Children of the Week

Monday's child has a great big face
Tuesday trips and gets called "Grace"
Wednesday's child is a stupid hoe
Thursday's child is ready to go
Friday's child gets money by giving
Saturday's child stays hard for a living
But the child born on the Sabbath day
is flighty and lies and is super gay

I apologize for this one, I couldn't help it when it happened and I'm fairly embarrassed.

Pantotos: A Prophecy

Every seven generations,
a new youth arises and
changes the future of the
people.

Every seven years, your
body replaces itself.

We are all interconnected.
We are not one.
We are many.
And we are all cousins.

As above, so below.
The patterns repeat themselves
and all the cosmos is a fractal.

Every seven generations,
the first become last and
the last become first. Change
takes all time and no time.

The smallest cracks will destroy
the greatest mountains
given sufficient geological time.

Those in power always find
their end, and those without
will arise.

First do no harm, but no one
should be restrained from
acts that harm none.

Every seven generations the
unpredictable can be predicted.
Contradiction becomes necessary
and logic fails.

The invader parades as native
far from his homelands after
stripping the natives of theirs.

The oppressed are a sick family.
The ailing youth must unite
to create clean air and water
as the first medicines of a
new and healthier people.

No one should die, but many do.

Every seven generations the
cosmos refreshes itself, and seven
on seven is a true rebirth.

Math is the basis of all things,
from nature to invention.
But also in the measure
of consequence and intention.

Carelessness is a worse
vice than malice, and
ignorance worse than
wrong judgment.

Strive to increase social and
natural bounty - be fruitful and multiply.

Thou art God and I am God and the
smallest speck of dust is God and
you are all my relations.

We will learn all there is to know
about all that can ever become or be
from first to last, open to close,
beginning to end and again and again.

All things are fractals. All things
are God. All things are you. All things are me.

I am you. We are them. Thou art God.

Know thyself. Love thyself. Become thyself. 

The Present Absence of Other

Going home again
to aching loneliness:
solitary silent shame
No greeting at the door

A real questing for character
without external reinforcement
No approval but my own
No restrictions here alone

The question of self left
undefined by the future
unrefined in the present
undesigned from the past

Internally inflicted inquisition
leaving behind uncertainty
wobbling and lurching
dimly toward the unexpected
hopefully into some light
recursively beginning to end

Protection

Cthonic Mother
who art Hekate, Trivia, the Morrigan
Protect my mother G T J
Now named W, though she has been still this year
formerly H
and having unknown aliases and akas
Keep her far from the still
for alcohol is killing her
Protect her from the men who've loved her
for they have loved her wrongly
her father and her brothers
her husbands and her lovers
Save her from herself
and all the self-harm she wills
Never let her again serve sub
serviant - as operator, card-dealer, cashier
Let her again find her world
enjoyable
by the impertinent behavior of kittnes
named after 80s pop songs
May neither Gulf nor Atlantic hurricane
wash away her home
at the F W R facility
and may none of her pasts -
Louisiana, Nevada, or Florida again -
disturb her healthful recovery,
and turn her towards the light.
and let her daughters heal
from wounds she wrought
and let herself heal
from wounds her mother wrought
And may the curses on her line
be lifted
And may the tares from the grain
be sifted
And the tears between her family
no longer rifted
Cthonic mother seal the rifts
Earth Goddesses heal earthquakes
Dark ladies turn the fates
Let good intentions pave the way -
not to hell, but to grace.
