You ride the back of night<BR>
into the low hum of moonless wonder<BR>
where dreams adorn you<BR>
for the dawn of your man-making.<BR>
You curl like a cub seeking a lost comfort.<BR>
Even your bones throb with premonition.<BR>
<BR>
Morning drinks the sky<BR>
licking away the silver studs of darkness.<BR>
Your eyes widened with night<BR>
narrow to the summons.<BR>
Unfed muscles beg for new power.<BR>
Wits gnash at fear crouched in crevices behind you.<BR>
<BR>
You must dig into a source<BR>
hidden from your humanness<BR>
but known to beasts <BR>
guided by survival.<BR>
Keep your name from doubt.<BR>
The Holy One is calling.</P>
