lyrics

EVOCATION (THE TEMPLE)
"It's always our self we find in the sea.." — e.e. cummings

She said, "Here is the temple"
She said, "This is the temple"
She said, "Here is the temple"
She said, "Enter the temple"

"The Holder of Life
Will cleanse you of sorrow
Cast a net in the ocean
Be cleansed of your sorrow

The fixer of broken parts
Has love for your broken heart"

Then we dropped to our knees
And she sang in my mouth
We dropped to our knees
And she sang

She said, "Here is the temple"
She said, "You are the temple"
She said, "I AM the temple"
She said, "We are the temple"

"Mami Wata
Will cleanse you of sorrow
Cast flowers on the waves
Be cleansed of your sorrow

The fixer of broken parts
Is fixing your broken heart"

Then we dropped to our knees
And she sang in my mouth
We dropped to our knees
And she sang
