Protectress
Out on a silent field
she danced in the evening wind
when with a blade of bronze
she was brought low
Beneath the bluest sky
on a deathbed she slept
with golden fangs in her flesh
drinking her dry
Under the millstone of eternity
was her corpse then ground to dust
into finest powder she was reduced
Upon the hallowed earth
she was cast as a circle
as an ashen serpent
that chases its tail
And the rain of tears and sweat
did pour down on her
like a sacred potion
born from a toilsome quest
When by that water’s virtue
she became mud
I took her in my hands
and breathed new life into her

Pilgrimage
Two roads lead
to the well of death
one is narrow
the other winding
both walked with resolve
There two saplings rise
against a canvas of mist
one is barren
the other yet to bloom
their roots entwined
in the womb below
And on the shadowed earth
two lanterns rest
one extinguished
the other still unlit
both fed with the oils of flesh
By the black water
two silent shapes abide
one is dead
the other arisen
joined in eternal rivalry
Blood star, rise
blood star, shine
the steps ahead
illuminate
In your light
reborn am I
with hands twain
to hurt, heal and bless
