Laments Of A Male Mother (excerpts)

Genital Magic or Graveyard of the Living Dead

Serpentine forces no longer guard the gateway.
Chaotic forces are controlled
by the Word that courses through the veins of human
as I sit on my tombstone throne
eating corpses, blood dripping from my lips,
while howling at the Garou,
the dancers of the moon.
My devouring aspect is now in duality.
My mouth once held the fires of Hell
and I once marched across landscapes
multi-armed with weapons of death and destruction.
Skulls were once my chalice
until I became intoxicated on human emotions.
Now, I am an androgynous Death Goddess.
I surrender to incestuous images.
I am a loner, walking the labyrinths streets
in dark cities in the mind of man.
I am the homeless crone, offensive in my stare,
as my hips sway with vulgarity
and a stench of death rises from my anus.
My phallus wraps around my leg
hissing its profane and chaotic nature
that seeks consciousness
within the hungering wails between human thighs.
Yet, no touch eclipses me for Death into Life is sought
by all who seek to look into the mirror in the Mind.
Between my thighs they say is the crossing
where everything meets everything and the Nothing.
My appetites cannot be buried in rituals, and in the hands of gods
who fear their death within this Sarcophagus.
Yet, from those who rose from my body
the Dreaming Gods join them and become
as Wanderers witnessing the horror of my multitude of faces
as they must eat their shadows that they named into existence
that now rest and slumber in those places in the between worlds.
Now that a human has made me a tree, a bed, and a throne,
my graveyard lies between the borders of Heaven and Earth.
I am the Eye not born and that is between a man and a woman.
This graveyard is the pregnant possibilities.
The Child is the battleground of the Shadow.
The Whore sits on its tombstone throne
holding the golden cup,
so drink from me and know thy selves.
I sing to the Dead who sit around me
waiting to eat my stories
"Come and know the Life, come and know the Life."
