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
