A Sonnet
Mother Master, our Twin-Divine
Architects of our Yoga beyond Time.
Transform us whole from head to toe
Spare not the higher or the depths below.
In every lair seems planted Thy word
Thy occult-light protecting us as a sword.
Body, bone and every living tissue
Now rid themselves of every old issue.
Vacant my being, my ship halts mid-waters
And last vestiges of time-born me falters.
My mind and life and heart now do urge
For Thy transmuting fire and its upward surge.
Grant us now a higher birth to the One,
Wombed by Thee in a gold-spirited Sun.

Sonnet — Daily Poetry for The Master of Works #82
Who shall know the grim onslaught
From aimless hours that besiege,
The mind is cleaved from thought
And the heart barred from feeling.
A makeshift appearance is present
And denied all agency of being,
The will like a sceptre broken is kept,
None remains to direct any becoming.
Is this crucible from some void wrought,
To all our impulsions with a nay replying?
Like when time was young and life stirred not
And the first cell fought all earth for its birthing.
Are we marked for Thy barren experiments only
And the happier attempts for those wrought nobly?
