Life Force Vision

We’re flying round back to back
shielding from the rain,
held quite out of control.
I’m blinded by my vision of a fairground,
the world is at its feet.
The great earthrock standing stones
worshipped from afar to now,
coming to life when we kiss
bringing us in an instant
black clouds from sunshine,
driving rain from stillness . . .

The life force that draws us,
We know not why.
