who of my people 

request a drum and bass rave at dawn as we call in everliving everloving evergiving determination 

who

renounces peace 

begs for conflict 

organises hammer and nail of petition 

to return us by principle of opposition 

to that impossible fact 

yes 

peace

who of my people

cry cry cry

who of my people longs without silence to be fucked like its science being discovered under apple trees in May 

who

who of my people longs without cure to be flayed of their mask by viscid yew berry while an orgy of constellations comes over and over and over again 

who of my people skewers crow feather with mistletoe

who of my people hurls blackthorn down river when they are in love

who of my people renders fats for medicines to cure cannibalism 

who of my people renders power obsolete

who of my people forges a cast iron brand

who of my people builds shelter for witches

who of my people integrates bitches

so broken they think they are all heart

i i i 

who of my people builds bonfires

who of my people fearlessly burns effigies 

who of my people is fearlessly prepared to birth fearless prodigies 

who has the cunt for that

cry cry cry

fearlessly leave behind

cry cry cry

fearlessly name every angel

fearlessly 

cry cry cry

i i i

fearlessly i will learn your ways to say

fearlessly i will earn your ways to stay

fearlessly i i i

who of my people

of my people

who?
