Blue Crystal Eagle/ Lunar Scorpion Moon of Challenge, Day 9






12 Men

Blue Crystal Eagle

My Heart is fragile
Agile in her Musing –
Full of Adhesions
Doubt, Fears and Reasons
To withdraw

I learned to love on a Battleground
Where volatile Mines
Were set down to trip
And whip me into Conformity

I lost small Pieces of my Mind
In hell-bent Skirmishes out of the Blue
Always poised to defend myself –
I danced with the Devil on the front Lines

Resistance sent me Underground
But the Devil claimed his Due –
I laid down my Soul in Surrender
To a Power I hardly knew

I lost that Battle but won the War
Therein lay my Victory –
When I died to Death my Life was born
My Story began telling me.
