He stands and beckons from the heat`s waves
Come out of the shadows, forget the shade
Step into the Sun, son where history`s made
get up off your seat
and into the heat
where all the good head games are played
Now we have teeth but we don`t bite, much
do most our chewing on words and such
take your time
read `tween the lines
try writing,you may have the touch
His serpents smile and twist found his staff
he`s giving me chills each time he laughs
something`s not right
something just out of sight
round the next bend in the path
I stare at his sandals, they appear to have wings
he chuckles and says, oh these old things
a gift from a God
and welcome to Hod
you`ll be amazed at the lessons it brings
You can see this is the mental realm
words are our sea,Truth stands at the helm
We keep falsehood at bay
the stars guide our way
try not to become overwhelmed
I am messenger, trickster and mage
Scribe, illusionist and sage
all this and more
as we step through the door
to your world`s coming of age
The pen is mighty and so is the sword
a kingdom`s survival depends on it`s words
fear is the deceiver
your mind is the lever
that pries till your truth can be heard
Orchids and lavender thrive in this heat
Opals and Sapphires under your feet
Peyote for visions
Agate`s balanced decisions
Hod`s a place where many worlds meet
Try to keep up now,it`s all in the mind
focus,discern what you`re hoping to find
it`s all in the learning
the twisting and turning
move quickly or be left behind
I am the Quicksilver, metal that flows
there`s really no telling which way I`ll go
so take a deep breath
there`s no time to rest
rest when you think clearly and know
