Sativa - A Rose By No Other Name

by Frank Andrick

"Sativa" the artwork is by Armando Cid, a well known chicano.latina artist, a member of 'The Royal Chicano Air Force' who no longer walks this earth. he was inspired by finding my poem on-line, as you san see he 'sampled' the text, and created the artwork. we had never met before until he showed me the finished work. of course it needs to be turned around long wise. it has been exhibited at a number of shows.

Sativa - A Rose By No Other Name

Mystikal, Mysterious, and Mortal.

Miss Rose I presume??

A Rose by no other name.

aaah Sativa,

A thousand stories, bedside tales, she-her-azade

One and a million secret places

Zero the void, come into being

The void I sink into

When I sync into U

U the unknown - night bloom

What will and can be - up to you and me

The shapeless breathes form

The wet whorl of an ear echoes and inspires

the fire down below.

We are none - we are one

aaah Sativa,

All the animals are here

All the angels too - Tutti

Possibilities are endless

In the infinite universe of verses

Sum surrounded in flaming blue

49 petals has the ancient mystic rose

Mouth flowers- - La Rose du Monde

Seeking the Rose of the world

Whose touch stirs the snake

Awakens the Rose of imagination.

Searing sex into vision - Seering visions into sex

The High Priestess lowers the veil

RoseCross and flame

Sight and smell intoxicate

Phases of the flowering, phases of the moon

Beauty has a new name

You

The Rose By No Other Name.
