The Pentagram poem – Aleister Crowley poems | Poetry Monster

A poem by Alistar Crowley (1875-1947)

[Dedicated to George Raffalovich]

In the Years of the Primal Course, in the dawn of terrestrial

birth,

Man mastered the mammoth and horse, and Man was the

Lord of the Earth.

He made him an hollow skin from the heart of an holy tree,

He compassed the earth therien, and Man was the Lord of

the Sea.

He controlled the vigour of steam, he harnessed the light-

ning for hire;

He drove the celestial team, and man was the Lord of the

Fire.

Deep-mouthed from their thrones deep-seated, the choirs

of the æeons declare

The last of the demons defeated, for Man is the Lord of

the Air.

Arise, O Man, in thy strength! the kingdom is thine to

inherit,

Till the high gods witness at lenght that Man is the Lord

of his spirit.
