Sybyl veiled in vapors
shimmies in her cave
distant as Elysium
or the whispers in our dreams
Vivian vaulting on her island
the misty-quiet of Avalon
Hy-Brasil
beyond the western sea
Enkidu was Neanderthal
Gilgamesh, a Nephilim
they striped Kubaba of her terrors
the goddess of Kish
queen of the cedar forest
Selene, coursing through her orbit
brighter than Aurora
the light of poets
she is sister to the sun
each thing is a concrescent being
a society of mutuals
process and Perpetua
impermanence and flux
lightning, thunder, wind and rain, the
dust of our bodies on the burning-plane
Maya…Gaia…mother—earth
blue-green Midgard,
which gave me birth
spinning in the ether
to the music of the spheres
dancing with the titans, while
the rainbow-serpent
eats its tail
Livre des Maudite
The Book of the Damned
