Pulled
a poem of blackness in ode to the Divine Feminine
The signal comes, it floods me,
flushes through like rapids,
in the morning of a young spring.
I tumble under the might. Helpless.
I sink in the whirlwind. Pulled.
To the bottom of the vale,
where I know She is waiting for me.
The sky above is scratched,
the stars violently revolving,
spirals shrinking over me,
until they collapse into my eyes.
I drown in meaning, gasping.
Breath after breath, swallowing.
A thick fluid paralyzing my lungs.
I beg for help, there is none,
until it fills me open,
and I can't hold it anymore.
She is full of terrible delights.
And when I finally let go.
Unable to resist,
to say the name.
There I find myself hanging
by the thread of my sanity.
In the dark vastness of all.
Sitting on her sweet swing.
My toes sketching portraits
of Her on the sand.



A man doesn’t meet the feminine by containing her.
He meets her by surviving her.
Huh. I wrote a song when I was a teenager about being old and dying that imagined a divine feminine entity “taking me up and turning me into fire in her breast.” That’s some Jungian, Rupert Sheldrake shit. Still a reluctant agnostic, for now …
