Prana Ferox

Spoken:
 (you wake up in the morning feeling gloriously alive
 with the firm conviction that the problems that disturbed you in the past
 will now disappear disappear disappear
 into the midnight of your consciousness.)
 I went down to the basement
 to check up on the sour mash
 I looked down to the nonreactive ceramic tub
 it was bubbling.
 I had stirred up the dust on the stairs coming down.
 I saw the dust devils swarming around.
 incoming sun beams cut them apart.
 and I watched a shadow pass across my heart.
 you were upstairs in the kitchen with your head against the sink.
 trying to cool down.
 trying to cool down.
 I know you don't believe me but I could hear you breathing
 I looked into the tub and there the mixture was seething
 with new life.
 new life all around.
 I had stirred up the dust on the stairs coming down.
 you were upstairs in the kitchen with your head against the sink.
 trying to cool down.
 trying to cool down.
 yeah.
