"We have come together to fall apart
The queen of chaos straddles
our corpora callosa
Reins of raw silk weaving our wills
into the corners of the collective mind
There's more to chaos than meets the mind
dialoguing with demons, goddesses
and gods
Wings lying unconscious at our sides
rise and shudder
If chaos were only chaos
we wouldn't sit in the darkness
of new moons choking back howls
If chaos were only chaos
this edge would rise up razor sharp
and take off our heads
Off with our heads!
We'd eat our cake and dance on the crumbs
Oh, God!
If chaos were only chaos
she'd take her spiked heel
and pierce our throats
Ripe verbs would do us all night
Words would fly from our lips like birds
in a formation never seen by humans
If chaos were only chaos
the words wouldn't matter
and the poem would always be there
Always be there
Be there
Be there
We have come together here
We have come together
We have come together to fall apart."

the warrior in me has awakened
decapitating demons
slashing fears
through tears
crushing judgements
while dancing and dreaming
the warrior in me
the blessed spiritual warrior in me
manifesting peace
