O my soul
alive, naked, boundless
made finite in me

Restless
you waver
like billow and foam
precarious your energy

Beat my heart
your rhythm
so deep and feral
hear my plea

That I
with courage
set fluid

intention and action
like the man in the sea

Follow the jagged shore
Flow with the pitch and roll
Remember the rise and fall
and Believe...

O my soul
alive, naked, boundless
so finite in me

May I
with love
set febrile
compassion and vision
like a man from the sea



Behind the Song:
..a tribute to C.D.C. La Villa. My friend and father - truly a man from the sea!
