A description of self from the internal view
Brings to mind rainbows and diversity of hue
Red kindles the dances of fires raging in the soul
Orange reflects warmth and a blissful afterglow
Yellow for Dandelions and others oft' maligned
Green is for mother Earth hosting lives intertwined
Blue captures mood and color embedded in these eyes
Violet says you, too, may be a king in disguise
Together as one greatest strength is implied
Accepting of all and enveloped in Pride
A being transcending in universal bond
With the modern-day Rainbow and love that's beyond.

Masquerade Party
At six feet seven inches tall and approximately two hundred fifty pounds, Samael presented an imposing figure when he walked into a room. His physical stature may be impressive, but his demeanor is the opposite. The shy, some might say, reclusive personality that he developed as a young boy followed him into manhood. His favorite job was crunching numbers in a quiet one man back office of a fiduciary firm. He was always polite, greeting his fellow workers with a “good morning” or “good afternoon” as he walked to the back of the office where his little hideaway was located, but never tried to engage in conversations.
