Fascination
held me fast
Astonished
at what had past
The
humdrum beat was not all there was
A
world beyond yet within my grasp
Entering
in
I was
adept at the craft
It
was plainly true
I could
tell
the
future and all its travails
Deeper
and deeper I journeyed in
Awareness
of a greater mind
awed by the power
no
sense of shame crossed my mind
But out
of nowhere
the
darkness came
leering
demons
At Me!
like
a shot
The
battlefield arose, surrounding me
colossal
and
gargantuan
colossal
and
gargantuan
the power
marshaled against me
Delphi
at my side
whispering lies
But
the Ancient One
He
walked the sky
Peace
eternal and profound
gentle as rain
I was found
Shame laid bare
My
choice was clear
the eternal ONE
saved
me
from
the lies
