"ishtar" poems
I do not want a plain box, I want a sarcophagus With tigery stripes, and a face on it Round as the moon, to stare up. I want to be looking at them when they come Picking among the dumb minerals, the roots. I see them already -- the pale, star-distance faces. Now they are nothing, they are not even babies. I imagine them without fathers or mothers, like the first gods. They will wonder if I was important. I should sugar and preserve my days like fruit! My mirror is clouding over -- A few more breaths, and it will reflect nothing at all. The flowers and the faces whiten to a sheet. I do not trust the spirit. It escapes like steam In dreams, through mouth-hole or eye-hole. I can't stop it. One day it won't come back. Things aren't like that. They stay, their little particular lusters Warmed by much handling. They almost purr. When the soles of my feet grow cold, The blue eye of my tortoise will comfort me. Let me have my copper cooking pots, let my rouge pots Bloom about me like night flowers, with a good smell. They will roll me up in bandages, they will store my heart Under my feet in a neat parcel. I shall hardly know myself. It will be dark, And the shine of these small things sweeter than the face of Ishtar.

I beheld you once, oh deceitful goddess, blessed passion’s blight You were dancing, splendid Ishtar, whose wiles no man may evade Who’s burning eyes, those entrancing pools of gold, can set men’s souls alight At who’s dainty feet, to her uncouth delight, the blacken corpse is laid And I, being no mighty atlas, was swayed by your intoxicating dance I was caught and bound, to one whose beguiling eyes to me were as a snare And though it was she, my mortal love, not you, who held me in a trance I was you, oh Aphrodite, with your amorous charms, that lead me there! Surely, you foul siren, whose voice does strand the sailor out at sea Do not as well bring love and solace to some unhappy soul? Tell me, who brings true love, Aphrodite? Or are you two as faces on a coin, disparate yet together whole?

To Aphrodite
****** means "sheath". Oh, how tiresomely sexist, this utility. **** is a sharp word, but it will only ***** you if you so insist. And ********** means "to stand in for the Goddess" -- both Mother and ***** Fertility cults of Babylon hailed Ishtar, the young Sophia. In Sumerian times they did call Her Inanna, who shed Her jewels. Solomon the Wise did wed Her in his temple, and wrote Her a Song. At Her temple gates await the harlots, smiling: yours for but a coin. Sacred silver thrown, a rite of passage. Some wait. Some wait longer still. Wisdom works through them. The hierodules of Heaven beckon, honeysweet. "Come to the temple, let us dance the timeless dance, my Lord Dumuzi!" Rosy cheeks and lips, shamelessness in Her power. Passion at its peak. Too **** for words. Men feared Her and wrought cages, misdirected blame. Mary, the chaste one, is an abomination. Half, and the lesser. A neutered Mother with a ****** for swords, a scabbard for men. The Grail was stolen from between Her holy thighs. Paul was such a **** A **** who feared Her, Mystery of Death and Blood. Much more than a sheath.

Sheath
ome orth azarus, come th laz, ome for zus echo in the winds outside the empty cave; In the desert an insurrection to deluge the earth from cauldrons of faith; Tinderbox by the Dneiper, an interview stolen; Dance of Ishtar caged, the demiurge call. Treading on ice, our mortal lives; Ancient wells wailing with the earth; A vessel weathering the storm, sinking now at Galilee. At Golgotha, by the empty Crucifix; it all began here in Bethlehem where we wait.

Come forth, Lazarus.
In a desolate desert where peaches are scarce An oasis appears and a goddess prepares To ****** her next partner with apples and pairs And proposing a union she takes me upstairs Into the skyline and over the weather To a room in the clouds we inhabit together The book of life opens, she reads me my rites Informing my dreams for a thousand more nights Our foreplay, like Gospel, begins with a word Whispering wisdom and secrets unheard While waves of effulgence wash over my ears And unspeakable lightness conveys me to tears The courtship completed she lifts up her veil Undresses her figure and shows me her tail Her gown on the floor in a soft silky heap And we drift to the bedroom where cherubin sleep Melting like butter, collapsing before her Her miracle strength has me backed in a corner And so I surrender, no use to resist Beaten by Ishtar, I wait to be kissed She spreads herself open, unnaturally wide Receiving my body and spirit inside Inserting my tome like a book on her shelf We form an anthology, bound in one self No match for a goddess and giver of life And yet we conjoin as a husband and wife The muse and the poet are spun in one strand Just see how my pen is now firm in her hand With one leg in heaven and one in my bed I recline and receive her celestial head Arousing my mind and exchanging our dreams Through visions that swim in ethereal streams Perusing her volumes and rarely seen stacks A scholar who studies the shadows and cracks I reach out to ****** her wavydark hair Her substance reflecting like dust in the air I dip in her inkwell again and again In search of the words that will flow from my pen Receiving and giving, a cycle unending Eternal rewards from the muse I’m befriending

