Starlight
I was made with a key
I would open to you
like a music box
tuned in the forge of
a god
I would open to you
spilling out into
the aether
delicate and refined
like the sweetest perfume
Forgetting in the remembrance
of starlight
every strand (one)
Would you turn your gaze
upon me?

Circles
I slowly circle around my material
possessions
over them is the miasma of energy I
have allowed to linger
no longer do they hold me paralyzed
unable to contemplate their fate
I hold out the burning sage,
ring the bell
wipe away cobwebs, slowly, just a few
at first
still tentative and unable to put
like with like
trash with trash, categorize what is
left of my life
I fear the end tally.
Created by years of tawdry laziness
on my part
my heart knows that material is but a
phenomenon
but until I tend to the Gorgon's knot
of energy that lays about it
I will not be able to free it and see
it thus
so I sharpen my sword and turn to
Ganapati
O Lord of Categories and Remover of
Obstacles...
OM GOM GANAPATI NAMAH!
Grant me the vision to clear my dross
