Seven Points to the Star

By Flying indigo express

The deceptively luminous dew light glow
Decends upon the still of the night below
In completing the circle of divine influence
Puts passive pressure to set things to right

The enraged man stands with club raised
The polarity partner cowers in dread fear
Seven knobs upon the handle he feels
Eyes turn upward and mercy appeals

The broken doll cradles the fruit of pain
Whatever love is drowned by guilt and shame
Seven locks of innocent hair caress her skin
A open place for a mothers love can now begin

In an epic clash between Horus and Set
Tear gas flies, and they close the net
Seven tiny sparks of light are in the sky
One loses the will to kill, and the other to die

The seven sisters who were chased away
Have chosen to rejoin us, and to play
When the Pleiades river flows from within
Seven Points to the Star will never end.

    Feeling greatful and a little "not worthy". Thank you!

    I feel like I just read a summoning of some dark, wise creature, like a king of old. Your mentioning of some characters (broken doll, enraged man) leds me to believe that this a story unraveling, that this piece is the prologue. The piece has a marvelous pace, a clear rhyme, but most of all, a mystique, shadowy, hunting atmosphere. Kept me wondering. Last 4 stanzas have an optimistic turn, as well. Brava!

    and it is a summoning...at least a prequel.

    thank you once again for the insightful, and provocative feedback. My perceptions are actually slightly altered a bit, as I used the space you created to gain objectivity.