In a Christian world. The star an ensign. A symbol. Pointing out wicked wounds inflicted on Christ . While was crucified. By ignorance cruel. The points denote an insult on his tragic dying soul. Our saviour saved by pointed pain. Babylonians long since gone. Showed Heaven in four quarters. Jupiter, Mars, Lady Venus and Mercury. Houses in which archangels dwell. Quarters denoted by a star. Ishtar at the top. Five points, a symbol. The Grecian star divides by elements. And beautiful phases of the moon. Breathe in the air. Walk on earths mantle. Let fire not tempt fingers. Water to extinguish. Vision on the facets of the luna moon. Seasonal in phases. Young moon in spring, with water brings..seen in the West. Vernal equinox provides the life rebirth. Moon in youth is the summer brings..Second quarter in the South. Autumn comes with harvest moon. Middle age of lunar cycle. Dry as earth. Almost barren beauty. Three quarters of the cycle. Arises in the east. During autumns changing face and fruit filled feast. Coldness carries death in chains brings winter. In the North faces of the moon. Hidden in winter nights of death. Bring on the winter solstice. The final point I bring to you. Is in spirituality. Inspirational! By ladylivvi1 © 2013 ladylivvi1 (All rights reserved)

Symbolic Stars!
you glazed bricks blue at Ishtar Gate, deep seas where lion, bull and dragon dwell you are featured on the gold funeral mask of Tut, adorning his brow line in deep eternal hues. your name is summoned several times in the Epic of Gilgamesh, the oldest known piece of literature known to exist. your mere consonance of L's and slant assonances: eleven tongues licking all my holes.

ode to the bluest blue
Gilgamesh--two-thirds god, one-third man--was the despot of Uruk. He treated his subjects cruelly. To ameliorate this abominable situation, the gods create Enkidu, who was reared by animals. At first, Gilgamesh and Enkidu fight, but then become friends. They want to cut down a cedar forest that is off limits to mortals. The forest is guarded by a monster, Humbaba, who serves Enlil, the god of earth, wind, and air. With the help of Shamash, the sun god, the two **** Humbaba, then cut down the trees to make a raft. They float back to Uruk. Ishtar, the goddess of love, falls in love with Gilgamesh, but he rebuffs her. Angered, Ishtar asks her father, Anu, the god of the sky, to punish Gilgamesh by bringing down the Bull of Heaven that creates seven years of famine, but Gilgamesh and Enkidu fight and **** the bull. The gods seek revenge and **** Enkidu. Gilgamesh is forlorn, and in his grief begins to wear animals skins. He wanders through the wilderness. Gilgamesh finally meets Utnapishtim to whom the gods have given immortality, but he won't tell Gilgamesh how to gain immortality for himself. Gilgamesh therefore continues his travels, this time through total darkness, until he finnally reaches the sea with its beautiful surroundings. It is there that he meets Siduri. He tells her about his quest for immortality. She responds by telling him to abandon this quest and to learn how to enjoy the pleasures of what remain of the rest of his natural life. Men would die, but humankind would persevere. Gilgamesh is a changed man. He returns to Uruk and sees the city and its people in a different light. He will find meaning and gratification in the years he has left, and humanity will endure. Copyright 2020 Tod Howard Hawks

