I am a part of the whole of Nature.
The rocks, the animals, the plants, the elements are my relatives.
Other humans are my sisters and brothers, whatever their races, colors, ages, nationalities, creeds, or sexual preferences.

Spirituality
"What is `spirituality'? Does it matter much today?
And what is something `sacred'? Is it black and white...or grey?"
These were the queries of a youngster, and gave me pause for thought;
And as I rummaged through my mind, I found...

A Rambling Meditation
This is a rambling meditation
an indoctrination of the inspiration
and the hurricane of thought
that storms through my brain.
This is a directionless path
through the snowbanks
and sand dunes of my mind,
the archipelago of my dreams
and...

Sleepy The Winter
By Ame Strix
Sleepy, the Winter
crawls out of his lair
Dead leaves and frost-bites
snared tight in his hair.
Yawning in gales
naked trees bow
Gray rain pelts down,
from light-hoarding clouds.
Sleepy, the Winter
surveys his domain
snapping...

Heaven Is A Resting Place
I reject the mortal fear
Which brings on doctrine-strife,
For I have seen with poet's eyes
The Door twixt Death and Life.

That time is yet to come.
Heaven is a resting-place,
A home to journey...

Another One For Jim Morrison
Where did he go, that vision-mad soul?
What did he see on his quest?
Who did he meet at the end of his night?
Why did he fail the test?
The shaman is old, a new must be found,
Take the young ones to a height.
Those who would...

Death And The Lady
As I walked out one morning in May
The birds did sing and the lambs did play

His head was bald, his beard was grey
His coat...

Goddess Of The Night
Deep in Shadow, hidden from sight,
Wandering by, like a thief in the night.
Slipping through cracks in Reality's wall,
Flying alone through Chaos' Hall.
Alone in the world, away from the Light,
Except for the company of the...

Today The Moon Is There
Hugh Read
In that mighty, non-human Power Place
Of mind that Is Not

Can you hear my cry
For fulfilment of my broken being
Faulted, cracked, torn
From that first painfilled day
Of savage, late birth
Send to me...
Rainbows

Where dwelleth my Lady in this land of Night?
She dwelleth in stars and satin moonlight.
She veileth her visage 'neath clouds spun of silk,
And the Night-Sky's a river of my sweet Mother's milk.
Where dwelleth...

the end which is the Beginning,

I am Hecate - the Old One, the Wise One, the Dark One.
I am Kali - the Dancer of Death, the Goddess of the Grave.
I am Lilith - the Devourer,...

The Shaman Call

Except for some Old Souls about a fire.
Sounds begin to rule the night,
As the Sun's bright rays...

Beneath The Full Moon
Come, I will sing it in your ear:
Your dancing days are come.
All the feeling you hold dear
Will lift your spirit some;
Dance until the rosey dawn
All in a gay, glad rag.
