25-word entry (written first):
How many phases of yourself have you swallowed into darkness,

100-word entry:
How many phases of yourself have you swallowed into darkness,
consuming the light of creation reflected in luminous smiles?
Is your mutable shadow satiated by your constant transformation?
A growing goddess is always hungry.
Who am I to deny my birthright of expansion?
Who is anyone to try
when my domain is the infinite sky?
And who the hell is Father Time?
I am the Mother Who Births the Seasons.
I am the Woman Who Commands the Tides.
My reach, my touch
sways the sea beneath your skin.
When you need to remember power,
look in my mirror.
Look within.
