    Esezezus is an exploration of the Magic of Language, particularly in verse – both in the form of an exegesis on the subject; and also by example as it compiles over a decade’s worth of esoteric poetry by the author. This ranges from the cosmic and evocational to the personal, in a diversity of styles and forms.

    Extracts of ritual theatre productions in verse are also included, and the work is richly illustrated by the author-artist in multiple media – drawings, oil paintings, and photographs from sculptures and performances.

    As the central essay in this book explores especially the vibrational aspects of poetic language – ie when spoken or sung rather than only written – it comes with an album (CD & streaming code) of magical music by the author and collaborators, wherein many of the verses in the book are orated or sung accompanied by a wide range of musical accompaniment from neoclassical to experimental electronica.

    Esezezus is a new word referring to the bliss of ‘Tongues’ as both physical vessels of language and languages themselves. As the Word (made flesh) ‘Language’ itself comes from French Langue meaning Tongue (the organ) they are really one, and can only thus be differentiated or split by speaking/act- ing with Forked Tongue (dividing the concept and its means).

about

The Volva were female seers in the Nordic traditions. Voluspa is the most renowned of them, as she pronounced a prominent section of the Eddas.
There is a theory that the Delphic Oracle received her phrophetic trance not just from nasal imbibement from the intoxiating fumes arising from the crack in the earth below, but also from vaginal fumigation, thus her perch on the tripod. Compare the High Seat of prophecy in Norse traditions.
This is intended as a chant for oracular workings, uttered rhythmically and hypnotically -began as a whisper and rising with the energies- by other participants to help inspire the Seeress’ trance

lyrics

Volva Voluspa hearken
Volva Voluspa whisper
Volva Voluspa darken
The Gate of the wait for the boat with your shadow

Volva Voluspa hear
Volva Voluspa come hither
Volva Voluspa veer
Left to the weft of the weave ‘neath the mounds in the meadow

Volva Voluspa reveal
Volva Voluspa vibrate
Volva Voluspa revel
Duress level to the tunnel of your ingress:

Volva Vulva reveal
Vipers wending unseal blisss
Volpa Vixen vindicate
Hymen sundered by spirits in smoke; Utterance throated Uterus utterance indicate
Yoni prophecy
