Resh
The Head / The Turn
Odie O'Dool hath been a fool, soaked in drool he dreamt of jewels
But now the shack felt strange, undone — the floor was soft, the light was one
He walked in circles, slow and low — unsure of where his soul should go
No cries to chase, no staff to lift — no mirror tricks or golden gift
He bowed his head, then bent his spine — and let his brow align with time
The earth was warm beneath his face — a simple, sacred, turning place
The O returned with gentle hum — not first or last, just wise and dumb
It did not rise, it did not roll — it only sat and made him whole
Ohm appeared but did not speak — he only watched with gaze unique
And in that look, Odie could see — the start of what was meant to be
He saw Aleph in forested grace — Bet in the hearth, Gimel in chase
He saw the doors and mirrored walls — the rising light, the hidden falls
He saw the breath of Hei unfold — and Samekh's loop in Mem's deep hold
He felt the sword, the seed, the well — the circling truths he couldn't tell
But all of them curved back to this — the quiet room, the turning kiss
Resh did not shout, it only bent — and showed the road was never spent
To start again is not to lose — but simply to reshape the fuse
He lifted slow, without a crown — no need for up, no shame in down
He stood like roots that learned to dance — both deep in dirt and caught in chance
The O now hovered near his chest — and whispered "turn, but turn to rest"
He faced the door, no need to flee — he'd seen enough to walk and be
For Resh had drawn the sacred curve — and Odie walked it, word by word
