The Odo
Lady Azure, Baroness of the North Pole
Feel the ebb and flow
Look upon the waters see it glisten below
Notice the shimmer of the wave caps, sparkling as they go
Where once was darkness look around you, see how they glow
Those who walk beside you in the waters flow
Stand yourself and walk the waters of the lake called ODO.
Searles O'Dubhain
This is another lovely expression of images. I think that those who
have never seen the sparkle will miss the message entirely however.
The Sun on the water is a powerful gateway while the ebb and flow are
felt more so than seen by most. This time of year in tribal societies,
the pull is great. How much more is it felt in the northern latitudes
than those of the south?
Most do not understand that we walk on the waters of ODO all the time.
How could it be otherwise? This is why shrines to the ancestors are
located in the heart of the villages rather than out in the
surrounding darkness. They are a well , an ebb and a flow, a source of
light in darkness and even a song or a dance into life again.
Those who have not heard the song will also not hear this one, nor
will there limitations see beyond themselves. It's often difficult to
get outside of one's boundaries and then return to express the journey
in terms that cause a resonance in others.
Your poem here does a beautiful job of capturing the experience for
all.

Nice. Reminds of the "Great Link" from Star Trek DS9, episode
_The Search_ and what shape-shifter Odo experienced with it.

Not one of my favorite episodes, but still good.

The ODO I was thinking about is a secret tribal way of honoring one's
ancestors.

Well, that's the object of poetry, is it not? To call up different
images in the mind of the reader?

No, not entirely .

Yep!!!!!!!!!!
But then that is what pisses them off.
I am not talking to them, so they can not see what I mean!!!!

Right Now, it is the "FEAST OF THE FROST HOAR'S"
The Time of the Squeezing of the Water Xtls which releases the Lights and
the North Winds.

Yes it is, but the Orthodoxy couldn't Sell Secrets, Bound to their words
they must follow inside the lines.
Up, Down, Heaven, Hell, stiff necked SOB's would break their necks looking
to the side to see outside the lines.

Odo is the Teachings of the "Shape Shifters".
Ray Bradbury used it for his story.
Odo is not the Person, Odo is the Lake he is Part of
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lady Azure, Baroness of the North Pole
ODO I mean is The Lake, which is "The Energy of All Existence".
All are part of it, all return to it, all are reborn of it, the Odo, the
Pool or Lake which is the "Energy of Life's Forces".
Lady Azure, Baroness of the North Pole
Sorta which is why Words of a Poet, are "Worth a Tinkers Damn"!
Mahayana the Universal Religion, "Understands All", it doesn't Claim One
Way at the Point of a Sword.

The toughest part is stepping from it on cold hard ground.
There is pain but there is no fear, as return is guaranteed.
I wonder how many more times I will decide to leave again.
Lady Azure, Baroness of the North Pole
According to the legends, I've done it a thousand times.

- and still not bored yet, ey? :)
Must be quite a piece of work to live in the know.
Lady Azure, Baroness of the North Pole
Total Pain.
Kinda like a movie I watched last night "Mother of Tears".
Had a Slogan:
"What You See is Not Real, What You Can Not See is the Truth"!!!!
How True, How True!
Mor was a Badb, One of the "Great Mothers". the Muses, the 3 Fates. . . . .
. . . . .
Trine a D Tri
Cairbre's, are the Foo Dogs or "RED, Hounds of Hel"!
Anyway.
The Movie was based on Romanesque Lies about my Family.
The Reason she is "The Mother of Tears" is Nemesis collects them from you
weeping children to anoint and Polish their Armor so the "White Knight" can
Defeat the Dragon.
Something the Church "DAMN WELL FEARS",
KARMIC RETRIBUTION!!!!!!
"Burn the Witches",
"Stone the Fairies",
"Knowledge is Evil",
"Suffer the Little Children to Cum"
"Kill the Descendants, these Fallen Angels Must be Stopped",
Priests Dripping with Wealth before their Starving People,
Wielding Idolatry and Blasphemy, to but inflict Chaos for the Emperor.
Rome's Dead, Fuck the Emperor, there is a GUARANTEE where I live, that I
have a right to Separation of CHURCH AND STATE.
It was a Guarantee made under the Supervision of George Washington, who had
to come out of Retirement to settle the Dispute, to MY FAMILY.
The Spirit of the White Pines or Firs is still well Remembered in the United
States.
With out us nasty Gaelic's there would have been no Shays' or Whiskey
Rebellion, which resulted in the "BILL OF RIGHTS"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nemesis wiped the tears from my face and ripped my soul apart telling me her
story, The Rape of the Oracle of Delphi and the Origins of the Strange
Orange Fire, why the Tribe chose a Covenant of the Bris in Promise to Her,
and a Reverse Jesus Type, the Dyke is the God, Man forced his Sin's Upon.
