The Queen of the Night
rules my subconscious,
orchestrates my dreaming,
allows what is necessary
    to rise to the surface,
holds in the wings
    what I'm yet unable to handle.

I have no choice
but to trust her;
she is God's emissary,
the high priestess
of my Holy of Holies.

She is Sophia,
and I her faithful servant.
