Desire - In A Time Of Full Moon


Hello! play moon:

Be me no want in life!

Go easy then for our dream, a kiss

Sincerely drunk as from beauty

For frantic is my language

Beneath this gorgeous suit

A smooth spring picture bed

White at summer with sweet ache

For a blue-most woman, live of breast,

Who one pleased boy, so weak to crush

Urges shine a man yet up our shadow’s cry

Needing the skin we sing to fall as garden rain.
