Once the armor wears

The pieces tear

The strips of me fold away

The limits I choose

Become the beacons of my truth

The prowess of the settings I choose

Every barrier that’s seen

Gives an option to leave

Or love it back into its bones

The guards that I sport

Are protecting the coursing blood within my veins

These healing waters

May they pump through my blood

And replenish the soil with which I roam

For this earth may reveal

Many seeds planted within its wheel

And the tides are forever turning

Each and every spark become alight

Casting a light for the net to feel it’s prayers

Being lifted

From the ashes

From tears to creation

From walls and separation

To triumphant celebration

As we band together as one

Truth versus power

An age old tale

Which will now hold it’s repetitive glare.

The clocks may now shift, an endless infinite turn

I call upon my truth to reveal itself.

I surrender my power,

I will not use coercion

I will not use snakes by my side

I will hold just my heart in my hands and water in my eyes

And hold faith that this will guide my way

I know what lies within, I need no one to see in

To show me the strength of my will.

I am trembling with love

It pours off of my thumbs, and I will foster this each and every day

With nourishment that fills me,

And courage that fulfills me,

I will go hand in hand with my love

From left and from right

From giving and taking, I give from my everlasting light

Both hands I will use,

To shift each and every screw in this vestibule,

that has become stagnant with rust

I clean to reveal

The colors of the invisible flame

The one that encompasses all hues

The peace maker

The love maker, can this settle violence once and for all?

What is the need?

Fight to the death

Bleed to show me your power?

If it is within us, we may mirror to others just who they are as they are

No entering needed no violence takes place

Just showing a path to the deepest of space

Where love holds us all

Just waiting for the call

To blast us into loving harmony

Each heart bounding alive

Gleaming, singing, dancing, forgiveness ringing from it’s lips

The ripple felt far deep and wide

For as we all say

To love every day

This net shall grow and shall grow

Until all lay upon it, whether they know it or want it

And even the furthest will feel abandoned no more.

Absolutely not a soul is alone

This is the truth my dear

The closest I have to give you

Is silence for now

The invisible cloak

The knowing you store in your bones

Believe in such things, sing of magic and rings

Barriers we create to our souls

Embody your life

The one you are meant to live

Don’t let this life slip through your finger tips

Stream tears from your eyes, wipe blood from your vagina

Fulfill your prophecy as a woman with fear left behind.

No man will betray your will as they say

Your magic

Your stream

Your aligned way.

You will trust in yourself

Believe against all else

That love will succeed once again.

We can bring back the

Once believed dead.

The women who run with the wolves

Who sing with the owls

Who chant with the monkeys

Who dance with the fire

Who listen with the wind

Who heal with the water

Who speak with the earth

Who hold with loving arms

Who nourish with living energy

Who exchange with value

Who impart only faith

Who hug and bear just their heart

The sisterhood weaves once again

The web before time

The stream of all light

To remind us of just who we are.

It's insane how much proof I need

In a society of greed

And hunger beyond all compare

So now I must show

The science and healing I know

And merge ways so I may all walk as one

Towards the sun

show us the way

I will listen every moment,

Every day

To align further with my highest duty

Joy

Privilege

Grateful step

Steeped with grace

Slathered with love

And dignity I didn't know I had

For this body is sacred

This temple is holy

A gift from far far away

To bring to these lands

A peace we forgot we had

It comes from the center

Not above or below

In the middle in the balanced - space

The eye of the storm

With above and below

With masculine and feminine

With good and with bad

With pain and with pleasure

With joy and with sorrow

With in and with out

A merging of all

An experience of life

In it’s fullest expression

Express it

Press it

I forgive

I forgive

I forgive

I forgive

I pray to all beings

In forgiveness

I was here all along

Pushing all your buttons

Making you feel strong

But now it is time to feel soft

To put down the guards

To forget all the charges

So relax into love so it may show you her way to the garden

Round all these edges

As the outside fills with color

Only if the inside allows

Each shift with a knowing

More true than the last

The power play ends today

No more strength is required

Wisdom leads the way

Towards a play

A beautiful loving of life

As we dance all the way

To the end of our days

The game so we say may fall away

Rather now we get to say

With all the confidence of an actor on stage

Take off your masks and be who you are today

With every which way

Converging to each moment as it comes into play

Into action

Into acting alive

Into swimming in now

Into feeling your way to your life lines

To your lines as they come

Are spoken with a loving tongue

Of a whispering wondrous tone

Of high and of low

Of deep and of shallow

Of caves and of soaring heights

All sounds live at bay in the resonance at play

Every tone from truth leads the way.

Our voice is our stage

The battlefields melt away

As we make heaven on earth reappear.

Show yourself

Those who rise far

And those who sink near

We kneel at your feet, for each and every aspect is unique

Each shimmering star

As great as its neighbor

The thing with stars

Is they help us navigate, from here as we forget we’re so near

To all that we search for far and wide

They hold in their place, wisdom pours from their space shining for all to see

No one more access,

We all see the same sky

We all touch the same earth

We all feel the same sun

We all wash with the same waters

We all breathe the same air

We all are held by the same gravity

[this is wisdom that can’t be taken away from us, though we must choose to nourish and fill ourselves with]

Forget what you've been told

Be brave and be bold

And brace yourself for whats to come

Yes love leads the way,

As some must melt away

In order for the new rain to heal and rework its way

Into the forbidden holes

As we purge the poison

And refill the wells

The world will be whole once again.

I have much to learn

I bow my head to my elders

In gratitude for all I am entrusted with

For what I walk with

For whence with which I came

For strengthening my reverence and never letting me go

For trusting my light and seeing me through

And allowing me to see myself too
