This is the Dark Temple
Take a moment to think on the Goddess of Time and the North
Nocticula and Kali, Hekate and Morrigu, Ereshkigal
To whom all things go
When I was initiated, twenty years ago, I spoke in trance of defense and battle,
of the holding
of a great black castle against all armies and all odds.
I realized that night that the black keep was my ancestral
hall,
Dubhairegheal
- the "black habitation" -
the ancient home of the O'Caiomh (O'Keefe) clan on the
Blackwater River in County Cork -
and that I had been Bespoken by The Morrigan, as She might have Bespoken my
many-greats-grandmother in time of need.
In the years since then I have time-and-again had cause to call on the
energy of the Dark One;
She has never failed to give me strength and the will to fight.
I will always praise and
honor Her.
