Fragment . 001Azalune

Sung at the turning of every cycle

The Litany

, in seven verses ,

I

We are not the moon, but the listening for it.

II

What is silver was once water; what is water was once song.

III

The candle is older than the flame it bears.

IV

There is a thread between us , do not pull, only follow.

V

Of the seven moons, six are remembered. The seventh remembers us.

VI

Speak only what the silence has already said.

VII

When the cycle closes, do not weep. Begin again.
