In the time of the warriors, I sat Face painted among the stars Hair strung out like constellations Spread over a bed of universe Illuminated by their belief; By their magic My breath watered down to condensation To morning dew To rain Time constant Love constant Trust constant Like hot steam from their skins evaporating into night skies Washing fear from their eyes I am ever present, like eggs in their ovaries Itching with heat to hatch Pulsating Vibrating The beat hard Like the heaviness of freedom Giving my spirit something real, something to see Like life Like sky Like your mouth and teeth against my neck Take me far and wide, mountain high Like music Like red Like tongue on my lips Giving wet to my hunger and warmth to my movement Climb through me and hug my womb close— Feel my Goddess children sleep Gathering their destinies Before our meeting at their birth. |
