7 Akbal
Blue Resonant Night
Into my Dream
Flew a yellow Bird---
A Rose upon each Wing
The Rose was pink
And I did think it odd
This Coloring---
The Bird came close
As if to speak
In Awe I shut my Eyes---
Then I did feel
Upon my cheek
A tiny Kiss---
A precious Prize.

6 Cimi
White Rhythmic World-Bridger
On the Loom Mayá*
Grandmother Spider weaves –
Replicating Tessellations of
Birth – Death – Rebirth
Hallowed Patterns intricate
Holding Codes of Origin
Holding Codes of Destiny
Descending all to Earth
Soul spins a Body visible
Held by Threads invisible
By Gravitation bound
To Life’s sacred Ground.

5 Chicchan
Red Overtone Serpent
Once accomplished
Above All---
The Life Force
Seeks Survival
Once empowered,
Instinct
Transforms Form
Into Radiance
Overtones echo in
Primal Night---
Building a Cosmos of
Sound and Light.

4 Kan
Yellow Self-Existing Seed
The possible Poetry
Of a Life
Often takes the Breath away---
The wounded Psyche
Organizes around Defense---
A Fortress medieval
Or Forest primeval
The Princess within
The Prince without
Aim Arrows of Projection
Blindly over Walls
Finally a benevolent
Force arises---
A Bid for Consciousness---
A crucial Cry for Love and Myth
If ever Sleep seduces you
Refuse with Power doubled---
Overcome the Tragedy
Of Life without its Poetry.

3 Akbal
Blue Electric Night
Abundant Dreaming
Through Electric Nights
Metaphysical Visions---
Sight without Light
Thrust into Being---
Two becomes Three
It is accomplished
Aum---Awomyn
Unto Thee.

2 Ik
White Lunar Wind
From Mansions
On the Moon
A second Impulse rises---
Emerging Grace
Holds Spirit’s Breath
Duality cloaks Reality
Solid seeming – mostly Space
Where there was One
Now Two appear
Time from Timelessness begins
Fractals split Infinity
Informing Form---
Inhale---Exhale
Male---Female
One from Two is born.
