She is cold as ice, fierce as fire. She leaves her locks undone, swaying like a cyclone depicting her wilderness. She flaunts her nakedness symbolising her detachment from every possible materialism. Her flesh painted the pitch black darkest, lips rudied with blood. She coats her skin with ashes from the burning pyre. When calm, she is the still water of the holy Ganges and the silence before the hurricane and when she walks, the earth sways. She grooms herself with those devil's limbs weaving a garland of their beheaded skulls. How she charges in fury stepping her lord under those red feet, then sticking her tongue out bringing her back from the trance. Oh how holy is the deity, the creator, the destroyer, the stillness, the ultimate chaos, She is the very pain, the legit pleasure. She has no origin nor end yet being the aadi and the ant. She is the guru of Tantra, the preacher of Mantra. She is the sanity of the Brahman, the madness of the insane. She is the Maya, the illusion that holds the world. She is the very absolute. She is the mother. She be the Kaal, she be Kaalikaa..
