In the room at the back of the house

The walls are soft and pulsing wet and cool

Magick wells up inside of me

Until it overflows, cascading down my cheeks

Pale brown boards stretch down the corridor

A shimmering haze settles over the maze

Smoothing over the valleys of past dreams and reality

Starry-eyed I'm spinning

Slowly

A spiral dance

In a black hole of blue the earth spins her dance too

A hybrid of humanity stretched over infinity

Sensing the garden, soft wisps of willow

Lisp and caress the beaded air of the mist

And the wise witch wove her dreams creating coiled ropes of silver that wound 'round the trees

Starry-eyed I'm spinning

Slowly

A spiral dance

There's textured bark that moulds itself to my shape

It's dark green and wet and there's sounds of water dripping

Disintegrating shapes and flickering shadows

Trickle into my brain

It's all nothing around, no going back

Nothing else to do when bubbles turn black

Immerse yourself in a pleasure dome

Love potion says you just can't stop

Must be the time to spiral in, swim, swim

All goes limp straight after the buzz

Least I know know I'm spiral dancing

And I dream of crystals glowing to the rhythm of my breathing

Starry-eyed I'm spinning

Slowly

A spiral dance
