LP coming soon!

I see myself

Beyond deadlands

Where trees of health

Void lines of age

No sullen air

No requiem

In Bethlehem

Eternal light

Of womanhood

Supernal might,

Draw me to good

A long way,

Far from the mayhem,

In Bethlehem

Through grief, I climb

The toll of time,

A solemn flight

Beacon of sight

My private love

My silent song

In Bethlehem

Created world

Inside one pearl

And every grace

All in one place

To trickle down

Dust on the low grounds

No flooded plains

No borough flames

For heaven’s perch

Or mankind’s scourge

In Bethlehem

My private love song
