The Schmooze
POEM: ‘Zohar’
In the Shining
Book it says
Moses existed
before he existed
at first above
in the spirit world
and then among us
like a light
*
child of the Blessed Holy One
who is a man of war
and child of the Blessed Holy One
the glamorous moon
divine mother and lover, that had to be hidden
coupling with him
in both worlds
*
what did you see, Moses my teacher
in your descent from there
helpless as you were
like us then
were there animals
on the cave walls
did you see the lions
did you see the calf
this, this — a light
