888: Queen of the Lion’s Gate
(Secret of Kells)
if i give you
my friendship
will you hold it in your h a n d
and not forget?
(no matter what they say)
when we die…
we become the l a n d
a land they can't own
a land all its own...
a land we call home
a land without a throne
when i am
a ghost
let me still post up
in your eardrum,
for a day love.
for a week, for a month...
for a year...
one revolution
a r o u n d the sun
when my blood runs cold
if i could be so bold as to say
i'll love you still
i wore my heart on my sleeve
like i made us 60 mil,
tattered sleeves,
in solidarity
with all who grieve me
let it be
many years from now
i wasn't peerless,
many of my peers got killed.
i wasn't fearless
but my teardrops made it
so i couldn't turn away
and i'll be here for the day
my blood spills
out into
the—
aethers…
don't say you never heard of me
'til they murder me,
mercilessly
cause in a
perfect world
i'll be there
breaking bread
with the children
of mercenaries
hatchets long since buried
e n e m i e s
long since married
it sounds barely possible,
but my child
times change
i'm not a fossil,
even if some
view me as an obstacle
i oscillate
while they ossify
measure my hope
with an oscilloscope,
we only spoke as ghosts
…the kids don't know…
i wanna say we…
but i gotta l-o-p-e lope
all i know is
i l-o-v-e -y-o-u
b-u-t…
we never knew
each other,
except maybe
someplace deep in the o c e a n
like lisa, i keep my head up
to the stars, as above so below
i leave this song
like a potion
for the love,
for the hope, love
for the motions you make
when you dance
tracing motions
on my eyelids
when i close them
i hope it's
not too late
to say we made it...
i'm patient
but i didn't plan
for an aeon of heartbreak
better late than never,
our fate,
shining bright
like a diamond
heavier than heaven,
i guess that means
they'll have to make
a new legend for us
call it the Adorers
I’m doing this…
All for You.
And our crew
From Africa to Nunavut
to the Galactic Center
and back again
Antarctica
to Atlanta, Magadha
Havana, Japan,
Atlantis and Peru
Maya to Jerusalem,
Inca to Mecca
China to Rome,
Persia, Mesopotamia… Ancient
Greece, Turtle Island,
(Indus Valley) the
Cradle of Civilization
and all who sing in
the language
of their own true tongue.
No matter what they say,
There’s nothing more Sacred than You
In your own truth.
Lion's Gate 2020,
Nativity
if i give you
my friendship
will you hold it in your hand
and not forget
no matter what they say
when we die…
we become…
the land
