From the mouth of Abraxas
A spectral force carries
Aloud the magical words
Ab, abba, ben, ruach,
Abracadabra the singular
Language of the Beginning.
Ha-berakhah, says
The Lord, not abracadabra.
For the word is a blessing:
The naturing of nature.
I will create as I speak,
Says Abraxas, I create
Like the word because I am
The word that creates.
Ha-berakhah.
Bless you.
Tired now,
Tired of speaking,
Tired of language,
Trite language .
The spirit returns to
The mouth of the cave
And remains silent
Until
