abrasax

abrasax!

oh, sophia! sophia! searching for sophia!

secret desire loves wisdom,

bending starlight around the moon,

bending sunlight around the demon,

question the first of 365 archons,

climb the stairs of 365 spheres,

combine all opposites in abrasax.

oh, sophia! sophia! searching for sophia!

the one that came before the beginning,

where positive equals the negative,

called the light, called the dark,

called the numbers, called the nothingness,

worshipped it, berated it,

made love to it and hated it.

called it my inamorata, called it abrasax!

mankind on the galactic cross begotten.

called it sophia, then lost and forgotten.
