She strides across the blacktop
low-sun lit, golden
radiance is a woman
all women
all life
She turns her gaze to the window
daylight on her eyes
radiance is a woman
all women
all life
She laughs into her headset
like silver bells moonslashed
radiance is a woman
all women
all life

From the Small Source of Comfort liner notes:
Radiance (Camden East 12/07/09) - "I read an interview with Jungian
psychologist Marion Woodman in which she made a reference to the Divine
Feminine representing the radiance which pervades the cosmos. I liked
the image. Then, driving down the road at sunset, I saw the first verse
unfold."
