Great Rite

Yin and Yang
cherries in the center of day 
torches lit for the primal gods 
semen invoked in emerald realms 

dewy goddess 
thousands of me unfold 
with my contemplation 
goblet rich with fire 

she is not under control 
sacred scroll masked in feathers 
the eldest daughter,
a burnished priestess 

ghostly draperies traverse us,
peaceful and promising 
birth and death the same 
by ardor and reason 

entire wonders grow from our veins 
a tree, the forests candelabra 
among the most holy 
graceful oaks, temples

--Zaratyst, 10-20-89
