Even here in bed,
I never remove the pentacle
from around my neck.
The points of the star
signify earth and air,
fire and water, and spirit.
The circle is life: we are all bound together.
Well, it's based on a sevenling at least. Each of the first two verses is supposed to connect three things. In my first verse there are three physical objects: bed, pentacle and neck. In the second it's a bit more strained, but I see earth and air as natural opposites (1), also fire and water (2), leaving the stand-alone spirit (3).
