the forgotten religions

Labels: 0 observations

the forgotten religions are not a mystery to me
for the histories wear well in the tapestries of threads
that do not burn or cut or fray as days turn to years.

the forgotten religions are arcane only to the ignorant
and those who suppose too much to know that which is unknowable,
the secrets whispered in blistering heats and cooling kisses.

the forgotten religions are not forgotten, merely ignored
by those who do not see the resonance of each footstep and tear, wept
then swept away by the hands of time and crime and forces sublime.

    Explaining the Tags

    You will note, gentle reader, that all works under this blog now display "tags" to help classify and assign the works for your review and enjoyment.

    These largely fall into 4 categories:

    Year of writing, e.g. "1999"
    Book published in, e.g. "from an unexpected quarter"
    Inspiring muse, e.g. "Aubergine"
    Genre, e.g. "erotica"

    We are still in the process of cleaning up the tags, so please bear with us. Yes, some muses are classified under more than one tag, some poems appear in more than one book, or not yet in any volume, and some years are...hazy.
