What is it like to be a prophet?
To bleed visions the world calls madness,
to carry the storm in your lungs
and still be asked to speak sweetly.
I ran.
Through temples, through time, through the mouths of sleeping gods.
I ran, hoping to outrun the fire,
only to find my shadow already waiting-
etched into every horizon by hands not my own.
The gods marked me with knowing,
then stripped me of the right to be believed.
They call it a gift.
But it is a wound that sings.
Let the sky tremble at my silence now.
Let the earth remember what it means
to be cursed with truth.
