From The Womb Of Fire, Charmed By The Beauty Of A Vengeful Sky (22)

Rating: 5.0


What surmounts and defeats a dragon's rage
When earthen laws are disaffected and pushed aside;
Released from the bondage of nature's cage
Charmed by the beauty of a vengeful sky
With might emanating from each flickering eye.
Powerful jaws bestow a quick pointed thrust
Reminding man their mutual fates are tied,
Mingling their blood entangled in the dust
Victims of a strange fellowship epitomized by mistrust.

Inflaming vitality, dragon spirits
Ignited by the spark of a godlike mind
Dressed the world in passionate expectation;
Cloaked with the malevolence of their kind
Pulled out of the savage darkness, devoid and blind,
Screeching, clawing from the abysmal floor
With the mammoth oceans roaring behind
Riled by the impatience creation bore
Plunged through the opening of earth's sensual door.

Expansive earth, purified by its waters,
In never ending glory hangs suspended
Within reach of a parental universe;
Heralding Gaia, its most radiant daughter,
Her visual charms virginally blessed,
Promoting life, her blue green eyes extending
From a cradled world lovingly pouring forth
In timeless flight. Those eyes ascending
Driven by evolutionary worth
Exposing features of her proud and privileged birth.

Teeming sexuality, pristine and warm,
Earth no longer framed by barren thought;
Creatures breeding, ocean's pattering flow,
Wanderlust's of green imaginings caught
Propagating desire all across beaming earth.
Those lovely sounds heathen winds have learned
Echoed by the mountains and the streaming brooks
With soft whispered breath, lovers gently turn,
In carnal anticipation as the cosmic fires burn.
