collapse

naked truths

exposed and awake


so long

hiding and shaming

for honor's great ache


edges, rise

divine Black feminine, rise

queer tongues, rise


:


rise, beloved, rise


:


power, like serpents of pain

control, like demons in shadows

greed, gutting our Earth


Babylon's great lie

temples must crumble

enough with false ways


:


rise, beloved, rise


:


names of all gods

rituals for all beings

universal hum


deep time, shake us

honest time, break us

love, only love


:


rise, beloved, rise
