garlanded in mist and veil she rises from
indifferent sleep and flies into the chords
of night to find the place where she can
shed the mist and veil that cannot bear
to hold the heat inside her soul ...
her passion hears the whispers that are
far more precious than the dormant space
she leaves below, that even now sleeps on
alone and unaware that she has gone.

her nakedness is shocking, her oceanheart
is diamond-cut with stars splashed through
her blood and the whisper waves that carry
her may well explode the tender arch of breath.
the ache that fills her flight is love's heartbeat,
not a demon's missile to be disarmed or feared.
this is no weeping, wounded Chiron grieving
in a flood of failure and na�ve, misguided giving.
this is the shining pulse of soul, the place of her
Beloved, where she will be complete when all
the mist has melted to expose the magic truth
of what she knew to start with ...
