OSIRIS is the 16,000 line epic journey of the sacred Ankh on its heroic wanderings through the cosmos on a sacred quest for the one who would summon awake the cosmic Ka, the mystic soul of the great creative universe. Journeying from the creation of the world the sacred Ankh reaches the heart the mythic coming of Osiris lord of the river Nile, dramatizes lord Osiris’ rending agon, his death and the dolorous lament by his wife Isis of the sorrows and by her potent power of the mystic word summons the soul of slain Osiris to the resurrection amidst universal rejoicing. The journey of the sacred Ankh tracks the lyrical joy of Isis at the coming of Osiris of the Nile, her reluctant parting from Osiris when the lord of life must carry the flame of wisdom gifted by the gods to all humankind, queen Isis’ foreboding welcome of the lord Osiris returned from his world-wide quest, queen Isis’ dolorous lament for slain Osiris her mystic summoning of the soul of slain Osiris descended unto the dread realms of fearsome Duat of the dead to Queen Isis’ triumphant mystic song of the return of Osiris reborn. OSIRIS is the dolorous lament for slain Osiris in the journey of the Ankh. OSIRIS is also the chant-song of affirmation at the death-rebirth of eternal Osiris lord of dead, lord of life. The gnosis-like knowledge which the Ankh carries from the beginning of time, the creation of the world, the coming of Osiris lord of life, the dolorous death-agon of betrayed Osiris, the return of Osiris reborn and the universal rejoicing of all the gods in their gratitude to queen Isis of the mystic word potent enough to summon the death from the abyss of dread Duat – this is heart of the meaning of the sacred Ankh on the sweeping epic of this vast cosmic journey.
OSIRIS is an archetypal journey of deepest sorrow and soaring affirmation and universal rejoicing. The journey of the Ankh throughout time from the very beginnings at the creation of the world to the coming of the gods and the triumph of Osiris over death and the splendor of queen Isis’ song of joy at the resurrection of her slain lord. It is a journey deepest despair and soaring affirmation, a song of the deepest most broken dread in Queen Isis’ dolorous lament to the splendor of the great goddess’ potent words, the mystic awe-inspiring words summoning, awakening slain Osiris’ resurrection.
In the mythic journey of the Ankh through the reign of every pharaoh on its universal quest for its lost mystic self, the poem OSIRIS reenacts the lost mystic secret which was always veiled at the core of the reign of each of the pharaohs. OSIRIS is the Ankh dramatically summoning to life the sacred hieroglyphs, the Ankh chronicling the soaring of the columns, the quick-stepping battle array of the armies of pharaoh, the eye-witnessing of the rising of the monumental pyramids, the epic of world-conquest and war to the chanting of the solemn rites of the inner journey mirrored in the coffin scrolls and wall carvings of that funerary drama of the soul on its cosmic journey which punctuate the poem throughout the soaring quest of the Ankh in these lines.
