ISHE O WA

Durga Sita Lakshme Kali

What the gods have done
Parvati cannot be undone

COME NOW

Come now
not when I am sick and old
in my youth in my prime come
when my hands brim over
and I know not how
to unburdon my heart
of all this gladness
now when I choke
with sap and bend
like a slender tree
burdoned with much fruit
later go away
alone I wand to take
the road of my decay
your pity whether true of false
I will never need

APHRODITE'S STAR

I saw you rise
over the vineyards
in your lightbeams
the vines were enthralled
I saw you over the sea
the waves envied you
from my cell window
I greeted you
from the arms of love
over the fires of war I saw you

Master and slave to no one
I desired and claimed you
Knowing you belong to
all eyes that see you

I heard you call
out of the windmills
from your sweet sound
the wind paused to sigh
I heard you under the sea
the sirens met you
into my cell walls
your voice resounds
from the cold hard stone
over the chorus of lies I heard you
