Birth Myself Again Into The World Lyrics

Earthen throne beneath me

Pulsing sky above

Lightning cracking throughout the fascia

As I birth myself again into the world

Dark red cave enclosing

Silver pool to soothe

Wrinkled hands inviting

As I birth myself again into the world

As I birth myself again into the world

Snake emerges from my eyes my mouth

Jaguar tracks the scent between my legs

Owl appears in the mother dark

As I birth myself again into the world

As I birth myself again into the world

Initiations

An invitation to descend

Shedding skins that mark the passage you take

Fumbling

Flesh bound coven of dark devout womb song

In bodies that map the cosmos

There is no binary to be found in this galacta-nest

Lest they confine us to the biology of violence

That we have already had carved into our glistening

Ambiguous forms

Womb imagining defying the corporeal

Alchemilla cloaks herself around me

Rose entwines along my spine

Stellaria webs across the cosmic vastness

As I birth myself again into the world

As I birth myself again into the world

The cave

The river

The moon

The earth

The spiral

The threading

Birth myself again into the world

Birth myself again into the world

The markings

The passage

The symbols

The blood

The gathering

The elders

Birth myself again into the world

Birth myself again into the world

The screaming

The keening

The groaning

The well

The writhing

The crying

Birth myself again into the world

Birth myself again into the world

The hare came to me in the night

I followed her

She became the dog

Kinfolk dancing ribbons of knowing into my heart

The ground is moss and mud and grief and insight

Carried in the woven basket of my birth

Vastness of creation making

Raging waters in the small temple bowl

Drink it greedily and with no doubt

You know

Descent is the only way back up
