The Wolf Sky

 

 

 

 

 

 

THE CIRCLE SONG

The East the air the sword the mind

The gate that leaves the night behind

 

The North the sun the flame the fire

The gateway to our souls’ desire

 

The West the womb the water’s flow

The gateway to the world below

 

The South the star the silent Earth

The gateway to our souls’ rebirth

 

(This song casts circle in the Southern hemisphere.

For Northern hemisphere, switch Fire to South,

and Earth to North.)

 

 

THE WOLF SKY

 

I lay upon the hill

That lay beneath the wolf sky

I felt the dark clouds forming

An omen apparition

And with the thunder rolling

A howl preceded the storm

 

We lay within the bird

That lay beneath the Wolf Sky

We lay within its wing and

We felt the bird within us

And with the thunder rolling

We left the ground for the sky

 

We drank the dark clouds deeper

And ran the wild moon hunting

Alive with fur and feather

As omen apparition

We left the moon suspended

And leapt back onto the ground

 

We lay upon the hill

That lay beneath the Wolf Sky

We felt the dark clouds forming

An omen apparition

And with the thunder rolling

A howl preceded the storm

We lay beneath the wolf sky

 

 

 

 

OBLIVION

 

Who is whispering behind the veil?

I cannot see her face

But I know that it is pale

I cannot see her lips

But I know I want to kiss them

And when she calls my name

I will no longer resist them

 

Who is whispering behind the veil?

I cannot see her face

But I know that it is pale

She calls me to let go

To leave this damaged world I’m living in

To feel it slip away

To taste the sweetness of oblivion

 

Amidst the roar of thunder

Hear me call you under

Hear me call you under

Do you hear me call you under?

My fingers long to feel you

Caress you, reveal you

Undress your soul and steal you

Away

 

Who is whispering behind the veil

I long to see her face

But I fear that I will fail

To look into her eyes

To see my spirit splinter

To feel my blood run cold

To see the dead of winter

 

And with the roar of thunder

Hear me call you under

Hear me call you under

Do you hear me call you under?

And there is no denying

All of life is dieing

And still I hear you crying

Not now

 

 

 

SHE DANCED ALONE UPON THE WAVES

 

She danced alone upon the waves

Alone upon the water

Alone upon the water

She took the north wind by the tail

Caressed it till She felt the serpent scale

He coiled around Her limbs divine

Her dance as wild as fire

Her dance as wild as fire

She had created sea from sky

And knew Her lover loved Her movements

 

Once She divided the sky from the ocean

All of creation was then set in motion

Becoming dove upon the sea

She laid the egg that held eternity

 

The serpent spiralled ‘round its form

And cradled in His magic

Cradled in His magic

The sacred vessel soon grew warm

And split to open all existence

 

Out of it tumbles the Earth and Her creatures

Rivers and mountains and forests and beaches

Out of it Sun

Out of it Moon

She danced alone upon the waves

And born of chaos was existence

Born of chaos was existence.

 

 

HALF LIFE

 

It’s not like I want it back again

It’s not like I want the sky to open

And rain down in visions of black again

But now that the sun has finally broken through

There’s not a lot I can do

There’s not a lot I can do

The sky is perfectly blue

 

The wind comes, whips the trees bare again

The wind comes, exposing secrets of the form

Part of me wants to be there again

Restless, naked, howling for the dawn

I’m not invoking a storm

I’m not invoking a storm

The air is perfectly warm

 

It’s not like I want it back again

Chaos can find another lover

It’s not like I’m wearing all black again

The days come sweet, but are they cutting through?

There’s not a lot I can do

There’s not a lot I can do

The sky is perfectly blue

 

If it’s not love then make it pain

Not some sort of Half-Life I can’t explain

And if it’s peace then make it real

Not this sort of numbness that I cannot feel

Take all my joy but leave me my fears

This sort of Half- Life bores me to tears

So bring me rapture and bring me bliss

Or take it all away but don’t leave me this

 

It’s not like I want it back again

It’s not like I want my heart ripped open

In some sort of vicious attack again

But now that the sun has finally broken through

There’s not a lot I can do

There’s not a lot I can do

The sky is perfectly blue.

