Darkness opened before her A doorway to the abyss The cool silk of the blackness Encompassed her mind Reaching inward to grip Her very soul It took a moment for her to realize She wasn’t alone. . She could feel a presence There in the chasm Immense, powerful, ancient Almost overwhelming She caught her breath As a consciousness probed Her thoughts, fears, desires And her body trembled. . A question formed in her mind “Do you know what I am?” . “I believe I do, yes!” She answered. “But why am I here? What do you want of me?” . Incomprehension flooded her mind Followed by a rush of emotions That she knew to be her own. The onslaught staggered her And she stumbled. Something caught her Gently, firmly and set her aright. It felt smooth, warm, rigid. . “Are you able to stand?” The question entered her mind. . “Yes! Emotions, you don’t know!” . In her mind an image took shape. “You have a thing within your kind It is not a thing of my kind I do not require it to survive, But I covet it! And this is my puzzlement. I do not understand this desire For this thing within your kind. Teach me?” “In the teaching of this There will be a transformation In YOU! “You have looked into my mind. The answers you seek are there.” “Yes, I have looked within you. For a short time. But in the merging of our minds There will be a transformation in YOU!” "I am ready.” She answered. “Then let our minds mingle, And the transformations begin.” She felt herself being cradled In a large hand As a mother would cradle a child She leaned back relaxed and waited. .............. .............. unfinished Enotneicna SLR 8-02 I know where this is going and it could turn out to be a very long piece. Words are my medicine. |
