Possession
by heartsong7 in Homer's Homilies

She paused atop the Pharaoh’s pyramid,
imagining his world of long ago.
While gazing on the desert-scape below,
she wondered if its shifting sands still hid
the secrets of another age, and did
the gods of Pharaohs linger in the glow
of gold-encased sarcophagi. Who’d know
if kings could live again should gods so bid?

She trembles when her neck-hair stands on end
and shivers as a sudden icy wind
stirs-- swirling at her feet; her soul goes cold.

A flush of fear engulfs, then disappears.
With mysteries entrenched five thousand years
revealed in her, she’s welcomed to the fold.
