Victory

by Soror Akana on December 15th, 2007 e.v. An CIV

I am who Thou
shalt never know;
I have written the sound
of angels on the page of history,
and exorcised all fear, all pity;
and stepped across the centuries.

I who am Thou, rejoice:
All ye tremble, beware my voice,
O, stars, ye know not the fire, the force!
I who am Thou
be wicked and proud,
subtle, devious, and loud!

I have dissolved the last
rent the veils, shattered the glass;
victorious, laughing, I dare to dance!
I who am Thou
shalt never bow;
see me burst forth with a vengeance from the tower!
A battle fought and won,

O, Thou art ever become;
A Conqueror yielding to none.

In this is the secret, in this is the how!
