On This Threshold

Now I hold a key to Solomon's Seal It fits the Star of David too Rock climbed the Walls of Wisdom Cornerstones well placed towards a Throne of Love, bloody thorns my rope Courage dissolved into pebbles of joy As loneliness became Aloneness On this threshold my nails oxidised Into water atoms, fire ashed my carbon Womb aglow with vacancy, heart an Open page of becoming you will not Know unless you are ready for Grace Beckoning from fields of dandelions as Soccer fields shatter into pastures On this threshold you are observed by Luminous eyes which dissolve pigment Hair, feet, bones, marrow, brain cells Pleasure and pain like autumn leaves Make compost before pearls and rubies Body becomes only heart splintering Into the spacelessness before the hole Fingerless I stroke the burnished key Know how to insert it into my given space I see skylarks in a shimmering silence Silver serpents twirl around golden orbits The threshold disappear as I slide Into a nothingness of Light at Peace GhairoDanielsPoetry2014
