RIP Iggy Rose: 1947-2017


From Quetesh to Bastet
Quetesh,
Majestic.
Iggy the Eskimo,
Girl of space.
Often very alone,
But always a friend.
Star fallen from the black sky:
Solar, solitary, solstice, soloist.
Pale blue crystal dawn, pearl wine dusk.
A mauve Venus, disrobed on
the silk orange milky way.
Magical music, medieval Median, magnetic:
Even in worlds where love
is impossible.
Transcended, transparent, translucent, transitory:
Life together
unconditionally and forever.
And that black cat caressing him with a glance, the night.
The
malefic vision of Lucifer Sam.
