Holy Depths Of Nothingness

Kneeling waist deep in glowing silver waves, 
Khaos dips soft hands in swirling lake of stars 
and lifts from holy depths of nothingness 
enormous galaxy of spinning worlds 
which lifts its face and stares into her eyes, 
so she bears the turtle to her beach cave. 

Observing how shape of the turtle shell 
resembles mountains rising from the beach, 
Khaos envisions how world of wind-swept trees 
floats in vast ocean of conceptual hope, 
so she explores steep slope of humming trees 
to find the highest point of innocence. 

Tall tangle-haired man wearing wolf-skin cloak 
extends right hand and offers sun-orange fruit, 
so she consumes light of the flashing rain 
while he fills her with spirit of the moon, 
then wanders back to cave beach of her heart 
where she expands huge as the surging sea. 

When darkness swells inside her aching heart, 
and bulges round as galaxy of worlds, 
Khaos gathers clams and roasts them on hot flames, 
then slurps delicious meat of energy 
that motivates her heart with shock of faith 
to sing heart-radiant hymn of holy love. 

When she gives birth to child with gleaming eyes, 
who wriggles wildly in her trembling arms, 
Khaos weeps with fierce compassion of surprise 
then suckles him at breasts of starry milk, 
humming as he gazes at her with love, 
then speaks his name, Erebus, with respect. 

While gathering clams in leather bag of hope, 
Khaos shows Erebus how to bundle wood 
as they stroll laughing on broad beach of sand, 
then stand together when strong gust of wind 
whips hair around their faces with bright joy 
and sunlight weaves their bodies with delight. 

When wolf man from the cloud-high mountain grove 
appears on windy beach with long sharp spear, 
Khaos notes sharp features of his rugged face, 
then gazes at face her curious son, 
and feels sweet glow of wisdom flush her heart 
to realize how she incarnates his soul. 

While weaving baskets from flexible vines, 
Khaos watches wolf man and Erebus play, 
running swiftly along sun-gleaming beach, 
gathering sticks and stones with clever hands, 
then crafting tridents with three sharpened points 
to catch fish they eat beneath twinkling stars.
