Laughing Medusas

When I write, it's everything that we don't know we can be that is written out of me, without exclusions, without stipulation, and everything we will be calls us to the unflagging, intoxicating, unappeasable search for love. In one another we will never be lacking. ~Helene Cixous "The Laugh of the Medusa"

Kneeling
before you
in supplication.

My tongue
proclaiming devotion
without uttering a word.

In awe
of the goddess
before me.

Tell me ...
Does your god
run his fingers
through your hair
when you genuflect?

Fingers
gingerly caressing
soft skin,

Trembling
with disbelief,

As the sacred
entwines
the profane.

Adornments shed.

I am unworthy
to pray before you,
to gain entrance here,
at the holiest of holies,
your inner sanctum.

~Asherah
