The Third
Invocation of ABRAXAS
by Shade Oroboros
I sing
the god who is a single star,
burning in the aethyrs of the Night.
I sing the god of
many forms,
who remains
forever formless.
The wheel of
worlds is turning,
and the word of
silence spoken.
The mask is joy
& beauty,
the breath love
under will.
I sing of the
Child who is serpent & hawk,
of the Self
that finds No Other.
I sing of the
dancing cosmos,
the same within
and without.
My spirit flows
through many colors
in the rainbow
and the labyrinth
Yet finds in
All the Two made Naught,
the Light in
Dark, the Dark in Light.
I have named
the ever nameless God:
It Is ABRAXAS!
Ecstasy, the
soul of flame, the perfect stone,
the Tree struck
by lightning in the holy Night.
Emptiness held
in my Hand,
Eternity in my
Eye.
