My Khamsa Poem


Searing clouds of cleansing fire

Drift swiftly forth as a storm,

A golden heart doth lay within,

Driving the darkness astern.

A tear of anger

A tear of woe

Strength reigns down from the sky,

They feed the churning burning mass

Keeping the fires alive.

Three golden rays spring lightly forth,

Flying as swift as a dove.

The products of this maelstrom,

Inspiration, hope, and love.

Ponderance of the Fall

Golden gate on violet wall,

What will happen if you fall?

Why do I want to find out?

Am I just a selfish lout?


Is it curiosity

Or does a deeper meaning seethe?

What would I be setting free?

Some thing from which we all would flee?


Behind the bricks of glowing black,

Something strange is held far back,

Knowledge of it's nature slack,

But the wall it wants to crack.


I could open wide the door,

Just to find out what its for,

Violate my only chore,

Just because I'm wanting more.


But deep down I know I can't,

Even though I hear the chant,

Of a loud gibbering rant,

Breathing with a heavy pant.


I may wonder, its my right.

I am an eternal might,

Gate and wall and wolf and light,

With an equal does of night.


I will go on wondering,

About all and everything,

that's just what I do you see,

Just be glad you are not me.


What a cup that I must bear,

Always at my mind they tear,

Always trying hard to scare,

I will just no longer care.
