Safe Space

Can we catch the fly in the ointment?
Can we catch the fly in the ointment?
Can we squeal like pigs with excitement?
Can we catch the fly in the ointment?

Will you die tonight? I hope not
Will you fly? Well, that's happening right now
Will you soar? That remains to be seen
But I feel
Clean

And I'm loving this dynamic
This push and pull
I'm loving this growth I feel
I feel full
I feel open and ready
To face what will come
And I will not come undone

I'll stay true to myself and my center
And I'll invite all those creatures
I deem to be clever
To come breathe thru me
To live and be
O, you bright creatures!

Come inhabit me
Come play with me
Come play with me
I want to say and be
And play and say
Come play with me
Come play with me

All you bright creatures
All you night crawlers
All you feathered, and furred, and smooth of skin
Come play with me
Come play with me
Come be a part of my impossible dream

And dream a little dream a little dream for me
And dream a little dream a little dream for me
It's possible
It's possible
Dream a little dream a little dream for me
Dream a little dream a little dream for me
Of what's possible

I feel it's possible to envision and imagine a world
Like that fellow from The Beatles once unfurled

But there are truer truths than this
There are higher teachers
And I'm reaching out and calling for that special double feature
Where Frank-N-Furter sits on his throne
He's not been banished

And the smear of his tears ruing his lipstick runs in reverse
And he's whole again and healthy and happy
He never died of aids
He never ran away
Never to return
Leaving me to face the burn
Indifferent to my fire

Well, that was years ago
And now
I'm here
Right now
And it's very nearly my birthday
And the kitchen has been torn apart
And ripped down to the timbers
And very little remains of what it once was
But will become
Just as I
Will bloom again
Just as I
Just as I
Will bloom again

Yeah, I'm finding my way into these sweet spaces
I'm going to stay and play in these sweet spaces
Come visit me here
And have no fear
For this is a safe space
