The Planets: Quicksilver of Mercury

Quicksilver- flash of inspiration
messenger of time's verbosity

Inhale- take it all in
reform, rename- process
Exhale- breathe it out to the world in
torrents or gentle breeze

Gather all the pearls that lay strewn
unloosed from the thread of their silent networking
some of great worth-
others hollow forms - promises of emptiness

Emissaries of thought and mind
moving into the spotlight
or hiding in the corners and alleys of deceit

And when the perfect expression is called upon
the balance of scales weigh the measure
of safe guarding those seeds of thought within
or casting them upon the sea of humanity
swiftly-sharply- like fishermen's nets hungry to be filled

With pregnant pause of mind
those caught within the webbing of nets are freed
and returned back to their Source
either with the cadent blow of Death or
the compassion of release

Gather all in
Breathe a sigh of release
and
Exhale profoundly
