Hey :)
In the second stanza there's a line which says "...The fallen instruments/of its passion lie in the relic/-new stanza-darknessof sleep and love."
Okay so I get that she';s been going on about spirituality and sex, etc.
Just having trouble interpreting that one line :|
Is it like this?:
"Instruments of its passion" - the body
"Relic darkness" ie a rare and precious time where the spirit may roam free
