Press play and let the music wash over you as you read.
Salute.
The Seeker's Pledge written
In Tribunals of Universal Seductions'
Ancient Bibles
Ejon’s Tale
1129AD
6 am
In the midnight garden
Where all the dwellers of the in-between parallel worlds
Hide
Just another brief mystery of time
Like written in the first book of Adam and Eve
Or even Lilith's
We ran wildly and carefree like Huckleberry Finn
Into that old world's beautiful Sin
Angels do not play Harps
Where I now lie
As I both laugh and cry
Like in the
APOCALYPSE OF MOSIS
I no longer breathe
For in the end
Everyone loses
Lost beyond the light barrier
Lost between two ages
I now stand now in front of the great
White Gates
Of the Master of All Hidden Places
I still whisper your secretive name
You know
Praying inwardly it carries
My silent words to you
Wherever you go
As I alone walk the lone trail
Of the Last Circle
Using my Lemegeton Clavicula Salomonis
As my guide
As my love still
Lives
Just looking for her to freely
And willingly give
There can be no magic without tears
Some say
No love without experiencing
Tragedy
For are we not
All but masquerading angels
For all to see
But in our deep inner core
Those who can see
Know the deepest of
Such truths
We sometimes
Whisper in our own
Dark wooden
Metaphorical
Confessional Booths
And it’s why I still search
These Great Lands
To find
Thee
It may be a new murder by
Rejection
As I now knock
The long deep knock
On these great gates
Singing a lullaby
As I burn away more hidden chords of time
Lost in heartbreak's delicious feast
Remembering
When You were just mine
But like all the dark mysteries
Connected with the Holy Grail
Maybe this time around
I won't fall on my knees
Buckle under and fail.
Because you've got power
Power over me.
