White Lunar Dog/ Solar Jaguar Moon of Intention, Day 23

2 Oc

White Lunar Dog

 

My Spirit falls – shattered by

 Barricades more solid than

Mortared Brick could fuse –

Unwittingly I descend

Into the seventh Hell

Of lusty Phrases worn with Use

 

Divorced and desperate I came here

 To seek my self – observe and grow

Beyond a vapid Realm of Mediocrity --

Cradled by sweet Reason my Soul

Reclaimed itself into a Structure girded

Well against satanic Mockery

 

You caressed my Body’s Curves and Spaces –

The trembling of my Womb

Held you closely dark and deep

In loving you my Spirit grew half-strong –

Giddy with Delight to reach

The Height of long-forgotten Dreams

 

But Night and you together

Blasphemed my sacred Peace –

The Wish to love became the Wish to please

Betrayed by shallow Light behind your Eyes

I lay shrouded in Deception

I stumbled then, but again will rise.
