When I awoke in the humidity

I realized something of a sacred epiphany

That something unexpected has come my way

Like following a soft impulse on a surreal day



I look at the ground

Then I look around

And I close my eyes

And listen for that sound

For that fuzzy tinged purr

That can only be invoked by her;



I offer my homage to

The Cat Goddess Bast

For so many years

I have looked for her

Among the souls of the lost

To find her here by divine surprise

The supernatural within our mortal rites



And she breaks my fears

Across the grace of her breath

And offers me sanctuary

Amid her starry disk



She can say anything and nothing at all

Yet, I am transfixed and spellbound to her call



She is the Goddess

Of the Sun and the Moon



I adore her charms of speech and text

I am humbled by her beauty and strength

I will follow her through this life and the next

Just to be in her presence for any measure of length



She is of a mystical kinship

She is of a spiritual release

She means everything to me
