Spirit Wins

Lies laid bare
the spell was broken.
wounded and Liberated
Incongruent.

Ego, a rabid dog
scampers and digs
for reasons to flagellate
and fester in sticky resentment;
the script, familiar 
and falsely empowering;
Ever anxious for its emotional support bone.

Spirit,
knows liberation and peace
Freedom from polluting pheromones
and bestial desires
bent in award repose
across Fantasy’s dais;
pauses, breaths
then
Soars.

Asherah Reborn

You didn't spring from his loins
you sprang on them
seeking the other half
of the source
of divinity
with the enthusiasm of a bacchanalian novice
a pagan priestess
met with iron and wood
honeysuckle in the moonlight
till the sun rose
on the long night
and covenants like stars
fell far and brightly
