In Death there is Life

In Death there is Life

Lifetime built against the strains
gathers in determined eyes
gaze across the open plains
where adjuration lives or dies.

Deep within a nagging guilt
while grounds rumble under him
he, this fortress, all he built
faced mortality, life and limb.

All events pass through his mind
as stinging blow turned to shock
a blow that came from behind
down he went this steady rock.

Episteme pours out spheres
while blood drips in crimson drops
all he was throughout the years
fades to shadows as heartbeat stops.

Last moments drain on the earth
arms reach out for longer stay
with promise of better worth
his consciousness then whisked away.

Through the door into the light
the universe spins in rhymes
mission ends, as well his fight
the part he played in trying times.

Harmonic waves then ensue
where pre-earth memories rise
comes the gnosis and the nous
hermetic wisdom of the wise.

In life there is death,
in death there is life.

About this Poem: As time grows shorter and the end draws near, I find I'm reading and writing more while coming into phase with the universe and the realities on earth...Something I wrote while reading the book, "The Quest for Hermes Trismegistus".
