The Grail Marriage

The master
is trembling
convulsing
at the cross
yielding finally
to the father

The vortex of power
penetrating
into the
the hill at Golgotha
his blood
seeping into the ground
his light
tearing the veil apart

'Thy will be done'
the echo
of his command
reverberates down the centuries

Infatuation
an attraction of opposites
mirroring
in each other
what we believe
we are not

Love
a mystery
that is revealed
when two become one

Marriage
a union
of contradictions
a dance
of apparently irreconcilable
differences

Marry me
Lets become one flesh
It will be a marriage
of the grail

I vow to purify my desires
in the fire of sacrifice
so that I may impregnate
the Mother
with gentleness
and wisdom

I vow to create space
for courage and strength
in my life
So that I might receive
the power and wisdom
of the Father

and together
we will serve Mankind

We are one
We are the ring of life
Let our combined strength heal the world.
