One night I saw the Whole:
It fixed me with a terrible gaze
Then left me
Hanging,
All around Its Voice mocked:
See See See See
I hung there above bleeding hearts,
Peach twigs fallen, snapped in parts,
“How can I see? I who am blind,
You who have blinded me,
Tell me how can I see?” I called until
My voice too was gone yet still
I croaked my “I’m blind” song;
The frogs they chorused along
“She’s blind, she’s in a bind”
Turtle farunkked and hurrumphed,
“Open open open inside
Then just see what you will find!”
Snake coiled herself tight and hissed all around me,
“Medusa was loved by the God of the Sea
Lady Love is Mother who Lights up All:
The butcher the baker the candlestick maker
The ant, the fly, the crow in the sky
The men marching up and down the hall.
Why do you struggle so?
There are no strings you know,
Save the one’s you’ve made in your mind,
Those are what keep you mute and blind,
Keep you hung up and here in a bind.”
Suddenly I fell to the ground
The coils in my hair untangled, unbound,
Unfettered and free
I took a good slow look at Me
And I saw Unity.
Queen of Cosmos
Queen of Night
Queen of Darkness
Queen of Bright
Queen of Fire
Queen of Ice
Queen of Naughty
Queen of Nice
I am your devotee today
With Lady Moon we’ll play.
I wish I could give you more stars than available here. This is beautiful, from beginning to end the journey of self discovery, acceptance and enlightenment