The coldness of my unleashed disinhibitions have gracefully succumbed to the wisdom of cosmological forces, despite my ravenous salivations for all that is vehemently forbidden. As I bark inside the relief of this solitary pound of articulated and socialised liberty, like an expression of abstract artistry within an ethical mudslide; I continue to teeter upon geographical tightropes which span unforgiving terrains across the ancient divides of propriety, where the baron plains of deuterocanonical origin are populated by restless spirits with gnashing teeth. So, if they could ever be personified, I could easily butcher a myriad of depravities which tangibly characterise my inner Astarte and Ishtar demons – although, such an event would have to occur after we have engaged in a myriad of abominations where raunchy and indulgent copulations shamefully expose our brazen wantonness to animalistic inclinations. Never offer to tie me down. Restriction diametrically opposes my socially skilled yet nomadic being, as it sojourns across a psychedelic array of vibrant gardens, and weaves through present pathways which are timeless in their being. It just is. That is the essence of ontology. Can we ever effectively contemplate the philosophies of predetermination and predestination? As I am not dichotomous in my thinking, there is a legitimate place for being an omnivore within the walls of our societal fabric. Although I radically accept that of which I do not approve, the psychology of ambivalence has led me to raise questions around the validity of horticulture. My clock has melted down the flamboyance of those multicolored mountainsides of being and nothingness.

I built the playhouse To withstand The seige of time. Like Hadrian, I dismayed the border people. Starlight shone through Crescent moons Like the Ishtar Gate of Babylon. Children shrieked and wailed Against those walls As nomads in northern China, Or Philistines in Jeruselum. But time is a formidable outsider, And my small walls would tumble To the blasts of tempus trumpets. My hand runs lovingly across Your names on those Memorial Walls.

Memorial Walls
Burning bridges. Originally, defined as follows – Intentionally cutting off one’s retreat. In the words of the immortal Caesar, As he crossed the Rubicon, unwilling to concede defeat - Let the die be cast. A bloodbath that built an Empire, Stretching wide, impossibly vast. Thus, later meaning – To alienate former friends. Is it an act to be reviled? Is it an act to be condemned, An instance of passions running wild? Or is it an act to be emulated? A last resort when hope for reconciliation Has been all but desecrated? We need connections, hope and love – We crave Ishtar’s white dove, A blessing from ‘the Queen of Heaven’. Yet, by the time the night’s hour numbers eleven, Many of us are collapsing, battered; Relapsing in toxicity, our spirit tired and scattered. When our soul is shared with others, It goes one of two ways; With the right influence, it grows and flutters. With the wrong kind, it falters and stutters. Trust your gut – If you get a feeling that says, Run, Do so as if you were an Olympic athlete And you just heard the starting gun. Do not compress yourself To fit the boxed-in view of someone else. Do not edit or trim out a single verse From the poetry that is your life. Live freely, choose wisely, Wield a voice that is steely, treat yourself and others kindly, Stand ALONE if you have to. In other words, some bridges need to be burnt; Some lessons need to be learnt. For sometimes it is better to burn the bridge as you retreat Than to keep on fighting just to avoid defeat. Caesar might have violently conquered all his opponents, But in the end did it matter When his own kinsmen were his assassination’s proponents?

I don't honor Easter Bunnies hoppin' on one leg I have no taste For colored "peeps" Or chocolate Easter eggs Thanks to Emperor Constantine We have this pagan brew I find the worship of Ishtar Has me in a stew! The holidays of pagans! And to see events of Christ Blended in with all of it Has my stomach in a vice! Take your rabbits And your "Ishtar" eggs I'll just have to pray I'd just prefer to call this time RESURRECTION DAY!

As every love
You're in hell, a fractioned ghost, eating clay and dust. You suppose time moves in this abyss but there's no way to be sure. Then: a scream at the gates like all the winds that scrape at the heart. & it doesn't take long before the screams resolve to a name: Ishtar is here. She of *** war, & the moon, all of them long absent in this place. She wants in, to rule this forsaken empire, to take it from her older sister, to conquer one more thing. She fails, of course. Her sister tricks her, leaves her naked, without her powers, after the final gate. Ishtar howls, and leaves to eat men like easy grain. But imagine that brief moment, when you think that maybe, just maybe, you'd see the organza ball of moon again, that you and the one next to you might embrace in shaded lust, engender a new empire in the dark, & overthrow it all. Hold on to your hope: Ishtar has never been patient.

