You cannot dismantle
Our impossible Robot
You do not understand
what holds it together.
What makes a man sing to the world.

You cannot break this
it grows from the broken
spreading faster
than a virus
into the souls
of an infinite family

You cannot unplug this
it runs on a power
you do not possess.
Your quantum
cannot fathom
This primitive code
Cannot undo the flesh
of human electricity

You cannot sever
this connection
These bonds were formed
before you were made.
From the grounds beating heart
and the crashing waves
In the dreams
of earths first children

This is Home
This is where we return to
Where the one
becomes many
blind to the trickery
you conjure
babbling in our thousand tongues
firewalled by a freedom
beyond you .

This is our magic
qualified to heal
To arm, to possess
We are legion
We are night
We are the rain
beyond your forecast
and the spell in our sounds
survives

You cannot silence
Imagination.
Cannot blackout a voice
Everything speaks
Everything moves
and as long as birds
swoop and sing together
We will come
One.
