MAGDALA

Amazed, in a faded, ailing garden, I was blinded by a phantasm, awed by testaments of a history laden with sorrows. Here, in this crumbling paradise, I turned away. Such vigilance was vainglorious, until we met; sharing all the bones of our heart-sore hungers.

And you were fragrant, clear as honeyed myrrh, crying out for all lost rain, in solid tears, reaping the endless heat of all our black-rimmed eyes.

Sister, I heard their bid for your silence. I cowered in fear of desert winds across your face. And we were dusted, by disparate devices, in this, their ire. Are we not seers in each Sirocco, bent low beneath the bridal train?

We knew one mother’s sweat, and her blurred outline. We watched her roar; ever-present, alive within, and we were altered, made anew in the after-glow.

Roses on the path, we were shackled to the wall, dreaming of a new moon, staring deep into the well.

I touched your eyes, and they were mine. Daughter of time, I was afraid of your visage, terrified by your endless night sky. And when you bore that raven, your suffocation was a blight upon my joy. Only now, I fully see, we must embrace, to light the lamp. We’ll weave new ways forth for truth to shine, for radiant soul to rise.
