A Call to Shiva

Feet will dance,
eyes will see,
tongue will sing,
and not find content.
What else, what else
shall I do?

I worship with my hands,
the heart is not content.
What else shall I do?

   Listen, my lord,
   It isn’t enough.
   I have it in me
   to cleave thy belly
   and enter thee

O lord of the meeting rivers!
