Page 50 - GALIET THE HOLY WORD: Blake IV++
P. 50

3⁄4 the only, the sole one made of pure light, pure sound, the pure Word, vibrating, creating sounds as angelic as children’s choirs. Light Eternal: music. Only in Lady Faith’s time, in Poetry’s time, neither in my present, nor my past, nor my future, but in Her time, in Her space, the Poet comes to hear the dulcet Word sublime, Crystalline Creatrix, most beauteous, its song of wind, of fire, mellifluous, immortal, calling, murmuring, and expanding and being expanded, beckoning her like the Starry Rose 3⁄4 Word Eternal. Maternal. And she must never mistrust her, Lady Faith, her Muse Eternal 3⁄4 Immortal. If Orpheus loses faith, he, too, forever loses himself in losing Eurydice, his beloved Muse and ever beauty eternal. Once lost, he perishes, and having perished, all of nature loses, and all of life loses her Poiesis: Eden, the poetic meaning of existence: The Song, the Word Holy and the Holy Word, decipherer of the starry soul: 3⁄4 Soul Star.
The Romanticism of Light. As the child disappears, the living waters, its purity, its transparence, its holiness, is stained with the Poet’s newfound joy: The Holy Word, the Lamb’s Song. The Piper’s joyous song, The Holy Word, stains all the waters, all the rivers, all the seas, every pond, every stream, and in so doing, he marks the world- spirit, his own spirit: the luminescent soul waters: mirror
