I Swear By Myself And My Immortality
When first I tasted the fruit of the trees felt the seeds of life and knowledge burn within me. I swore that day that I would not turn back. When first I tasted the flesh of the kill felt the tang of the blood and the crunch of the bones. I swore that day I would not die. When first I tasted my blood felt the surge and the stir of my own life on my lips. I swore that day to love myself above all.
When first I tasted the light of the moon felt its glow in my womb and its wild tenderness. I swore that day to walk in the night. When first I tasted the love of a god felt the tearing rise of song and fire. I swore on that day to cherish the flesh. When first I tasted the salt of the sea felt my blood become water as the sky fell behind me. I swore that day to descend and to return with wonders.
When first I tasted the love of a child screamed with the joy of the new life and wept for what I had lost and gained, I swore that day to nurture life as I had embraced death before. I swear by three times three times three That these seven moments shall remain my own. And whatever may transpire, no god nor man nor beast may take them from me.
I swear by myself and my immortality.

“And whatever may transpire, no god nor man nor beast may take them from me.” — absolutely wonderful. Moral or immoral. Whatever transpires is your own.
