Set that heart straight
So all else aligns,
Stars line up,
Cloud breaks down,
Desert gives up,
welcoming carnation under its sky.
Set that heart straight,
So reckless child calms down,
The beast from inside shuts up,
Haunting ghosts dissolve in paradise-of-heart.
Set that heart straight
So you tame outside
From inside; don’t be surprised,
No magician in this house.
Set that heart straight,
Even that wandering
Dog, your mind, stops,
No longer slave at the outside.
Set that heart straight,
So night becomes nicer
With its mysteries, unbuttoning
Its robe, one star light at a time.
Set that heart straight,
So when angels see
A brook in your soul,
Can descend, glorifying the spot.
