Taste This Perfect Offering (Hebrews 10:5)

If I called them by another name
Could I make saviors of these demons?
What is sacrificed, what is gained
This alchemy is for the sake of harmony within
If being a woman in the world is painful enough
Why bring a child into it?
Adjusting will for equilibrium
I choose to use it for creation
Of my own secret weapon
Receptivity is an action, neither passive nor inert
Oh, Kindly Ones, taste the sweet burn 
Of nitroglycerin upon your tongues
As I secrete my inexhaustible sense of self.
