Perception in April

Of my condition

Secret faults concealed no more.

Withdrawn to look

At my condition

Secret faults concealed no more.

A lighter touch

A smoother line

Excesses cut

Simpiicily

And secret faults concealed no more.

The going forth

Prepared with prayer

The timed return

Redeemed with prayer

The aspiration

Found again

I start again

With secret faults concealed no more.

The talking voice

Four hours and days

The singing voice

To utter praise

A bit of land

A woman too

Grapes or figs

And metaphors

Insight illumination

Secret faults concealed no more,
