Quis ut Deus? (Poetry)



Quis ut Deus?

Goddess of foundry, form and
forge.
Fingers fluid over
flame.
Fire flexes
silver.

Mistress, mistress of metal.
The shapeless becomes
shape.
Mistress, mistress of metal.
Out of nothing,
beauty comes.

Hammer swings.
Pounding, pounding
of metal.
Fire burns.
Forms flex, fuming
in flame.
Out of nothing,
boons are born.

Mistress, mistress of metal.
Goddess of foundry, form and
forge.
Fingers sprout
treasures.
Eyes mirror ancient
light.
