God picks up the reed-fluteworld and blows.
Each note is a need coming
through one of us,
a passion,
a longing pain.
Remember the lips
where the wind-breath
originated,
and let your note be clear.
Don't try to end it.
Be your note.
I'll show you how it's enough.
Go up on the roof at night,
in this city of the soul.
Let everyone climb on their roofs
and sing their notes!
Sing loud!

That's lovely, I may have to check out the book, it sounds interesting. I am not sure my soul is advanced but it wants to be!
Happy weekend bud xxx
Let the soul be free through pain and passion, let our souls be free.
I love this. I want to be this. Thank you for sharing.