 

 

 

THE FALL

 

I fall, I fall

Into the darkest hole I fall

 

And I move

Move as though my skin were scales

As though the soil were water

And I was the wave

As though the soil were water

And everywhere the sapphire sea

Was life, was life was life

And the ocean was singing to me

 

I fall, I fall

Into the darkest hole I fall

 

And I move

Move as though the sky and sea

Were no longer separate

And the waves that wash over me

Were no longer separate

And the waves that wash over me

Were alive alive alive with a force that I cannot see

 

I fall, I fall

Into the darkest hole, I fall

 

And I move

Any way I want to move

As though my fingers were feathers

And I could fly to the moon

As though my fingers were feathers

And everywhere I looked was night

And my eyes, my eyes, my eyes

They could see where there was no light

 

 

 

CREATOR DESTROYER

 

From the depth of the forest she will find you

She will drag you up and call you into being

She will lay her naked body on the debris

She will howl until her spirit

Overruns the city

 

She will rise up through the cracks between the pavements

She will buckle train lines, bridges all collapsing

And the towers of the mighty become frail

As she opens up her belly to devour.

 

Come and take over

Creator Destroyer

Come and take over

 

She will pour her molten core upon the runways

She will leave her rusting hulls upon the shoreline

She will swallow up the iron that was stolen

She will vomit up the plastic and the poison

Her oceans will make islands of the mainland

Her tendrils will be wrapped around the cables

And the buried bones of buildings will lie vacant

As she feeds upon the ribcage of forever, forever

 

Come and take over

Creator Destroyer

Come and take over

 

 

 

 

DARK WINGS

 

I’m going down

Down into soil

I’m going down

Dark wings will guide me

 

I know the way

For I have been there

So many times

I cannot count them

 

And though I know

I will return when

The deed is done

When the seed is growing

 

My heart is scared

My limbs are shaking

It seems to cruel

To have to do this

 

Over and over

Over and over

Why can’t I find some secret passage?

To take me there

Without the pain

My midnight wings

Beating in beauty

 

My conscious mind

My core of wisdom

Honours the dark essential journey

But when I’m crying

When I’m crying

It feels so hard

Hard to remember

 

I’m going down

Down into soil

I’m going down

Dark wings will guide me

 

 

FIREHORSE

Life, flowing through time

As fleeting and bright as the dawn

And lately I’m feeling that I’m

A shape shifter wearing this form

 

 

Earth is the ground beneath my feet

Water the blood that’s flowing though me

Air is the sky I run beneath

Fire the will that keeps me running

 

Witness the sky

The seasons that ceaselessly turn

The planets that rise and then fall

The stars that continue to burn

 

The soul at my centre is wild

A horse than can never be tamed

I knew this when I was a child

I’m learning it over again

 

Earth is the ground beneath my feet

Water the blood that’s; flowing through me

Air is the sky I run beneath

Fire the will that keeps me running

Through the storm

Through the storm

Magic is born of Love

 

 

 

EVOLUTION

 

It’s started over

It’s started over

Just when you think it’s finished

It’s started over

Just when you think we’ve got some angle on it

Just when you think we’ve somehow grown with evolution

 

Then all the fighting

Then all the fighting

Highlighting difference when we should be uniting

Just when you think the world was growing wiser

Just when you think that love had offered a solution

 

My heart is crying

My heart is crying

Witnessing visions of the innocent dieing

I can’t believe we’re ever born this vicious

Only a damaged heart could carry such pollution

 

What are we learning?

What are we learning?

The past may disappear but

It keeps returning

Just when you think the battle’s finally over

Just when you think that love had caused a revolution

 

It’s started over

It’s started over

Just when you think it’s finished

It’s started over

Just when you think we’ve got some angle on it

Just when you think we’d somehow grown with evolution

Somehow grown with evolution

 

 

 

 

 

 

THE WINDOW

 

Calling

Something is calling

Through cracks of daylight

Something is calling

If I

If I don’t’ close my eyes

Then I won’t see it

And it won’t call me and question

 

What do you see at the window?

What is light, what is shadow?

What is past, what is yet to be?

What is complete?

And what has all gone wrong?

 

Lately

I don’t like sleeping

I’m waking tired

I’m waking tired

If I

If I don’t close my eyes

Then I won’t see it

And it won’t call me

And question

 

 

THE EARTH IS STILL PART OF THE SKY

 

Call down a ray of light

Into my crying heart

My love, the angels are calling us

Somehow I feel it’s much too soon to part

Lay down your sword

My heart is open

 A tender word

From lover, to lover

Needs to be spoken

 

Call down a ray of light

Into my crying eyes

Distance is just an illusion

I have held on to

For far too long now

I’m letting go

I long to fly

The Earth is still part of the Sky

And this is bigger, so much bigger

Than you or I

 

 

 

ELEMENTAL CHANT

 

Earth Air Fire and Water

 

Earth Air Fire and Water

I stand at the centre and acknowledge each quarter

The Earth is my mother

And I know as Her daughter

That the circle extends to the stars and goes on forever
