It only takes one human heart
To account for the whole world
Everything necessary is there
To explain how it all
Got started in the foundries
Of the gods how to wrap
A flame in streams of iron
Folding and folding it over
Pounding and pounding it
Plunging it into the water
Until it sings on its own
As the earth feeds our hearts
So our hearts feed the earth
We re-gift what we receive
I trade my heart for yours
Who knew these dying leaves
Were plotting another flower
