be set free,
the ancient angel said
as she granted wisdom

presence in the mystery,
and perfect peace
in seeking

this too shall pass,
as all things
other from
the observer

take this glint,
a flicker of magic
and understanding

the wicked too shall pass,
just as the righteous
follow this guide
and uncover
the depths
of all
...

a slight touch,
a sudden flutter  
and energy
moving
upward

awakening,
to the new kingdom
where temporary
is permanent
and death
becomes life

fallen into a grave,
and revived
as a burning
sun
