thoughts from the Esbat of 8/7/98
by Azure
ONE
teaches me to battle
cuts me to the core
invokes my warrior spirit
worships me more
THE OTHER
keeps my deepest secrets
is warm and gentle and kind
comforts my wounded child
appreciates my mind
ONE
takes all that I offer
gives only what he must
is constantly demanding
causes me distrust
THE OTHER
shares all that he has
gives from the heart
always finds some time for me
respects our need to often be apart
ONE
demands my adoration
makes decisions for me
lurks in the shadows
pretends not to see
THE OTHER
deserves my adoration
shares his wisdom and light
respects our differences
has empathic sight
ONE
thrives on drama
is fluff and flame and fire
to impress and possess
is his main desire
THE OTHER
speaks softly, then listens
believes in what he shares
brings joy to the circle
we know that he cares
they are light, they
are darkness
I call them both brother
that is why it is so difficult
to give up One for The Other
