be

be still
if still to me
still to my body

one (releasing and binding
and needful and releasing) alone
(you) happen(s) to be drawing near

you feel my heart(beat)
its some small tempest
our little sea in a bigger sea

where there is no shallow
the light never goes out
only my color changes

you make it easy
when you open me
your iamb oyster

the sky is full of pearls
and one small cry to let
you know youre really in

if (she)(they were)(it was)i
was(saying) (you)happen(s)
well (having)brought forth

life-breath


//

if still to him(self)

one
releasing and binding
needful and releasing
alone

happens (to be) drawing near
some small (what)

what said (he) Critias

if (she)
(they were)(it was)i was(saying)
(you)happen(s) well (having)brought forth
life-breath

εἰ ἔτι αὐτῷ
ἓν δὴ μόνον
τυγχάνει προσὸν
σμικρόν τι

τί; ἔφη ὁ Κριτίας

εἰ τὴν ψυχήν
ἦν δ᾽ ἐγώ
τυγχάνει εὖ πεφυκώς
