- I Just Knew
- So
youre the Great Goddess
-
How come they never mentioned you when I was being schooled?
-
Though come to think of it, they did;
-
Scarlet woman, Babylonian whore.
-
- My father said I may worship you,
-
And told me I was Freyas child, because I was born on Friday.
-
Strange, that; he is a good Christian,
-
Jesus man, Marys servant.
-
- I am told, my Lady,
-
Your secret name talks of circumpolar stars,
-
Never beyond the horizon;
-
Just how many names do you have?
-
- Sweet Isis, Mother of All,
-
Queen of Heavens,
-
Mistress of the Waters, Protectress of all that is living;
-
Nobody told me you were there, Mother, my Mother.
