DREAMING OF. . .
DREAMING OF. . .

I. DREAMING OF ANCIENTS

a chunk of land floating in space, in time
a checkerboard of marble upon the ground
a center courtyard with paths in four directions
jasmine and lavender lightly scent the air
i sit upon a stone bench in the center of the courtyard
i read the BOOK OF ANCIENT ONES
faintly echoing, your voice draws my attention

  'do not fear, precious, i am waiting for you'

i place the book on the bench and look for you

  'come to me my brother, my love'

i hesitate, then take the northern path
i find my way to a fountain of fire

  'burn away your fears, your sins'

i place my hands into the flames but a
LITANY OF ESCAPE
LITANY OF ESCAPE

Sleeping, I wake from lizard trance,
stepping to the tune of ancestral dance.
I pick up my feet and put them down in a pattern unknown,
but witnessed well in the murky bubble of my private hell.
Filial music of created sound, spins me, turns me, whirls me round.
Lost in smoke, all light obscured, internal listening strains
toward a silent word.
Frantically struggling to hear, I clutch at endless veils blocking
my inner ear.
Finally surrendering to my plight, a world is illuminated by yielding
to the light.
A single decree is written there, simple and strong,
I hear it now, prayer.
Planets wheel and suns revolve.
