Poetry

JOURNEYMEN LIVE
by E. Shaun Russell
Beyond, beyond the solar light
Appeared to me transcendent sight
With immortal hand, eternal eye,
A guise of abstract oh so sly;
Manifold of numbers some,
Entered deity mind not numb,
Words of poets held me fast:
Slow time ‘fore quick time was cast.
Conversing had no real say
As through the sums I made my way;
Needless for some friends or peers--
Chartless chanceless least my fears.
Bliss, not magic, gaunt yet fair
Revealed a goddess’ shoulders bare,
Flowers in hand, steadfast gaze,
Through infinity’s divinity praise;
Kaleidoscope of buried boon,
Spatial godseed awakens soon;
To become an ageless entity,
Then my being shall be free!
Join the Goddess in her Void,
Confusion coming less annoyed,
The futile struggle, needless strife,
Till I share the secret of ceaseless life!

The above poem was posted with permission.
Below is one of my own poems with a transhuman theme.

THE FIRE SONG
by Brandon Pyle
"…fire is ultra-life…It implies the desire to annihilate time and to bring all things to their end. Fire is the archetypal image of phenomena in themselves. To pass through fire is symbolic of transcending the human condition…"
~ Juan E. Cirlot, A Dictionary of Symbols
O! Light of life, my purity, my song,
Anoint me with your hunger; feed my soul.
Illuminate the right amid the wrong,
And carry me in flames toward the Whole.
O! Light of Heaven, sanctify my mind
And burn away my flesh in offering.
Release me from the chill of humankind
That I may truly feel the warmth you bring.
O! Light of Hell, deliver me from fear
By showing me the shadows of my sin.
Embrace me in the iridescent sphere
Of knowledge you are burning deep within.
O! Light of death, my once forgotten dream,
The beauty of rebirth cannot surpass
This infinite rejoicing in the themes
Of Oneness your transcendent flames amass.
O! Light of truth, my vision, my demise,
Let nothing dowse the faith you symbolize.
