Ishtar
I Am Ishtar, Love Tara,
Goddess voluptuous.
My moon rabbit hatches
the egg of spring!
Inanna (goddess grandmother)
Crescent Journeyer,
Venus, Morning Star
that falls and shines again,
I give hope beyond death.
Sun rising in the East,
Eos the dawn, Eostara,
(estrus and estrogen,
hysteria and hysterectomy)
Hester, Esther, Ashley,
I Am Easter, bringing renewal,
Hestia, inner flame of authenticity.
I Am Asherah,
deathless Tree of Life.
Phoenix,
Let Me rise from ashes
once again within you.
Let Me flow like sweet sap.
Let this dead crucifix
of man-made pain and fear
you call your world
bloom! (Ashe.)
