She descends
In winged dominance
	Over barren waters
	My fear is entranced
		Holy reverberations
		Mountains quiver.
High-winged creatures clap 
Distanced, they circle Her air.
	Time caves in my space
	She cups my broken waste.
			I am packed meat in
			Her crusted cocoon.
		I cry Her wasted tear.
		Blue sky above and near.
			Salted demons dance
			On thirsted tongue.
		And now, in Her rigid rock-womb
		A bloody song is rung.
	Ears bleed forth
	I’ve lost sight of Her sun.
		Angry sparks fly in the bellied
		Soul of my eye.
Screaming breath, I crack her nest egg of death.
	I fear Her no more
	I am Her fathered son of lore.
