BETWEEN THE WORLDS
Kilsharion AP Lupo di Morti


We all begin, somewhere, somewhen.
The mysterious force we name Life
Calls us forth from the Beyond,
And out of the womb we emerge,
Hail and Whole,
Screaming our triumphant return.
Life calls to us, and we answer
Challenging and brave, timid and scared
Loving and peaceful, hating and spiteful
Every emotion known to humanity swarms
Through the mercury of our souls, and
We scream our response to the Call of Life.
Then the forces turn, and the
Beyond shows that it has not loosened its hold
>From within the folds of the ether
Comes that One. Beauty unrivaled,
Compassion and Grace defined.
The One who dances with Life and
Endures and Exceeds all Time.
As we pass through this world,
We experience and learn,
Taking our knowledge with us to
The Summer Lands.
As Death entices us over
The Threshold, we enter the ether
Becoming fully one with the Cosmos,
Experiencing everything and nothing,
Perfect balance, and.
Beginning again, we enter Life,
Screaming our triumph
Howling our challenge.
I have returned unto Life -
That great and wondrous force.
I have passed through Death -
That equalizing balance.
I have continued. I will endure.
For, are not my sisters and brothers
None other than Ra, Kali, Cronos,
Athena, Diana, Apollo, Zeus, Lugh
The Gods and Goddesses
Walk between the worlds.
And I?
I walk amongst them.
