Spinning

For Magpie Tales

Spinning spinning spinning

i sway to the fierce music

witness the not guilty

look for the mossy soul that weeps

dancing not for praise

but for disappearing

with no woe and a glint in my eye

i dance for going

to enter the light 

to seek the hushed place

for my soul to shine

Spinning spinning spinning
