The Atlas moth has two wings
The wings mimic two cobras
Guarding her from becoming prey
To me, the cobras represent a spirit
A being far beyond our dimension
The Atlas moth is a daughter
Her mother is a celestial being
I’ve sought her throughout every lifetime
Each time I failed to see
All along I had been breathing her air
Drinking her water
The same way the Atlas moth did
Both of us beloved by her abundance
Under her wings of love
She’s a designer
She’s a creator
To us, she’d be god
Thoughts about myself diminish with thoughts of her sea
Her birth womb
Where she birthed life
Where she birthed death
Where she birthed fate
As I live and breathe
I see
In the highest dimension there is a waterfall
There are rocks
There are trees
There, hangs a swing
On that swing there is a pregnant woman
She eats raspberries
She combs her hair
Inside her belly exists our universe
Where the atlas moth lives
Where I live
Both a part of nature
The pregnant woman has two wings
The wings mimic two cobras
Guarding her from becoming prey
Guarding the Atlas moth
Guarding me
I now know her
Just like she’s always knows me
She knows everything
She is us
We are her
She is the Atlas moth
The Atlas moth is me
I am the Atlas moth.
