Deities
I felt my heart freeze
and fell to my knees
Standing before me
as tall as the trees
Guardian of fates,
of the Underworld's gates
A grant to my wish,
the God Anubis
He reached down and took my hand
Beckoning me to stand
Deep in his throat
a distant thunder
He was laughing
at my wonder
My desire was only
half fulfilled yet
I looked around for
my Goddess Bastet.
