Saving silence

We rose as kudzu
Our of the irradiated soil
Thriving off the acid rains
We were never meant to survive
Sheared, undone, by the master's scythe
Hydra vines, each cut suffocating his unknowing blade
A toxic landscape, a voice
Forged of silence, tones of freedom
Echo in our hearts

Hidden dancers

Our shadows danced
As our bodies could not
Deep ancestral drum beats
Of the soul
Twirls of hope; leaping against the wall
Blended and blurring ecstatic pirouettes
The rhythm of a time before words
The universal word of the body
Shadows melting together; spilling love
Into our mouths
Waterfalls bathing spirits
In cool repose
We soak our bodies in each other
Melding our flesh...Our souls
In the ether
We move and shake
The earth herself trembled
White super nova
In that moment
We are one
We are nothing
