I like this because it does sound - evocative. I'm a little confused about what it is invoking, however, and by labels like the sisters of the dawn and "blood letters"?. It sounds cool, but I don't quite grasp it. The final (muses) also confuses me. I still like it though. I may chant it tonight and see what happens.

If this is Via Negativa, it's pretty good. If it isn't, I don't know what you mean.

Suppose

you relook at this and do a hearty rewrite

There is catharsis in pain

gnosis in joy

grabber, but what are you doing? Is it supposed to be

There is catharsis in pain, (comma?)

gnosis in joy

or is the line supposed to mean

There is catharsis in pain and gnosis in the joy (of the catharsis)

toss this:

Feel their ache in

the cornerstone of your soul.

this is a dead kitten

reason I say these things, it is worthy of rewriting
