Selqet

Serket (Ancient Egyptian: srqt) is the goddess of healing venomous stings and bites in Egyptian mythology, originally the deification of the scorpion. Her family life is unknown, but she is sometimes credited as the daughter of Neith and Khnum, making her a sister to Sobek and Apep.

Under it all
Under it all
The rise and fall

Under it all
Under it all
The rise and fall

Bitter persimmons all wrapped up in linens
Anointed with oils and laid in the sun by the women

Hidden in riddles the way of the middle
Deciphered in silence unravelled like some kind of sweater

Then wait for the day
That merciful sunset will come take it away
Then wait for the day
That merciful sunset will come take it away

Imagine the dirt beneath the concrete
There are many worlds in which there is no such thing as debt
Searching for shiny strands of tinsel
Silver threads of shredded plastic bags
Broken beads to adorn your nest in the trees
This is what I wish for you
Imagine the molten center

Under it all
Under it all
The rise and fall

Under it all
Under it all
The rise and fall

Threading the needle the sun bearing beetle
Who fashions the sky with her eye: a Celestine vision
Sweet like persimmons laid out by the women
The shroud cast aside by the river now bathe in the water

Then wait for the day
That merciful sunrise will come take you away
Then wait for the day
That merciful sunrise will come take you away

Hecate
Hecate
None one then three
Bear now your torches so that they may see
Hecate
Hecate
Late as they came
Show them the doorway of pleasure and pain
She who createth can also destroy
Birthing and dying
Mistress of the void
Keystone she watcheth
The mother of hounds
Out now the shackles
To which they are bound
Trivia
Trivia
None one then three
Bear now your torches
In light blessed be

Nay I seek not
To disturb the earth beneath me
Not to crack the scrim of morning's frozen dew
Spears of grass
Green plated hairs on her back
This, the earth, a most elegant cemetery
Nourish
Nourish
Laden with the dead
The once was
The ever becoming
All matter returns to dust
All matter returns to dust
