Jackals

Out in wilderness I must go
Banished to the realm of hyenas and jackals
A life time in heart of the desert
Enprisoned with Nimrod and Azasael

Forty years of fasting, contemplation and despair
Transfigurational theophany emerged
At the foot of Mount Horeb, a mystery was seen

The manifestation of the hypostatic union
Rejection of Nestorianism
Overthrowing the dogma of Eutychianism
O Theotokos!

Portal of the divine redemption
Gateway to soteriological recapitulation
Theotokos - the unburnt bush
Indwelling the fire that consumes

Light of lights cast blackness on my eyes
Astonished by the wonder, ravished by the sight
As the flames rises high, no ashes
Devouring inferno had no might

The celestial dominion unveiled
Behold the initiation of the theoanderic mystery

Thy voice like thunder, as the roar of the king of beasts
O Malak Jahve!
I have surely seen the affliction of my people
I have heard their cry by reason of their taskmasters
For I know their sorrows
I have come down to deliver them
Out of the hand of the Egyptians

O Theotokos, Semper Virgo! Mater Dei!
The unburnt bush - revealing the doctrine of perichoresis
