“My dark one
stands there as if nothing's changed
after taking entire
into his maw
all three worlds
the gods
and the good kings
who hold their lands
as a mother would
a child in her womb--
and I
by his leave
have taken him entire
and I have him in my belly
for keeps.”

“Poets,
beware, your life is in danger:
the lord of gardens is a thief,
a cheat,
master of illusions;
he came to me,
a wizard with words,
sneaked into my body,
my breath,
with bystanders looking on
but seeing nothing,
he consumed me
life and limb,
and filled me,
made me over
into himself.”

“Master
of illusions
with no one equal
or above
form and breath of all things:
becoming mother and father
you made me know
what I couldn't know
I do not even know
the things you've done for me”
