sounds were rising –
chrysalides for the yet unborn
crystalline shivers…
still were the waters,
undead the moonlight –
and aerial was the calling
of the sound-bender…
and all were silent…
Elysium bowed
under salty heaviness
and doubled up with pain,
unallowed to rebirth the lost
yet sounds kept rising –
chrysalides breaking
tracing furrows
in the molten souls that were
listening…
unshed fire caressed
crimson and black and golden
and hearts were born
where there had been none
and all were crying…
rocks blossomed under
the taming ether
exposing the bones of
ancient rainbows
and sounds kept rising –
chrysalides blooming
mourning the morning
never to come…

The focus of "The BeZine," a publication of The Bardo Group Beguines, is on sacred space (common ground) as it is expressed through the arts. Our work covers a range of topics: spirituality, life, death, personal experience, culture, current events, history, art, and photography and film. We share work here that is representative of universal human values however differently they might be expressed in our varied religions and cultures. We feel that our art and our Internet-facilitated social connection offer a means to see one another in our simple humanity, as brothers and sisters, and not as “other.” This is a space where we hope you’ll delight in learning how much you have in common with “other” peoples. We hope that your visits here will help you to love (respect) not fear. For more see our Info/Mission Statement Page.
