4 Lamat
Yellow Self-Existing Star
Rising Moon---
You dazzle like
Another Sun
Silently lifting
Your silver
Gown
Into a velvet
black Sky
Stars hang
Faint and
obscure
Before your
Majesty---
Time and Tide
Are Moon’s domain---
Her Beauty
absolute
Lady of the Evening
Light---
Sovereign
Queen of Night.

3 Manik
As I looked down the Corridors of
Time
Those Halls were empty, desolate, and
still
I’ve lived in every Century and Clime
Becoming what I wish and what I will
I traveled fast in search of
something lost---
Forgotten since the Dawn of Time’s
Rebirth
I could not name it nor of Knowledge
boast --
Though I Redemption sensed, and with
it Mirth.
I saw then your Figure solitary
Beckoning me from Futures not yet
lived---
Your strong Embrace gave Sanctuary
From Fear and Death as soon as I
believed.
I chose Faith and a Share in what is
True
Love rescued me from Time when I found You.

2 Cimi
White Lunar
World-Bridger
Moonbeams fall
On all alike---
Drifting down
A silver Path
In quiet Night
Upon a
World
Polarized
Hypnotized
Mechanized---
Radiant Dreams
Rise and fly
To Galaxies above
Visions of a World restored
From Chaos to Cosmos.

Red Magnetic Serpent
Blue Castle of Burning
Turns on a transform Star---
Life Force doubles
In the Court of Magic---
Our Purpose---
Remembrance and
Elegance of Structure
Red
Serpent Magnetic
Weaves Moons thirteen
Into Space/Time’s
Galactic Fabric.

13 Kan
Yellow
Cosmic Seed
Awash in a Sea of Mystery
I wait for Thee
Thou art with me always –
Yet I yearn for Thee unceasingly
Aflame in a Sea of Fire
My Soul knows the underground Gold
Stripped naked each Night
I swim and burn in a Sea of Light
I am visited by a god –
I ache with Infusions of the Vine
How will I endure until
The Water turns to Wine?

12 Akbal
Blue Crystal Night
Ask me to stem the
great Ocean’s Tide
Ask me to halt the
Moon’s silver Ride
Ask me to bless the Blind
with clear Sight
Ask me to banish all
Darkness from Night
Ask me to heal the
Wounds of the World
Ask me to find the
Oyster’s sweet Pearl
Ask me to live
without Water or Air
Ask me to cut off my
Breath or my Hair
But ask me not ever
to cease loving you
For that is the one Thing
I never could do.

11 Ik
White Spectral Wind
When all Excess
dissolves from frantic Day
And Minutes
disappear in Metaphor
Then alabaster Bones
alone do stay
Supporting one Activity---no
more
Necessities
expendable become---
I meditate entirely
on Thee
No other Function
takes me out of Home
Not Hunger, Commerce,
nor Philosophy
Contemplation truly
undertaken
Sustains the Mind,
the Body and the Soul
Bliss pervades and Ecstasies
awaken
All else is rendered
Dross when Thou art Goal
If Naught but Thought
of Thee is my Desire
Then neither Death
nor Life can quench the Fire.
