Blind Horus

 

Grady McMurtry

 

19 February 1972

 

 

Mother Medusa of the solar wind

Lion paw and lambent thigh

Love-lightning playing in your hair

Has blinded me, and I am thine.

 

Mother Medusa, lion cubs

Come tumbling through your amber dream.

I hear your purr with throat of iron

And your growl in the slap of thunder.
