The primordial tally the gods etched

Into the first stone tablet

The rhythm that taught the cosmos

How to awaken

A

C

The alphabet of creation

Three runes struck from the spine

Of an ancient star

Still humming with unfinished prophecy

Numbers are the bones of order

Letters are the breath of becoming

Where they cross a doorway opens

A hinge of light

A hinge of shadow

And the world remembers

Its earliest name

In that meeting of count and chant

Of measure and myth

Something stirs

The old machinery of fate

The quiet engine of destiny

Turning once more
