Dedication One: Pharoh, Father, Frater, Friend
I write to you, Hariesis, My Lord
Whose left and right eyes burn as moon and sun,
Both birth and death resplendent in accord.
I am your subject, brother, friend and son.
You great majestic hawk up in the sky,
Your volatile and healing sight found me,
And as Harmerty, Ho-er of two eyes
Your deep gaze met my own and set me free.
You came to me in all your grace and might
An emperor to make my kingdom move
Away from weakened wrong to potent right,
From being a boy with trivia to prove.
Thus blessed by Pharoh, Father, Frater, Friend,
My days of insecurity now end.
