The All of THE ALL


These bones are runes -
Inscribed with eternal demands:
 
Circumscribing the heart
 
Which pumps blood
Enlivened with death,
 
Released  
In
Ringlets of thought.
 
What was Edenic
Becomes Odinic
 
As we hang from trees
To see – To see…
 
Life is a will to vision,
Through mazes
 
Of
 
Darkness – Amassed
In Amaze
 
&
 
Awe,
 
Written on the soul -
Like calligraphy
 
Upon
 
Iconography
 
In
 
The All
 
Of
 
THE ALL.

Author's Note
There is a painting on my wall of a dragon, painted by a dear friend of mine.

I was looking at it...

And thought to write something about it, or prompted by it.

I had no idea where to go with it.

I went to the porch and paced like a madman
for a brief moment...

And then I saw it...

Only...

As I wrote, the piece swerved.

But I always do what feels right.
