Feel all the feels
Suppress nothing
This is our opportunity
To heal old wounds
We’ve been here before
Since the day we were born
We cut our eye teeth
On sexism, racism, and greed
Every cell in our body
Has played it safe to survive
And yet we were violated
Mentally, socially, physically
Healing can only
Be done in real-time
Allow the rage to surface
We have collective rage
And collective sadness
And collective grief
And collective fear
…and collective love
Mothers know
We birth both Judas and Jesus
They are the same
Only the stories differ
If we don’t awaken
If we don’t dispel the myths
We live in a false reality
Easy to manipulate and change
Reality is in life, in aliveness
Pulsing and creative
Unalive the stories
And enjoy the freedom
Of a love that is unending
Of a world without judgment
Of an authentic, natural self
And meet the One who breathes us…
