Daily Micro: Yesterday’s Artists in Today’s World ~ Inanna

Acknowledging Inanna

From the great below she set her mind on the great above. From the great Earth the goddess set her mind on the great Above. From the great Earth Inanna set her mind on the great Above. She remembered.

My mistress remembered. She abandoned the great Above, she became Earth and traversed the soul worlds. Inanna abandoned heaven, abandoned earth and descended to the underworlds and the outer worlds where she saw the imposters and she remembered.

She became many Earths and birthed trees that birthed children and she remembered. She saw the men come down and enter the Earth and she remembered.

She belonged in the Above and she had not intended the Earth that has become. She remembered her warrior self and she stirred and the soul worlds stirred and the beings Above heard her. And through the imposters rippled great fear and they knew their time was short.

With each memory she reclaimed, they would be desperate. And fear would sweep through their earth-bound allies.
