Inside I am a
raging inferno

no one sees it

I fool them with
My undercover
Breath

I could be satiated by
this raining madness

Remember me

the woman who
speaks in
fragments of
the moon

showing mercy
with the tongue of
ancient reeds

Water meeting fire
in my throat

They'd rather we hide
our magic
underneath the stones
thrown at us
to keep us quiet and
away from our power

But we are
everywhere

In the fire you burnt us
to be reborn again
from the soot

In the air you suffocated us
to wax and wane again
with the breath of the moon
within us

In the water you drowned us
to birth bolder
lungs to cradle us again
with her blood

In the earth you buried us to
grow again like seeds from its
precious womb

We have been guilty
when the mind takes over

heed the human debris

but let the ego    go

it does not need
to be taken hostage

OR

Smacked in the face

lend a soulful ear, instead

don't test the waters just yet

see it
for the ego wants to
be seen

then proceed
with extreme caution

until you feel the
depths of your being
anchor you

let go

move in the heart

Then

every action
will be exactly what
is needed

let the cleansing of
time wash over you
and move in peace

And you

No love, for us?

Stabbed in the

back for "becky with

the good hair."

never-ending smirk

wielded to that

bombast head

My feet

not kissed

These parts

You missed

betrayal is as ancient

as a sacred
