Finding new iterations of holy inside, with each breath, recreating the space between two pulses.

To exist is to hold life, death, and reincarnation as kin As a spinning of dying stars that became being, boundless No norms hold, no barriers survive, no confines shape divinity. I am ALWAYS with me.

Air above the mountain, Fire from the fountain, Water in the desert, Earth deeper under the sea I will always be with me. As volcano creates new land, As wind makes mountains out of sand, Part of Mother’s cosmic plan, I will always be with me. Emblazoned by my spirit’s Truth, Grounded by a heart of Youth, Submerged in Eternity, Lifted above Everything. I will always be with me. نارى فى مياهى My fire in my waters ارضى فى هوايا My land in my air و القالب عادل And the template is fair نهرى فى حمامى My river in my lavas سمايا فى اهرامى My skies in my pyramids و الغالب عادم And mostly exhausted رباعى لرباعى My quad to my quadruple رعابى لرعابى My panic to my panic و الطالب عاقل And the requester is sane سائل ,عادل ,حالم ,آمل ,سالم ,عادم Questioning, just, dreamer, hopeful, peaceful, exhausted Culmination, I am prism, Kaleidoscopic, my existence I am learning how to become one...one with all four. واحد ,واحد بالاربعه One, one with all four نارى فى مياهى My fire in my waters ارضى فى هوايا My land in my air و القالب عادل And the template is fair نهرى فى حمامى My river in my lavas سمايا فى اهرامى My skies in my pyramids و الغالب عادم And mostly exhausted رباعى لرباعى My quad to my quadruple رعابى لرعابى My panic to my panic و الطالب عاقل And the requester is sane سائل ,عادل ,حالم ,سالم Questioning, just, dreamer, peaceful نارى فى مياهى My fire in my waters ارضى فى هوايا My land in my air و القالب عادل And the template is fair نهرى فى حمامى My river in my lavas سمايا فى اهرامى My skies in my pyramids و الغالب عادم And mostly exhausted رباعى لرباعى My quad to my quadruple رعابى لرعابى My panic to my panic و الطالب عاقل And the requester is sane سائل ,عادل ,حالم ,سالم ,عادم Questioning, just, dreamer, peaceful, exhausted واحد ,واحد بالاربعه One, one with all four

about

Infinite, spinning thread across constellations, seeking, always seeking. Finding new iterations of holy inside, with each breath, recreating the space between two pulses. But a breath away, a pulse between dying stars that became souls. But a moment between truth and fiction, A story never told by those too afraid to believe in magick. Culmination, I am prism, Kaleidoscopic, my existence. I am learning how to become one...one with all four. Fifth element like I’m metal. I am beyond your senses, past your binary limits. Wider than all the oceans, farther than all existence. Fived & protected, rare. Fived & protected, able. Sleeping in my knowledge dreaming. Rising in my dream knowing. I have always been with me. Singing in the now.

This is a journey into becoming oneself with the elements of time, space, and reality.
