A poem I wrote last year while off my meds

I wrote this back when I thought I was a god…

“JNANI”

The Universe opens up to me like a naked lover
And I know her secrets
I am the Dagda, take cover.
I have made love to the earth
I have become a God.
The Universe unzips and unzips

A conceptualization of myself
The cosmic mind, it flips and flips
Alchemical transmutation between itself
Characters in my head
A ghost or spectre dressed in red

I am filled with the vast cold emptiness
of the Universe
I am filled with the ineffable loneliness
of a cosmos
I am the world I am religion and life and science
all in one incarnate melody
Seven celestial spheres, planets, Augoeides circling
in my body.

Oh God, how did I get here?
The Universe opens eternally.
