Sorcerer’s Apprentice

Sorcerer’s Apprentice

Ouija board night séance
His fingers touch heart shaped wood
As words unveiled in darkness
Ragnon Satan’s right arm
Says justice is reason for evil

In silent prayer I invoke Jesus’ name
Wooden piece flies off board
My friend reveals Demon’s intention
To destroy my astral and physical body
Angels will watch on but not interfere
As to avoid Armageddon too soon

For six months my grades dip to Ds
Teachers say I’m at that girl crazy age
I sit at dining room table eating alone
Grandpa asks what’s worrying me
My answer nothing

Dungeons and Dragons with friend
Occupies my nocturnal hours
We watch the clock turn midnight
Till daybreak when I return home
He channels Zarkon ancient Druid
A fatherly spirit whose warmth and wisdom
Comforts me in my impending doom
My former life revealed
As Elkron a Druid turned to evil
His head a burning skull
Brother Kel from ancient times
Professes he would die a thousand deaths for me

Astral projection lesson
Told to imagine myself floating
In sea of blue
My body feels heavy like lead
I sink into azure ocean
My spirit flies free
Ephemeral liberation from body

I ask my friend why no archaeological evidence
To support his mythical world
My first step in deprogramming
Reading Carl Sagan on Maine beach
I discard fantasy for science

Twenty years later my friend is diagnosed
With multiple personality disorder
Transgendered into female
We part in French Quarter alley
She feels abandoned by me
As with anguish I leave her
Scintillated by her exotica
Like a rare Amazonian butterfly
Whose androgyne beauty
Haunts my heart
