Quetzalcoatl's Song
by Empress Penguin
Age Group: Adult
Quetzalcoatl's Song
Once he spoke the language of flowers
where white maundering clouds
fleeted across the moon, high in the Heavens.
A Mazatec Indian
in the mountain range of the Sierra Mazateca
disappears in the darkness
as light comes and goes
by intervals.
Between blank walls
to regions unknown
a Shaman grumbles and expostulates
visionary insights into obscurities,
mysteries,
perplexities of existence,
amusing phrases
of mushroom drunkenness.
Crossed legged on the floor
close to the fire
breathing the incense
of pressed flowers,
and ages old traditions;
he speaks in the night
of chirping crickets
who join the crying
of each falling, dying
flake of snow.
Transformation...
The legend of Quetzalcoatl
aflames the blue of far skies,
where fountains of fire rise up
fall
and rise again
with sparks like stars for drops,
as the passing wheel of time
brings disconnected flowers
among chirping crickets
and blood red moons.
