Second Moving Day/Attendant Prayer 2nd moving day Stop keeping score. That defines the loser.
Take off your robes, get off your horse
It is long in the tooth
And was never a thoroughbred.

Listen to this fugue.
Slowly, slowly, begin to move -
First you must choose, then disrobe.
Every cloak, every garment no matter how dear

If it is ragged it had to go anyway
If it is new it will keep past the song
If it proves to be the cloak you choose
You can replace it with rivets instead of screws

Or you can lose your buttons and zippers too
You can realize love.
Submit to the song, simply allow it ?
You will wear the warm and exhibit the exquisite.

Attendant prayer
ohgod I want to transcend
the ugly the mean
I want to stop keeping score
I want to burn his robe and shoot his horse
I want I want I want all day and night
all of my life all of his life
for ALL to be ALL
and to know it.
