bodies are songs

And we merge

In one compost

Spellbound

Love is to digest

Love is to ingest


We dug deep

Can you smell

Our flesh rotting

Can you smell

Life arising

From death


Guided by the voices

We grow out of the ground

To meet our first sun

A violent burn


Our skin has shed

Transparent and soft

Fragile and porous


In the vineyard

Our hides harden


We summon patience

For the thickening

of the wanderer’s shell


We yield to the forces

For power is also

To know

When to bend
