Glycon

~

Who has fallen into the underworld,

if All is God in immanence held?

Spirit stuck in a material mind,

sleeping Dragon dreaming blind.

~

Which human can tame the Beast,

instinctual Creature in all asleep?

It can be woken, and fire raised,

but who can bear baptismal flames?

~

The Giant sleeps with his crown,

in pure resplendence all around;

containing all the kingdoms wild,

green unto gold to be reconciled.

~

Slowly waking stirs the Dragon,

the Serpent King in his wisdom;

into a "Burning Tree" all aflame,

the way to Heaven there to climb.

~

Atop the Tree a golden Star,

the Angel to who we all aspire;

be the climber, "true vine" awake,

Glycon, Kukulkan, canny Snake.

~

Pen-dragon plumed and mighty,

scaly one who scales the heights;

kundalini power of libidinal passion,

creative force in nature flowering.

~

And so the Sun-Pearl is fire-forged,

"of the waters", baptized born;

the Sol-like Soul lifted on high,

"Lapis elevatus cum vento", to fly.
