This is the first part of my soon to be released Book "Chantry Circuitry". It is a series of poetic calls and incantations to Mystical and Archetypal figures. The Mandalas are meditation tools constructed from manipulated images of the poetry. Digital Release of the Full Book of Chantry Circuitry planned in time for Halloween!
Call To The Bard
I call to you, O Chieftain Bard,
Your letters move. lyrics flow.
We Throw words, dealer’s cards.
Entrancing all in fire’s glow.
On script, On stage, chime, glow
Call our seekers from the streets.
Fed on facts, hungry to know
Our rhythm, prose, and beats.
Faces known, feet welcome,
Our voices, medicine.
We stir clouds, We shift stone.
Need and Gnosis trine.
Our eyes match their blinks.
Pitch your chant to mine.
I swim upon your flowing ink.
Our Norn ropes intertwine.
Happy Tomes Tuesday
