I CREATED MY EYE IN FLAME
























REGARDING FIERY CAPACITIES
 
"The more you are motivated by love, the more fearless and free your actions will be." ~ Dalai Lama



the long & short of it
a short life in a long body
how to embody that heart
in that light
wanting, out

as it exits to rejoin the whole
many year old self, line the heart

line by line with intellect
wanting, out, extinguished
love rightly moving the terrain here
embraced by an eternal, imperishable

nature, the one
that wants y-o-u
"out"
your imagination
fired up


say thank you & go
don't forget your hat

A WOMAN WITH AN UNUSUAL PET























BRITOMARTIS



blessed she fled
foul to fish


©2015 Soft Terror In Six Words stephaniepope mythopoetry.com

In SIX WORDS or fewer, write a story about a woman with an unusual pet. #6words  @Kelsye 

notes
The poem is titled “soft terror” to accent the early origin of this goddess in the mythologem of the mountain mother, Artemis. The Mother of Mountains is perhaps the earliest aspect of the Cretan goddess.  Given this context makes her “unusual” pet one that possesses the demon-like features of the gorgon.

TO THE GODDESS IN MY MUSING LIFE: The Uncut Stone























ONCE UPON A BLUE NIGHT



Slung over one shoulder, a moon
jumpin over the edge of June
right into July, august in the sky
Lived under moon thunderer’s boon

You see…

Born in a month of fish
worlds rejoiced as it cried
and in a month of fish how worlds abide
happily fed and happily t(r)ied
and more than happily fished

You see…

Livin’ this life where it died
worlds will also have cried
to the edge of its June & its watering moon
full-filling our great earth dish

 -THE FULL MOON IN CAPRICORN

[quote]

"In astrology, the Moon represents our emotions, what we treasure in our hearts, intuition, instinctive knowing and behavior, the unconscious, our depths, our animalistic side, our innermost selves.


The Sun in Cancer opposes this Full Moon in Capricorn. These two signs are polar opposites; typically Cancer represents the archetype of the Mother in astrology and Capricorn, the archetype of the Father....
We can explore this polarity and find a balance between...."
