New Earth Light

Violet Flame of Transmutation burn
             burnish sacral until Holy White
thaw caw-caw ______      S C R E A M 
                                  black crows at door
resist no more day, night ~ clear  S I G H T
                                       gawking, LAUGHING 

Asperges, Domine ! pyramids resound 
                  Asperges, Domine !  ~ drops 
                               s.p.r.i.n.k.l.e.  dangling, puddling _________calm pond resulting 
Melchedzedek hails grail no frailty rebounds 
purple priestesses hold light in sight no fear DARE daring challenging coming coming came

strike and dissolve FELT ETERNITY 
C.O.N.Q.U.E.R.E.D  no clinging 
                           chanting mantra with lanterns 
phœnix RISE
                      RISING
                                   R I S E N 
                           from grey ashes in tantrum
burning earning firing lightning LIGHT

dark serpents to NewEarth   f l a s h I NG
cry sobbing on hob hot tears so dear 
          brain raining a forest, a rainforest of rainbows reflecting, refracting  REMINDING
remembering  WHO I AM I AM YOU
sow luminal seeds, branding spring fling 
         felicitous fountains bringing singing 
                  SINGING 
sigh a high perting hurting destruction for
Recognition softly

dance spirit floor,  hugging Self’s delight ! 
FEEL   the       D*E*A*L*
                   a moist flowery deal to peal ___~~
