Ring Of Humming Stones

While dancing inside ring of humming stones
that refract sunlight into rainbow beams,
Shimut transforms to eagle with broad wings
when he twirls wand with sharpened diamond tip
to drive fierce wolves into the wilderness
as guard protecting souls in space of hope.

Crowned with gold halo ring of jeweled light,
Shimut stands guard on ten-foot ziggurat,
protecting people in space of his strength
who dwell safe inside ring of humming stones,
eyes watching how they act through self-control
to maintain rich commerce of give and take.

When Manzat, Lady of the City Doors,
who makes our city flourish with strict rules,
assumes seat of judgment on ziggurat
of far-watch, Shimut guards her soul from harm,
enforcing verdicts of her sentences
when she decrees how people should behave.

Though star-eyed daughter of their fertile love,
Tiranna, born from lightning flash of faith,
feels overwhelmed by duties of her state
as daughter of the Rainbow Queen of Truth,
she dances laughing in the sudden rain,
so she lights up the ring of humming stones.

Descended from star goddess of the hills,
I wake from dream of her attentive life
eight thousand years since she gave birth to me,
and taught me how to read future events
in flashing constellations of the sky
where Shimut guards Manzat with loyal love.

While bright spirits of Shimut and Manzat
vibrate in visions of my flashing brain,
I ponder how to manage flow of love
that surges through my body every hour
with ache of wisdom to translate weird song
of ocean waves to words humans can hear.

Their spirits animate my body now
with tense concern of voiceless prophecy
to preach salvation with attentive zeal,
achieved through dance in ring of humming stones,
to billion souls of hungry urgency
who gather to worship in halls of faith.

Attentive focus of Shimut, to guard
good citizens of Earth with ardent faith,
still motivates my quest to organize
chaotic passions of the human tribe
encamped in nations fighting to survive
as ghosts who dance in ring of humming stones.

Orpheus gazes with awe at carving of Shimut and Manzat with their daughter Tiranna on large black stone that stands alone beside the ancient river bed.
