prajna

goddess devotion
fermenting like potion
in time and in line
with the ocean-mind's motion

lucid lunations
that echo vibrations--
the ebb and the flow
rule my heart's elevation

so i bow, yes
    i kneel
being humbled so soon
in the golden effulgence
that lights up this room

and drips from your eyes
in rippling tides
out into the warp
and the weft you devise

scattering seeds
which into form bloom
a ferry to carry you
beyond the tomb

germinate sprouts
i count in hearts prayer
sound clusters like beads
that ring in the air

and head for your heart
where the sacred fire dwells
counting the rhythm
of galaxy swells

a wish that form falls
just under your feet
as you follow  fate's  course
with grace ever-fleet

for lucidest lightning
to shine from your eye
and cleave the worn sheaths
of adamant mind

revealing the mark
of the inborn devine
