In Illo Tempore* Labyrinth passages of time
built into the soul, molded
by the hands of experience
Dark night ghosts that haunt the
existence in cryptic messages
of ages past
Dancing spirits from the full
and ripe flame warmed the
minds with primordial wisdom
Chasms of light penetrated the
eons and brought it forward
past the now.
A star burst on the discovery
of human kind and set from
dust the naked self showed its
soul in the labyrinthCopyright

In illo tempore: Latin, "at that time,"
"that time outside our own reckoning,"
"the time of myth"
"The myth, then, is the history of what took place in illo tempore, the recital
of what the gods or the semidivine beings did at the beginning of time. ...
." Mircea Eliade
