AIR: EPILOGUE


HAIL SKY GODDESS!

They kept telling you
Surrender

1,2,3,4,5,
Sex
Here are the seeds
Now swallow them
And become hole

Swallow
And Submerge

SUR – REN – DER!

How is Woman
Unique in the history of women
Taken up the sword
In the name of
Balance


The Rubedo

The Liberty queen
Crafted in her own
Cosmic vision
Icon of
As above, so below

How is she to settle for half
A donut
Glazed with the white poison
Hyperglycemic fantasy

SUR-REN-DER!
1,2,3,4,5,
Six seeds

The days grow darker
East Village beckons
The snake door
Opens

Let me in!
She cries at the gate
Revolving to confront
The illusion
Of the past

A full circle achieved
The alchemy of love
Brings you back
To the beginning



Prologue
At Bar on A
Many celebrities here!
Declared the party thrower
Looking straight at you
The gatecrasher

Pen poised to rewrite this
Epilogue
As you live it

And here we are again
Sparks
Igniting
Your kundalini fire
Plunged underground

Dream pronouncement
Flight to Spain awaiting
The fifth hour
Mirrored pentacle
Reflecting
Generic label
Astaraisborn



You left her in the gallery
Venus pregnant
With her spirit children
Brandishing her rod
Alight with feathers

Persephone
Seeking her underworld partner
Here we arrive back
At the beginning

Sparks fly
Sparks burst into flames
The East Village is on fire
With desire

The mouth of the serpent
Is open

And so it goes
The flame of love
Burning the edge of
Manhattan
Flame shooting
To the glittering lights
Guiding

To what?
Freedom?
The ultimate surrender?
To the Mylar mirror kiss
Now on Screensaver



Fame & flame
So alike
Except for one letter
L for love
L for Lisa

Commotion
Dishes crashing
As you enter a restaurant
In your dream
Excitement
Your trademark

Flight
An image of departure
The search for a matching sock
Your Pisces Mate

A lover is like a sock
The right match
Makes a pair

Master of the Universe driving you
But you mustn’t enter together
The lone reporter
On this dream voyage

Your role
To observe
Star alignments
As they appear

Your Mercurial flashlight
Above on Olympus
and below in Hades
Into how stars are made

Which brings us back to
Surrender
1,2,3,4,5,
Six

Seeds of the pomegranate
Juicy & whole
You are!

SUR-REN-DER!
All your life
Men telling you to surrender

What does it mean?
You understand now

The white flag
Raised and lowered
Just as you uttered the words
White flag
On New Year’s Day
At the Poetry Club

White, like salt
Preparation
Purity
Chastity

You have gone somewhere
That no reporter has gone
Before
You have reported a life
As it is lived
The consciousness
Of your actions
Evolving your next step
In an upward spiral

And so now
You understand
You have surrendered
All along
To your fate
Of not surrendering to a man

One breakthrough
After another
Until the structure is completed
Under the bridge of freedom

Tim Fey taking a bow
Yes!
You have crossed the threshold!
One seed
At a time

1,2,3,4,5
Sex!

Yes,
Five + One equals sex
The Mystery Man
A lover who never abandons

You have taken him out of the closet
Where you found him
On Spring Street
And made him
A public figure
Who lives, breathes, creates
In your pentacle reflection

And yes,
He surrenders!

AIR: FLIGHT



Mystery Man arrived
Just in time
For the dance
Of Sublimatio

Winged Being
Carries me
To the clouds
And Beyond



Star of Tomorrow
Embracing the One
Cosmic abstraction
And flesh
Together at last
Conjunctio complete

BOLD FACED Lover
Extending wedding band
Diamond studded
Golden Chalice
Pouring forth
For thirsty men

Silver Moon glow
Copper Venus
Blue breath
Liberating Earth



Finger of God
Adorned
With three metals
Marking the Journey

Bejeweled
Body Marked
For Success

Icon & human
Heaven & earth
Past & future
Converging with present
Opposites in balance

Aquarian Goddess
Armored by personal projection
Pentagram over the throat
Reflecting the five points

Saturn & Pluto
Force & Evolution
Blasting
Star into orbit

Winged Venus
Molding personal signature
Into cosmic being
Neptune and Venus wed
Into Universal Love

Circle opens
Venus Emerges
Golden Rod & Feathered Crown
Morning Star ascends
The reign of Leo
Amazon Warrior

Arrives at the Doorway
With blue snake pumps
Marking the Door
Opening



The ever present origin
In the Golden Chalice
Finger of God
Past (Luna) & Future (Venus)
Converge at the Apex
Path Unknown



The Great Watcher
The Leopard
Guarding the passage
Bravery, swiftness, ferocity
Beckoning Dionysos
Creator & Destroyer



We embrace
Winged Venus in earthly form
And myself
Love shining in her mirror
Poised for flight



The five-fold passage
To Aquarian Age Icon
Formed by the manuscripts
Organizing her synodic cycle
Into five archetypes
Aries, Scorpio, Gemini, Capricon
& Leo, the Star
Liberated by flight



The Great Work is done
Alchemy of Love
Has just Begun!
