lyrics
Before the brontide,
the petrichor left you petrified.
You push away precipitate.
You're drawn to drought and dry ground,
but douse and downburst drown your doubt.
Abnegate or acclimate.
Don't run away from this,
don't leave another gift unwrapped.
You were made to be loved.
Quit clenching up your fists,
with open palms and open lips, understand:
you were made to be loved.
We circumnavigate
still-life, manmade waterways
where the spirit speaks my name.
The Beaufort breaks now
and all the weathervanes are down.
Abnegate or acclimate.
