Worldsong
From the stars, I rise
stumbling through the sunlight
Borne from Diyu's haze
Summoning cherubs
winking at simplicities
Consequence, she waits
Roots seek quiet earth,
sacred bonds of creation
Like the bud, I bloom
As dust seeks trinkets
I convene with time's good grace--
The pale horse beckons
I sift through the ash
dancing into stretched shadows
With the stars, I meld
