We Moon: Magic ’01

 Magic smells of ancient wisdom

Like my dead bug collection  (oh wondrous green cicada, iridescent beetles,

dragonflies, bees—you are proof of Natural Magic)

 

Exoskeletal creatures leaving shells of beauty behind:

Magical encasements of energy—soul.

Magic smells like my oils—olfactory bliss of

            Jasmine: to attract good spirits

            Lavender: to sleep peacefully

            Mimosa: to dream the answer…to a burning question

Write down your dreams upon waking.

 

Candle Magic illuminates our darkest hours

Only superceded by Moon Magic:  Insight, Intuition                      right-brained, extra-sensory

—all that is feminine.  All that they’ve

 

tried to snuff out

                                    But magic never goes away

                                    Nor do the womben.

 

Magic roles off the tongue

especially in the vowels   ooo  iii

All 0’s and 1’s: the Other, the Individual

We connect through and through like circuitry

weaving a web that communicates…

Something bigger than the word, bigger than us: MAGIK.

 

Never cast a love spell—

Never try to control another

so that they’ll do your will.

 

Some spell magic with a K

Which makes mytho-logical sense;

After all, it all begins at the omphalos,

the navel, the Kore: start at the bottom and work your way up

Calling up and drawing down the Knowledge that Is Power that Is…ISIS.

 

Magic Is the perfect understanding

of the essence of freedom;

Work together to cast change.
