New Challenge: Epic 80s
This month's challenge features hundreds of fresh prompts from the bodacious decade of the 1980s.
As above so below.
As below, so above.
Vesica Piscis, embryo,
and vast Cosmic Love.
One circle is Source,
two circles - polarity,
The double beating Heart,
form a Third - "Libera me!"
Galaxy collisions,
balanced in Trinity's clover,
Elohimic visions,
the passion of the lover.
The Ainur's 13 harmonious nodes,
universal lattice of creation.
Manwe's breath central blows,
his octahedron, firm foundation.
Varda's sphere, cosmic starlight,
In icosahedrons Ulmo flows,
hidden channels, connecting light,
and.... what else, who knows?
Matter and mountains, rise! -
in the cube of Aulë's structure;
Melkors tetrahedron, first chaos,
integrated in the lattice's debugger.
Dodecahedron of Yavanna and Oromë,
expanding nature, nurturing growth,
Uttering: Wildness, Thou, a Home Be!
Mandos and Vairë restoring in sorrow.
Nienna and Estë, healing and pause,
the nodes of vitality and dreams,
Irmo and Nessa, through doors,
animating cosmic flows in between.
The Maiar transmitting energy, intention,
influence across geometry's blueprint,
and all Platonic solid form the Engine,
the cosmic map: So Life does win!
