Rapid Heart Movement

from Hippocampus by Beth Patterson

/

lyrics

Wild-awake in dreaming-time
A secret meeting of the minds
Far beyond a dream impending
Thought and memory entwine

Truth to spawn imagination
Dwelling deep in fantasy
Diving headlong into danger
White-hot, searing ecstasy

Border between bliss and torment
Passion licks its swollen lips
Biting, tearing through a fever
Clenched in paroxysmal grip

Dewdrop petals parting, morning
Glory on its eager tongue
Madly jumping in the throat
The pulse of its delirium

Flesh is screaming for indulgence
While the mind is screaming ‘cease,’
Panting, ever begs the question
Does the heartbeat still increase?

Earth and heaven struggle fiercely
Only mortals left undone
Wrestle with an angel and your
Transformation has begun