Ishtar at the Gates of Hell
I can taste the dark ancestry of ghastly dreams where cloven hooves and flickering flames dance along the castle hallways in ritualistic celebration; and I love the night, where haunting apparitions caress my slippery soul and tantalise my deepest fears. Listen to the grandfather clock, as its hypnotically audible awareness transports our being to a myriad of dusty volumes upon the ancient shelves of a Golden Dawn. Owls are beautiful creatures of nocturnal stealth. Yet, the beginning is nothing more than the end, in her deceptive disguises. Although their are eight points to her identity, Ishtar has innumerable expressions. Therefore, attempts to domesticate are futile. Let us now invoke ancient daemons and engage in the wisdom of counsel, as we remain awake and share our confessions. Men are visual creatures.

Ghosts
And darkest the night when all seems lost, parts thick the blanket of fog; Desiccated to the bone when moonless in agony, go emptied of Spirit the skies, Broken in Her temples, desecrated in the shrines veiled, chained, burned at stake; Scattered lays She, as hope among the stars. Among a thousand tribes risen, to burst forth again, Diana and Ishtar, Athena and Brigid, crimson the rays that flood regnal the horizon in waves; Who casts time in the thrall of Her dice fire cannot burn, nor weapons hurt, who measures worlds in Her strides, the black rose, Mistress of the night, Garlanded in skulls of a thousand such who know not Her might whose hands sewn Her garment great trampled death under Her thunder trail Here She comes the ancient One:

Kali the Mother
When I wake up, it is void. Then the room unfolds around me – a cold stroke of reality. It brushes my skin, crawling up my legs, slowly warming as it spreads. A hand, unseen, caresses reality into my chest. It straddles me, then softly grips my neck. The pulse in my ears – slow – becomes the drums of war, calling a name: Ishtar. It’s time. Breathe for me, sweat for me. Let the footsteps of your fight feed the ground. Soak it in my will – become my altar. Your sword bears my truth. Crescent moons – my mark – cover your back. Eight-pointed stars – my sign – won’t leave you in the dark.

I'm silent violent and crazy. Summoning the dark prince because HE raised ME. I never went to school because of the late night rapings. redrum because of my wrecked ****** I was just a 9 year old baby. Outbursts of rage left me without a mother to save me from the gapings. 3 ****** years my *** was an elders for the taking. I dropped out of school and lost all my education. I found drugs and only used girls for ****** *********** I never saw hope, so to say i lost it would be mistaken. To find myself would only be to find Satan. Dressed in all black naked, on an alter of virgins blood bathing.  My frontal cortex is a vortex of anger from the poorest. If Lucifer holds the light of the world, then the sky I'm'a torch it. With the strength of Ishtar's forces. Trying to stop me, will be the train that leaves your body from your soul deported.

The evil within. within the evil.
Our dance is trance, Paint my eyes red, Lips slightly parted, wet iron and ash, I breathe you out, You hold me in, One move, one cut, thousand more, they fold, mother soaks, stars behind open eyes, every drop marks our path. Hands melt in hours, body warm, stone of yours Twin snakes of bones, dance of souls. Not mine or yours. Chameleon daggers, battle stars, morning awaits, dusk to dust cover us. Witness of the Moon, child of Bloom, Legit forged in battle, Take by two, left as one Sacred kingdom of sun, Grey of food, black fruit: sweetness of soul, Drip on my chin, flow free in chant. Now altar of yours. I eat your rage, take your blade, Feed my hunger, tear apart, clothes torn, ripped wings, morning sparks. That's when you rule, I give my body, will is yours, till the next night... When blade of hunger comes. Gold and red, skins are shred. Breath the earth as I demand. Crescent moons, between knees, ringed sun, crowned path. I touch ruby and emerald, Became a prism, to peel the sun. My voice is river, your body is the current. Mountains of will around, shoulder blades to hold, tells a story of the old. Now we curve into one again, Fed for good, left to loose, Eyes became mouth, spreads us. Freedom of day and night, Felt more sacred, than one of the eye. Other is turned to whisper of trust. Pantheon without us. How could they bear that was told Laws became our holds. Until we meet again: in echoes, breathes. Not day and night, but warmth and light.
