Mélanie Leblanc 

“Of letters, I am the letter A.”
The Bhagavad Gita, X, 33
 
A (extract from The Initial)
 
Sooner or later the avatar will come
 
A comes late
well after B
you have to go through the entire alphabet
before finding A
the initial of the initiate
into the mysteries of alpha and omega
the alpha and omega in you
omega oh mega loop
be light to touch the mysteries
be very light
no weight thoughts
love to meet you
through the alphabet
the alpha bet will tell you
where to begin
always begin with you
you are the alpha and omega
the solution to the Self
you the athanor
every body an athanor
transmute!
it is time
that in you melt
gold and silver
sun and moon
athanora
a than or
A your gold
A where everything begins and ends
move
A your path
A the door
where to go
to dance with the whole alphabet
to make all the letters dance
begin
by getting in A
 
Anima
breath
connects
interior exterior
animal vegetal
give receive
 
Art
three letters to say
an incarnated
spirituality
Artist
when art is t
all
 
Aum
the word
that contains them all
 
Avadacadavra
I will create
after my own words
