ribbons woven intricate ties of silk-- a worm's parade I bind my hand upon the left lest he point to mine own grave... I bind my foot upon the right to keep her step in intimace oil stains the colors deep-- I light the flames-- I breathe incense. I play the flickers with my hand-- I touch the stones of altar spread. I circle salt widdershins I tuck my intellect in bed. There can be no "me" in me-- a chalice, full, can not be filled. My voice is silence singing still... I feel pulse in wrist of dead. Tandem dance of universe keeping rhythm of the drum. I am cyclone-- tunnel wind-- I become myself, undone. Born within the particles of dust kicked by my feet-- ribbons loosed across the sky as I labor--birthing me... [This message has been edited by serenity blaze (07-29-2002 03:14 PM).] |

let the fires burn. . . you know that I loved this one. . . for way too many reasons. . . just hope that my own dance is as creative. . . --------------------------------------------------------- To the world, you may only be one person. But to one person, you may be the world. |

Terrific again, Karenity. Best wishes and Congratulations. I have a good feelin' about you. Don't know the mister, but figger he must be quite the Saintly Daemon. Something for you and "others" in Open (a gift, sorta). Save me a dance (with the Bridesmaids, too) ~wranx The shortest distance between two points... |

heh heh heh-- wranx? no bridesmaids...my maid of honor? is our daughter, and the best man? our son. And I still have not agreed to wear shoes. But I wanted to pop in and thank you all for the generosity--you all amaze me, time after time--I am running out of ways to thank you. (serenity exits, saving herself for marriage...) - - - |
