The Feather Goddess 
                     with her patriarchal warrior guard 
          
arrogantly watching
              a fire dance during which she is
consumed
     
by the imagined flames 
                                and swirled up 
                       into the cosmos
beyond pain or passion
                 beyond abject failure or
disappointment
     
beyond delusion or uncertainty
                                      beyond
the chains of
physicality to an exalted realm 
                            of lasting
spiritual peace
