Bidding Shadow and Resistance

I. The Bidding

It is time again

wail your way if you must

step, step back

to that dreaded side

Familiar and feared

Tainted like a Halloween moon

with unanswered echoes - 

and flashes from your past

that you dare not utter

Whispering passes your ear

in disguised tones

Follow Me

to that trunk of tattered and musty remnants -

They delight in throwing apparitions

Into your sweating dreams.

II. The Resistance

I command you to release me

from my mind's eye

All fragments of you

For you are only my Shadow

You serve a purpose

But I will not feed you

I will resist, bathing in the release

From the prison of your pelt

and the jail of your Judgment

I sundance in this second's solace

Like a sparked engine revving

My mind races away

to a beautiful, distant nothingness

Glipse after glipse,

a labyrinth of

Captured colors and popping bubbles

appear at the touch of this moment

I am nothing but this moment

Which is Everything and Bliss

I am a curled chrysalis~

When radiant wings emerge

Will dry like powerful new arms

Remembering trickling dimensions

like a magnet, I am

Pulled back to my Freedom
