<div class="verse">Here is the difference betwixt the poet and the mystic, that the last nails a symbol to one sense, which was a true sense for a moment, but soon becomes old and false. For all symbols are fluxional; all language is vehicular and transitive, and is good, as ferries and horses are, for conveyance, not as farms and houses are, for homestead. Mysticism consists in the mistake of an accidental and individual symbol for an universal one.</div>

<div class="verse">I was born at the edge of the numinous.
|
||||
|
||||
That is why I can to tread along the border.
|
||||
That is why I'm able to whisper the name of God.
|
||||
That is why I'm allowed to know the number and how to factor it.
|
||||
That is why I have seven fingers spread wide and three curled toward my heart.
|
||||
That is why my limbs trace the curves and lines of power when I dance.
|
||||
That is why I sit with my back to the sun in summer.
|
||||
That is why my body is a canvas.
|
||||
|
||||
You were born in the sunlight.
|
||||
|
||||
Speak secrets into my hair.
|
||||
Take my words from me.
|
||||
Spend the intercalary days telling me lies.
|
||||
Break my dystonia with a breath.
|
||||
Wash my face with salt water.
|
||||
Tell me the name you call yourself.
|
||||
Close my eyes.
|
||||
|
||||
We will sleep in the shade.
|
||||
|
||||
Let me bless you with smoke.
|
||||
Let me bathe your feet.
|
||||
Let me light the candles.
|
||||
Let me place a stone beneath my tongue.
|
||||
Let me taste copper.
|
||||
Let me draw in ash.
|
||||
Let me rise up until my head is in the branches and my hair becomes the leaves.</div>

At the beginning of time, when chaos birthed to order and disorder, we were blessed with two souls. One has seven eyes and can see all of the monsters in the dark, but is blinded by the sun. The other has no eyes, but can feel no pain. When order and disorder were close as children, our souls experienced the world hand in hand, but as they drifted apart and began to fight, some of us left one of our souls behind, and that is why we search.

Babel was a collaborative effort. Once, we all spoke the same language, but on seeing god grow increasingly anxious with the rate of our progress, we agreed to let our tongues be confused, so that he could take things at a more comfortable pace, and we could be assured he would not understand us unless we prayed in silence, for only then do we speak the language of angels.

I went for a walk and was driven by impulse to collect five sticks. They had to be as straight as possible. They had to be balanced as close to the middle as possible. They had to be the same length without me breaking them. They had to have been from different trees. They had to have fallen more than a year prior.
|
||||
|
||||
When I got home, I lay them in a row, asked my question, and, one by one, broke them in half.

<div class="verse">When I speak, the words drip from my tongue as ink,
|
||||
and form writing on the ground,
|
||||
and I leave a trail behind me,
|
||||
and the ink stains your feet,
|
||||
and when you walk, words and phrases and sentences are pressed into the soil,
|
||||
and the ink breathes life into the plants,
|
||||
and even the grass will flower,
|
||||
and the bees will flourish,
|
||||
and they will both sting you and provide you with sweet honey.
|
||||
|
||||
The ink stains my chin and my clothes.
|
||||
Sometimes, I speak into my hands and stain my cheeks as well.
|
||||
I speak against my fingers and press them into my flesh until I am covered in rosettes.
|
||||
I stretch my hands to the sky and marvel at how black they are.
|
||||
And as with the grass, where the ink stains, growth quickens, and I am covered in soft fur.
|
||||
I fall to all fours and hunt amid the rocks and the buildings, between cars and along trails.
|
||||
And when I am full, I curl up to sleep, and awake human once again.
|
||||
My skin is clean and my mind is clear,
|
||||
|
||||
and I cannot speak.</div>

<pre class="verse">The only time I know my true name is when I pray.

|

The only time I pray is at the utmost need.
|
||||
|
||||
To pray is to ask yourself what you dare not ask god.
|
||||
|
||||
To answer your own question, you must step outside yourself.
|
||||
|
||||
To step outside yourself, you must forget your true name.
