David John Morris - Inner Smile

When my heart opens
With energy it flows
To those I love
And like a wave coming
Up on the shore
A smile rises up from my shoulders
Gathers my lips and cheeks and chin
Unlocks
The casket in my jaw
And breaks from my eyes!
As this wave washes
Back into me
It takes with it
My sandcastles of aggression
And all of
The names
Of enemy and friend
That I had written there
It also gathers up
Stranded jellyfish
And returns them to drift
To who knows where
Feeling lord knows what
It also receives baby turtles
Fresh from the shell
Who'll go on to discover
Their turtleness
In empty black depths
And in sun dappled shallows
And everywhere in between
And it also tickles the paws of the jackals…
It also tickles the paws of the jackals…
It also tickles the paws of the jackals…
It also tickles the paws of the jackals who hunt them!
Inner Smile, Inner Smile
Thank you Hollis!
Inner Smile, Inner Smile, Inna Smile
Thank you Hollis!
