Jesse Correll - Inner Shibori

Started out clean white silk
Spotless, folded and bound
Dipped in Japanese indigo
'Til I felt like I'd drown
I absorbed all the darkness
I was forever transformed
Once I loosed what was binding me
Saw how I'd been adorned
All these blue and white lines of mine
Each one by design
Kaleidoscopic shadow and light
The inner shibori of time
Searched my life for the artisan
The one with blue-stained hands
The one to blame for my dark design
I'm starting to understand
All these blue and white lines of mine
Each one by design
Kaleidoscopic shadow and light
The inner shibori of time
Ink pours out, one generation to the next
Each one trying to outrun it
We all end up soaking wet
All these blue and white lines of mine
Perfect by design
Kaleidoscopic shadow and light
The inner shibori of time
